Abstract
In the article historical facts are summed up painting a broad picture of the Armenian presence in the Czechoslovak Republic during the period from 1900 to the 1940s.
Although Armenian communities existed in Eastern European countries, it seems Armenian immigrants had for centuries 'missed' Czechoslovakia. However, Western Armenian immigrants settled there at the beginning of the 20th century, particularly in the capital, Prague. More came during WWI. In the 1920s more than fifty Armenian students attended Prague University, but soon most of them left the country. The remaining Armenians, a dozen or so, could not form a stable community, and some were exiled to Siberia after Czechoslovakia became a Socialistic Republic.
Several cultural ties between the Armenians and Czechs dating from this period are also revealed in the article.
