Sudetenland is a region located in the Czech Republic, primarily along the border between the Czech Republic and Germany. Historically, it was inhabited by ethnic Germans and became a significant point of contention in the lead-up to World War II. The term is often associated with the Munich Agreement of 1938, which allowed Nazi Germany to annex the region. Today, the area is known for its mountainous landscape and cultural heritage.
Germany took over Sudentenland on September 7th, 1938 peacefully after the German Sudeten Party demanded union with Germany. The Czechs were persuaded to hand over Sudentenland.
