From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Antonín Švehla (April 15, 1873December 12, 1933) was a Czechoslovakian politician. He served three terms as the prime minister of Czechoslovakia. He is regarded as one of the most important political figures of the First Chechoslovak Republic; he was the leader of the Agrarian Party, which was dominant within the petka, which was largely his own invention. Svehla is also credited with the admirable slogan of the petka: "We have agreed that we will agree."
