Selice (, formerly ; ) is a village and municipality in à  aþa District, in the Nitra Region of south-west Slovakia.
In historical records the village was first mentioned in 1078. In the 16th century, it was destroyed by Ottoman Turks. After the Habsburg monarchy collapse in November 1918, Czechoslovak troops occupied the area, later acknowledged internationally by the Treaty of Trianon. Between 1938 and 1945 Selice nad Dunajom once more became part of Miklós Horthy's Hungary through the First Vienna Award. From 1945 until the Velvet Divorce, it was part of Czechoslovakia. Since then it has been part of Slovakia. In 1946, the separate (and larger) village of à  Ã³k (Slovak; Sók or Magyarsók in Hungarian, à  Ã³ka in Romani) became part of Selice.
