A Matica or Matice or Matitsa or Matka is a Slavic concept of a foundation which promotes national culture and gained prominence during the 19th-century romantic nationalism.
The Slavic words “matica”, “matice” or “matka” have the same etymological origin as Old French “matrice” or Latin “mātrīx” and are synonymous with them; in this context, the meaning is similar to the use of the term “matrice” in Christianity.
