Czech Republic
Discover Czech Republic
In the heart of Europe, the Czech lands have been inhabited for thousands of years, with evidence of Celtic and Germanic settlements dating back to antiquity. By the 9th century, Slavic tribes, particularly the Czechs, formed a cohesive state, led by the legendary Přemyslid dynasty.
The 14th-century reign of Charles IV, a Czech king and Holy Roman Emperor, marked a golden age. Prague, the capital, flourished as a center of culture and learning, with Charles University established in 1348.
The turbulent 20th century witnessed the birth of Czechoslovakia after World War I, a nation that embodied the dreams of independence. However, the Munich Agreement of 1938 and subsequent Nazi occupation shattered this dream.
Yet, the Velvet Revolution of 1989, led by figures like Václav Havel, ushered in a new era of democracy, culminating in the peaceful dissolution of Czechoslovakia into the Czech Republic and Slovakia in 1993.
Today, the Czech Republic stands as a thriving European nation, celebrated for its rich cultural heritage, medieval towns, and vibrant cities.
