Jewish life in the region centred on Munkacs which was 50% Jewish in 1914.<\/p>\n<p>Geographically the Carpathian Mountains stretch from the Vienna Woods arching round through Transylvania to the Serbian border. The unique society of the Carpathians was centred on the administrative region of Subcarpathian \u2018Rus, which was between the First and Second World War part of Czechoslovakia, but that that society spilled over the administrative borders into areas of Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania. If we include the number of Boys from these regions the number who came from the Carpathians rises to approximately 250.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_17594\" style=\"width: 730px\" class=\"wp-caption
