Similar emancipation efforts in the German population and the competition and rivalry between the two national groups further contributed to the "associational boom". By the end of the 19th century the Czech Lands had the largest number of charitable and voluntary organisations in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In the 20 years between the two World Wars the Czech Lands became part of a new Czechoslovak Republic. Czechoslovakia was one of the world's most advanced industrial-agrarian countries, and the Constitution of February 1920 had guaranteed that the new Republic would also be one of the few states in Europe to have a genuine parliamentary democracy.
