    AnnotationThis article examines attempts to construct "Czechoslovak" national identity in the wake of the World War I through the creation of new celebrations and holidays. Drawing on archival material as well as a variety of contemporary books, newspapers, and pamphlets, the analysis reveals that the bourgeois, predominantly Czech rhetoric associated with these holidays, indeed, with the state itself, limited the attraction they exerted not only on the non-state-forming peoples of the countries, especially Germans and Hungarians, but also on the communists and, increasingly, some Slovaks.
