Nation Builders

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

The lives and legacies of five remarkable individuals who founded their nations. Tomas Masaryk arrived in Prague at Christmas 1918 as Czechoslovakia's first president, uniting the Czechs and Slovaks. But the triumph was shortlived - Hitler invaded and partitioned Czechoslovakia, the Soviets stuck it back together, and in 1992 the Czechs and Slovaks chose to go their separate ways. With Charles Wheeler. Producer Jolyon Jenkins. Shortened repeat at 9.30pm
