Czechoslavak Independence


Sunday marked the 89th anniversary of Czech independence after the break up the Austro-Hungarian empire. Tomáš Masaryk was elected in 1920 and held the office for 15 years until poor health forced his resignation.

WWII ended what we call here "the First Republic" barely 20 years after it began.
