Czechoslovakia

Czechoslovakia

Czechoslovakia is comprised of two nationalities; that being the Czechs and the Slovaks. It would be commonplace to assume that they would be an equal people before the law, but it only takes one look at the inner workings of the country to dismiss that as ‘foolish idealism’. They are led by the Czech Max Lobkowicz, and it is his family that dominates the government. While they are not officially a monarchy, the court-like culture shown in Prague would leave many tourists surprised at that realization. With good reason, the Slovaks are not content to be second-class citizens. Tensions are brewing in the nation of two nationalities as the nobles in Czechia catch wind of a large nationalist movement in Slovakia propagated by the Hungarian government. On the Czechia side of things, they are not left in a secure position either. The Austrians, as the Hapsburgs consolidate their power, can only help but to eye their former Bohemian possession. As all of Czechoslovakia’s neighbors — and even domestic elements — seem to wish harm upon Lobkowicz’s regime, the chances of him keeping his power fall drastically. It would require a master statesman for this nation divided to unite once again.
