Party of National Unity (Czechoslovakia)
The Party of National Unity was a party created on 21 November 1938 in the Czech part of Czechoslovakia after the occupation of large parts of the country by Germany and Hungary as a last attempt to unify forces to save Czechoslovakia from disappearing. Its Slovak equivalent in the Slovak part of Czechoslovakia was the Hlinka's Slovak Peoples Party - Party of Slovak National Unity created on 8 November.
It included most of all previous Czech political parties - absolute majority of Republican Party of Farmers and Peasants, National Unification, Czechoslovak Traders' Party, National Fascist Community, minor parties like National League, Czechoslovak Christian Social Party, National People's Party and part of Czechoslovak People's Party and Czechoslovak National Social Party
Ideologically the party was corporatist and quasi-fascist. The Party's chairman was the Prime Minister Rudolf Beran.
The party was forcibly dissolved after the creation of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia in March 1939. A part of the membership created the Národní souručenství, the only Czech political organization permitted by the Germans in the Protectorate.
