+The Skoda company started in 1869 when Emil Ritter von Skoda bought a machine factory in Plzen, where he had served as chief engineer for three years, from the Waldstein family. In 1890, an arms factory was added to make machine guns for the Austro-Hungarian Army.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emil_von_%C5%A0koda</ref> In 1899, the factory was incorporated into the joint-stock company Skoda Works and by World War I, it was the leading arms manufacturer for the Austro-Hungarian Empire supplying cannons, guns, small arms and other weapons for both the Austro-Hungarian Army and the Austro-Hungarian Navy. The war caused a significant expansion in the company’s armaments production, but when the Austro-Hungarian Empire was dismantled, the company was in the newly formed nation of Czechoslovakia. While this event marked a shift towards focusing on consumer products to build up the industry of this infant nation, the arms production continued with local designs such as the [[LT-38 (Family)|LT-38]] tank and export designs such as a 40mm naval AAA cannon. The new nation was land-locked, but their experience as a supplier for the Austro-Hungarian Navy allowed Skoda to make this new cannon for export.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%A0koda_Works#1859%E2%80%931899:_establishment_of_%C5%A0koda</ref>
