The Province of German Bohemia (German: Provinz Deutschböhmen [ˈdɔʏtʃbøːmən] ; Czech: Německé Čechy) was an unrecognised province in Bohemia (in the present-day Czech Republic), self-proclaimed by a group of German-speaking deputies of the Imperial Council of Austria on 29 October 1918 at the end of the First World War. With the proclamation, the German-speaking deputies from northern and western parts of Bohemia attempted to secede from the First Czechoslovak Republic (which had declared independence from Austria-Hungary on 18 October 1918), and sought to attach themselves to the unrecognised Republic of German-Austria. The proclaimers laid claim to parts of northern and western Bohemia, at that time primarily populated by ethnic Germans. Important population centers within the envisioned province were Reichenberg (now Liberec), Aussig (Ústí nad Labem), Teplitz-Schönau (Teplice), Dux (Duchcov), Eger (Cheb), Marienbad (Mariánské Lázně), Karlsbad (Karlovy Vary), Gablonz an der Neiße (Jablonec nad Nisou), Leitmeritz (Litoměřice), Brüx (Most) and Saaz (Žatec). The land claimed for the province would later be associated with the "Sudetenland".
