The Austria-Hungarian Empire had their hands full against the Russians in the fall of 1914 outside of Warsaw, Poland. By the winter of 1915, the defense of the Fortress Przemyśl took its toll as harsh winter conditions set in. The embedded Czech soldiers fought off the Russian siege, frostbite, starvation, and disease while deep in the Carpathian Mountains. The Battle of Dukla was the prelude to the utter devastation and horrors that would become common place on World War One battlefronts. Disillusionment of Czech forces under poor Austria-Hungarian leadership would lead to mass desertion and defection to Entente armies.A show by podcastnik.com — visit the site for all projects and news.

The end of World War One saw the creation of Czechoslovakia and the first republic. The Czechs were finding their collective identity and global footing when the Third Reich appeared on the scene. The Czechs and Slovaks were bartered away for the hope of "peace in our time" to appease Hitler. What would follow would lead Czechoslovakia back to protectorate status under Nazi Germany and later, the Soviet Union. It was the end of the first republic and an end of an era.
