AB - An 1870 memorandum |by Rev. Václav Štulc to the Prime Minister Alfred Józef Potocki Reverend Václav Štulc, a Czech independence activist, a Polonophile, was pretty familiar with aristocratic elites in Galicia. He maintained particularly close contacts with princes Lubomirski from Przeworsk. After the Austrian Empire had turned into the dualistic Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, he joined the circle of those Czechs who wanted Vienna to acknowledge their aspirations to independence or grant them the status of the third power in the country next to Austria and Hungary. Štulc wrote a sort of a memorandum to Alfred Józef Potocki, the then Prime Minister in the Austrian government, requesting his support for the Czech efforts. In that letter he justified the legitimacy of establishing Austria-Hungary-Bohemia and he warned against Czech separatism which could turn towards Germany or Russia, which could bring about a serious military conflict.
