Eighty years ago, in September 1941, Reinhard Heydrich became Acting Reich Protector and immediately after his arrival in Prague he declared martial law in the Protectorate. The so-called First Heydrichiad was a reaction to the rise of the resistance movement, followed by hundreds of death sentences and thousands of arrests. At the same time, however, Heydrich attempted to break the morale of the Czech population with generous social programmes for industrial workers.
