Monday is the 75th anniversary of the signing of the Munich Agreement
allowing the Nazis to annex Czechoslovakia’s Sudetenland, border areas
chiefly inhabited by ethnic Germans. The deal was agreed on September 29
1938 but actually signed in the early hours of September 30 by the leaders
of the UK, France, Germany and Italy. Czechoslovakia was not represented at
the talks and considered the deal a betrayal on the part of its nominal
allies the UK and France. Six months later the Nazis took over the whole of
Bohemia and Moravia.
