This chapter discusses how Czechoslovakia was incorporated into the Soviet sphere of influence after World War II and was then turned into a Communist state. The author shows that, from the outset, policymakers in both Moscow and Washington tended to regard Czechoslovakia as lying within the Soviet orbit, partly because of the positions taken by Czechoslovakia's wartime government-in-exile. By the same token, most of the Czechoslovak democratic politicians in the "third Czechoslovak republic" (1945-1948), haunted by the German menace, were ready to compromise freedom for security, the source of which they could see only in Moscow. In this way, they played into the Czechoslovak Communists' hands.
