Yes, all of them, seriously. So I'll let they quiz carry on.

Hungary was my last one, but I can't say I struggled at all. Quite easy, really.

Mind you, it might have helped that I did a "name the first nine World Cup Finalists quiz" about half an hour ago. :D

Did Czechoslavakia even exist in 1934?

Yes. Czechoslovakia was what the Munich Agreement with Hitler (1938) was all about.

Czechoslovakia came into being in 1918, when the post WW 1 winning powers created the new Europe and Middle East.
