Czechoslovakia was a sovereign state in Central Europe that existed from October 1918, when it declared its independence from the Austro-Hungarian Empire (visit link) until its peaceful dissolution into the Czech Republic and Slovakia on 1 January 1993.

From 1939 to 1945, following its forced division and partial incorporation into Nazi Germany, the state did not de facto exist but its government-in-exile continued to operate.

From 1948 to 1990, Czechoslovakia was part of the Soviet communist bloc (visit link) .

In 1989, as Marxist–Leninist governments and communism were ending all over Europe, citizens of Czechoslovakia peacefully deposed their government in the Velvet Revolution (visit link) In 1993, Czechoslovakia split into the two sovereign states of the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
