After the Germans sliced off the Sudetenland and occupied the rest of Czechoslovakia, they divided it up and what is now the Czech Republic (less the Sudetenland which was added back in after the war) was administered by the Nazis as the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. Unlike central Poland around Warsaw which was administered as the General Government while the northern and western areas occupied by the Germans after the Polish invasion were to be incorporated into the Greater German Reich.

In short, the General Government was run by the Germans, the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, on the other hand, was run by a puppet Czech government (although Germans in the Protectorate were exempt from control of the civilian government.
