Today is Independent Czechoslovak State Day. The First Czechoslovak Republic was founded as an independent nation (from Austria-Hungary) on October 28, 1918 in Wenceslas Square at the tail end of World War I. The Czech flag was also established around this time! Some key figures are the well known Tomรกลก Garrigue Masaryk and Edvard Beneลก. Masaryk was elected the country's first president in 1920 and after being re-elected twice, was succeeded by Beneลก. The First Czechoslovak Republic ended when Czechoslovakia had to cede Sudetenland to Germany and other parts of Slovakia and Silesia. The Second Czechoslovak Republic only lasted about about half of a year before the country was invaded and occupied by Germany in 1939.Source: [[www.radio.cz/en/static/october28 & www.czechclass101.com &]]
