Corrected entry: Lazlo says on the first confrontation with Major Strasser: 'I'm a Czechoslovakian', and Strasser answers: 'You were. Now you're a subject of the German Reich'. If that means even the slightest connection with being 'citizen' then it is wrong. The movies legend suggests that Lazlo is from Prague - which in 1941 was in the Protectorate of Bohemia (only the Sudetenland was part of Germany). Not even the Germans living there were subjects of the Reich. They were so called Volksdeutsche and could for instance not be drafted in the Army. The Czechs of course had even less rights.

Correction: During World War II, Czechoslovakia ceased to exist and was divided into the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia of the Third Reich and the newly declared Slovak Republic. This qualifies him as a subject of the Third Reich. And a "subject" does not imply any citizenship. It implies that you are under someone's control/rule, like a "serf".
