A good one here. I'm glad to see you mention Poland and Hungary piggybacking on this situation for their own self-aggrandizement. This wasn't as simple a situation as most people think. Take care.

Great, Stefan. I am looking forward to your explanation of what happened in Ruthenia. I had heard that it was a nine-month state, not a one day state, but I could be wrong. Thanks....Stephan

the region of carpathian ruthenia lasted for nine months, but that was as a province of czechoslovakia, the independent state (unrecognised) was proclaimed on the 15th of march 1939, and resistance was crushed 3 days later, hope this helped.

Keep it up!

Stefan, what were the reasons that Hungary and Poland took portions of Czechoslovakia, was it because these areas were largely populated by Poles and Hungarians majorities, or were these border regions also disputed beforehand? There seems to be more to this story.

@@Pbirv The part that Poland took is quite small, which seems to me, that it was more likely disputed territory. I think it was a mistake, Poland should've made an alliance with Czechoslovakia, together they would've been stronger in the face of German aggression.

@@artmcteagle Unfortunately the Polish leaders at the time, notably Field Marshal Eduard Smigly-Rydz, had a bit of hubris, partly from turning back the Red Army in front of Warsaw in 1920. Pretty much every one of Poland’s neighbors at the time had some kind of territorial dispute with them. Lithuania in fact was legally at war with Poland until 1938 over Vilnius, known to the Poles as Wilno. Even to the extent that any letter or package between the two countries had to go through a third country. And Poland and Czechoslovakia fought a brief war in 1919 over Teschen.

Occupying Czechia in March 1939 (betraying the 1938 Munich Agreement) was probably the biggest mistake A.H. made before the outbreak of WW2. This move ensured the end of any good relations between Germany and Britain, France. Prior to German occupation of Czechia Germany was seen by the Western powers as the lesser evil compared to the USSR and an anti-Soviet alliance between Germany, Poland, Britain and France was a real possibility.

Think you downplay Nazi aggression. It was more there than Soviet aggression. Don't get me wrong, Stalin wasa horrible leader but he focussed on socialism in one country focussing his attention to his own country. The pact with Nazi Germany he did so secure his country. Of course with horrible results for everyone that came to live under Soviet rule.

@@HistoryHustle The aggressiveness of the A.H.'s regime was not that clear to the Western powers before the German occupation of Czechia. Few in the West took A.H.'s words in his book seriously. The fact that Germany occupied an ethnically non-German territory made it clear to all that A.H.'s ambitions are not limited to areas inhabited by Germans.

Interesting thing, that most of Czechoslovak defense industry was in German-majority lands. Even though not directly war-related, this could well deserve a video of its own.
