The (First) Czechoslovak Republic was a binational, multi-ethnic bourgeois democratic state in Central Europe. The republic was proclaimed by the Czechoslovak National Council in 1918 following the Dissolution of Austria-Hungary; and ended twenty years later in 1938, when much of Czechoslovakia was forcibly ceded over to Germany, Hungary, and Poland via the Munich Agreement.
