The second part of the study looksat the issue of nostrification of a transport company in the aftermath of World War I. Based on a caseof a specific company, the study analyses its causes, course and consequences, while placing it in thehistorical context of the making of so-called greater cities. It examines the economic and politicalmotives that lead to the decision to move the transportation company's headquarters to Czechoslovakia even before being prompted to do so by the state authorities. It follows the impacts of the war on the running of the company, and the gradual permeating of members of the local authorities into the company's board of directors. Taking into account the transformation of the Ostrava city agglomerationinto a modern metropolis, it analyses the factors that culminated in the local authority of MoravskáOstrava joining the transport company as the majority shareholder, as well as the consequences forthe subsequent development of the company.
