Czechoslovakia / German occupation

Before the Munich Agreement of September 28, 1938, the political districts of Moravský Beroun and Olomouc belonged to Czechoslovakia .

In the period from October 1 to October 10, 1938, German troops occupied this area up to the agreed demarcation line .

The political district of Olomouc from then on bore the former German-Austrian name Olmütz-Land .
