Summary/Abstract: In 1918 Austria-Hungary fell apart and many successor states were created, including Czechoslovakia. Ruthenians from northeastern Slovakia and Subcarpathian Ruthenia became part of the Czechoslovak republic. Subcarpathian Ruthenia was endowed with autonomous status approved at the Paris Peace Conference and inscribed in two international treaties Saint-Germain, Trianon and in Czechoslovakia’s constitution. But Subcarpathian Ruthenia did not acquire full autonomous status until October 1938. Pressured by Nazi Germany and its ally Hungary, Czechoslovakia was forced to cede to those two countries parts of its territory until it ceased to exist entirely in March 1939.
