  • Anatomy of a Crisis
    Page 7 Chapter 2 Munich: Anatomy of A Crisis eptember 28, 1938, “Black Wednesday,” dawned on a frightened Europe. Since the spring Adolf Hitler had spoken often about the Sudetenland, the western part of Czechoslovakia. Many of the 3 Smillion German-speaking people who lived there had complained that they were being badly mistreated by the Czechs and Slovaks. Cooperating closely with Sudeten Nazis, Hitler at first simply demanded that the Czechs give the German-speakers within their borders self-government. Then, he upped the ante. If the Czechs did not hand the Sudetenland to him by October 1, 1938, he would order his well-armed and trained soldiers to attack Czechoslovakia, destroy its army, and seize the Sudetenland. The Strategic Location of the Sudetenland Germany’s demand quickly reverberated throughout the European continent. Many countries, tied down by various commitments and alliances, pondered whether—and how—to respond to Hitler’s latest threat. France had signed a treaty to defend the Czechs and Britain had a treaty with France; the USSR had promised to defend Czechoslovakia against a German attack. Britain, in particular, found itself in an awkward position. To back the French and their Czech allies would almost guarantee the outbreak of an unpredictable and potentially ruinous continental war; yet to refrain from confronting Hitler over the Sudetenland would mean victory for the Germans. In an effort to avert the frightening possibilities, a group of European leaders converged at Munich Background to the Crisis The clash between Germany and Czechoslovakia over the Sudetenland had its origins in the Versailles Treaty of 1919.

  • Securitas Im Perii
    STUDIES Jiří Plachý The Rutha affair and the trial against the Werner Weiss group in autumn 1937 On 13 August 1937, Liberec police detained the young Sudetendeutsche Partei (Su- securitas imperii deten German Party – SdP) radical Wilhelm Purm.1 A search of his home revealed a number of subversive documents including material to prepare boys for induc- tion into the Hitlerjugend (Hitler Youth) as well as the organisation’s belt and knife. Seeing as he served as a youth instructor for the Deutscher Turnverband (German Gymnastics Union – DTV), there were justified grounds for believing he was illegal- ly providing the young men under his tutelage with paramilitary training. For this reason, he was charged under paragraph 2 of Law No. 50/1923 Sb. on the Protection of the Republic with the criminal offence of making preparations for a plot against the state. The penalty ranged from one to five years’ imprisonment, or from five to ten years if the crime had been committed in particularly aggravating circumstances. The young SdP paramilitary – who despite a full police record had only ever spent 24 hours behind bars – was evidently taken aback by the prospect of such a long sentence. During questioning on 25 August, he denied accusations of homosexual activity – at that time a crime – which he was accused of indulging in as a member of the DTV. In his emphatic denials, however, he informed the police that during a DTV gathering in 1935 he had been told by a person whose identity was unknown to him that the then leader of the Jeschenken­‑Iser Turngau (the Ještěd­‑Jizera chapter of the DTV), an architect by the name of Heinrich Rutha, was ein warmer Bruder, literally a “warm brother” – German slang for an older gay man who makes advances on younger men.2 1 Wilhelm Purm, born 27 April 1918 in Mladá Boleslav.

The Central Powers (Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire) fought against the Allied powers (Great Britain, France, and Russia). In November 1914, Turkey sided with the Central Powers; in 1915, Italy joined the Allies. 4/24/1915 The Armenian Genocide In the first year of World War I, in the course of war between Turkey and Russia in the Armenian provinces of Turkey, the Turks questioned the Armenians' loyalties and drove them out of their homes. At least 1 million Armenians, about half of the Armenian population in Turkey, were murdered in the expulsion by the Turks. 11/2/1917 Balfour Declaration The British Foreign Secretary, Lord Arthur James Balfour, proclaimed Britain's support of the creation of a national home for the Jews in Palestine. This declaration, given after British forces had already taken control of the southern part of Palestine and were about to occupy its north, transformed the Zionist vision into a political program that seemed attainable. 11/7/1917 Communist Revolution in Russia In response to Russia's defeat on the front, Czar Nicholas II was dethroned in a revolution in March 1917 and a new government of mixed liberal-conservative complexion came into being. As political deadlock and defeats on the front continued, the socialists gained in popularity and their radical wing, the Bolshevik party, under Lenin, called for immediate peace and apportionment of land to the peasants.

Leaflets containing these words were found in the mailboxes of the citizens of Dubi, CSFR in September, 1992. I. INTRODUCION Recently, a group of Germans who formerly lived in what is now the Czech and Slovak Federation (CSFR) have been pressing the Ger- man government to seek compensation from the CSFR2 for land and personal property expropriated by Czechoslovakia at the end of World War II. This land was formerly inhabited and owned by Germans who were expelled at the end of World War II pursuant to the Potsdam Protocol However, the conduct and agreements entered into by Germa- ny and the CSFR beginning in 1919 to the present do not legally sup- port the claim for compensation which the Sudeten Germans4 have pas- sionately pleaded since the end of World War II.
