   Extractions: Lying in Central Europe, the Czech Republic became an independent state in 1993 when Czechoslovakia was divided in two. With many castles, palaces, churches and historic monuments throughout the country, the Czech Republic is a picturesque and interesting country. The capital is Prague, a wonderful old city that largely escaped the ravages of the Second World War. Most of the country is hilly or mountainous making it ideal for skiing and hiking. Most visitors to the Czech Republic head for Prague. Although Prague rightly takes first place on any sightseeing tour, the Czech Republic has much more to offer. There are over three thousand castles as well as beautiful Gothic and Baroque churches and palaces. There are also many natural springs and spas where people go to take the waters. In winter there is skiing in the mountains. Who Is Czech Republic Popular With?

   Extractions: CULTURE Czechoslovakia's main cultural achievements took place primarily in the Middle Ages and after the 18th century. In the intervening three centuries, control by Germans resulted in the suppression of native achievement and forced many artists, musicians, and philosophers to live abroad. The 14th century laid the basis for a national style in painting. The 19th century witnessed a revival and further development of painting, music, and sculpture. The National Theatre in Prague (1883) and the Bratislava National Theatre are also held in high regard throughout Europe. The 1960's saw a return to prominence of Czechoslovakian films. "The Shop on Main Street", (1966), and "Loves of a Blonde" (1967), won general acclaim in the West. In the late 1980s the Central Council of Trade Unions, the governing body of the Revolutionary Trade Union Movement, encompassed 97 percent of the labor force. It was charged specifically with encouraging productivity, informing the government about labor needs, and providing recreation for workers. Membership and monthly dues were generally compulsory. The Czech Republic retained the largest libraries and document and treasure collections from the former Czechoslovakia. In particular, the National Museum and its library, the library of the Charles University, and the library of the Czech Republic all have extensive collections. In addition, the Premonstratensian Monastery of Strahov in Prague is well known for its collection of notable documents and treasures.

   Extractions: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search This article is about the Culture of the Czech Republic The Czech Republic is located in Europe, bordered by Poland to the north, Germany to the west, Slovakia to the east, and Austria to the south. The Czech Republic used to be Czechoslovakia; but changed when it divided into two countries. Czech people celebrate Christmas every year, beginning with a dinner on December 24. The tables for this dinner can only be set for an even number of guests, because an odd number will bring bad luck. All of the lights in the house must be turned off until the first star comes out, and when it does, the dinner may commence. The first person to leave the table when the meal is finished will be the first person to die that year - this is why everyone must stand up at the same time. Easter, or "Velikonoce" (meaning "great nights"), is a very cheerful and lighthearted holiday in the Czech Republic. Red is a very commonly-worn color during this time, because it symbolizes joy, health, happiness, and new life that comes with spring. Families decorate Easter eggs elaborately together, and a nationwide Easter egg contest is held in Prague and other Czech cities on Easter. Another Easter tradition is the whipping of other's legs with the pomlázka, or pussy willow twigs. Pussy willow twigs are braided and painted with bright colors and then are used by young boys to beat the back of girls' legs. This long-standing tradition is thought to bring health and youth to young girls.

This is Czech culture from an everyman point of view - it's not an encyclopedia version of culture - that's too boring Family is a key element of Czech Republic culture and is generally placed ahead of work. Traditional families are quite the norm with mothers cooking and raising the children while fathers work. It's common to see fathers pushing strollers on the weekend giving mom a break. Extended Czech families are fascinating. They have an incredible range of experiences. For example, many grandparents have stories of war and very hard times while their children grew up solely behind the Iron Curtain. Meanwhile, younger generations have experienced only capitalism and free speech.

    Extractions: Time and Date The Czechoslovak socialist republic of the 1980s provided any number of contrasts with the Czechoslovak Republic, the multinational Central European state formed in 1918 from the dismantled Austro-Hungarian Empire. Large communities of ethnic minorities, some with strong irredentist leanings, were a major force in the First Republic's social and political life. As a result of the expulsion of most of the Germans after World War II and the ceding of Carpatho-Ukraine to the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia had become predominantly a nation of Czechs and Slovaks, with small minorities of Germans, Hungarians, Poles, and Ukrainians. Even though Czechoslovakia's ethnic makeup was simplified, the division between Czechs and Slovaks remained a potent social and political force. During the 1950s and 1960s, planners had put intensive efforts into redressing the economic imbalance between the Czech lands and Slovakia. Interwar society in Czechoslovakia was a complex amalgam of large landholders, farmers, tenants, landless laborers, and specialists in the nationside and of many major entrepreneurs, a large industrial proletariat, hundreds of thousands of small-scale manufacturers, a various intelligentsia, shopkeepers, tradesmen, and craftsmen in the city. Nevertheless, extremes of wealth and poverty then typical in so much of Eastern Europe were largely absent. Czech Republic
