YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia was a puppet state established by Nazi Germany in March 1939 after it had occupied the Czech lands and separated Slovakia from the Czechoslovak Republic. It covered the majority of what is now the Czech Republic, with Prague as its capital.
The Protectorate was headed by a Reich Protector, who was appointed by the German government. The first Reich Protector was Konstantin von Neurath, followed by Reinhard Heydrich, and later by Kurt Daluege and Wilhelm Frick.
Under Nazi rule, the Protectorate was subject to harsh repression and persecution, with the German government using the territory's resources for its own benefit. The Protectorate was also used as a source of forced labor for German war industries.
The Protectorate was dissolved in May 1945, following the German defeat in World War II, and the Czechoslovak government was re-established.
