THE AGRICULTURAL SITUATION IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA. 
GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION. 
The Republic of Czechoslovakia is made up of five districts. 
Three of these districts, Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia, were formerly 
part of the Austrian Monarchy; to which part of the county of 
Ratibor was added from German Silesia. For clearness in this 
report, the inhabitants of these districts are called Czechs (see page 
69). The two remaining districts were formerly part of the 
Kingdom of Hungary; Slovakia, which for the most part is inhabited 
by the Slovaks, a race closely allied to the Czechs, and Ruthenia, 
which is inhabited to a large extent by the sub-Carpathian Russians. 
The inhabitants of the latter district will be spoken of as Ruthenians.
