Activities History Culture Environment Getting Around Czech Republic History The arrival of the Slavs in the 5th and 6th centuries saw the beginning of the Czechs' chequered history. Its tribes adopted Christianity and united in the short-lived Great Moravian Empire (830-906), which came to include western Slovakia, Bohemia, Silesia, and parts of eastern Germany, south-eastern Poland and northern Hungary. Towards the end of the 9th century, the Czechs seceded to form the independent state of Bohemia. Prague Castle was founded in the 870s by Prince Borivoj as the main seat of the Premysl dynasty, though the Premysls failed to unite the squabbling Czech tribes until 993. In 950, the German King Otto I conquered Bohemia and incorporated it into his Holy Roman Empire. In 1212, the pope granted the Premsyl prince Otakar I the right to rule as king. His son and successor Otakar II tried to claim the title of Holy Roman Emperor as well as king of the Czechs, but the imperial crown went to Rudolph Hapsburg. Strong rule under the Hapsburgs brought with it Bohemia's Golden Age. Prague grew into one of Europe's largest and most important cities, and was ornamented with fine Gothic landmarks. The late 14th and early 15th centuries witnessed an influential Church-reform movement, the Hussite Revolution, led by the Czech Jan Zizka who was inspired by the teachings of Jan Hus. The spread of Hussitism had threatened the Catholic status quo all over Europe. In 1420 combined Hussite forces successfully defended Prague against the first of a series of anti-Hussite crusades, which had been launched by authority of the pope. Though they were up against larger and better equipped forces, the Hussites repeatedly went on the offensive and raided deep into Germany, Poland and Austria.

Czech Republic HISTORY The Czech Republic was the western part of the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic. Formed into a common state after World War I (October 18, 1918), the Czechs, Moravians, and Slovaks remained united for more than 75 years. On January 1, 1993, the two republics split to form two separate states. The Czechs lost their national independence to the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1620 at the Battle of White Mountain and, for the next 300 years, were ruled by the Austrian Monarchy. With the collapse of the monarchy at the end of World War I, the independent country of Czechoslovakia was formed, encouraged by, among others, U.S. President Woodrow Wilson. Despite cultural differences, the Slovaks shared with the Czechs similar aspirations for independence from the Hapsburg state and voluntarily united with the Czechs. The Slovaks were not at the same level of economic and technological development as the Czechs, but the freedom and opportunity found in Czechoslovakia enabled them to make strides toward overcoming these inequalities. However, the gap never was fully

Czech Republic History Educational Travel PRAGUE As a refreshingly alternative learning experience to the classroom, why not take your history students to the attractive, exciting and stimulating city of Prague? Its inhabitants have experienced a declaration of independence, Nazi control, brainwashing, communism and capitalist democracy - and all this was just in the 20th century. Charter a boat for a dinner cruise along the River Vltava and marvel at the multitude of monuments and statues along the way. After a guided tour of the historic sites of Prague, spend an afternoon soaking up the breathtaking views from the magnificent cliff-top outlook of Prague Castle. With a thousand-year history and breathtaking scale, qualifying it as the largest ancient castle in the world, Prague Castle is the indisputable centrepiece of the Czech Republic. No matter how long or short a tour you can manage, you will never be short of things to do and see in this historical capital. And with Good King Wenceslas as its patron saint, perhaps a winter visit combined with the Christmas Markets would be just what your class needs for added motivation over the festive period. Groups are based on the outskirts of Prague in the well-managed and fully modernised Hotel Rhea. The Rhea is a large, youth group friendly hotel in pleasant surroundings with good public transport links to the city centre.

Czech Republic History Czechs hitting the heights again The Czech Republic has only existed since 1993 but have inherited Czechoslovakia's rich football history, which stretches back into the days of the Austro-Hungarian empire. Chaotic ending With many young players receiving their training through Ceská ulicka, a form of skilful, fast-moving street football, Czechoslovakia made an auspicious international debut, beating Yugoslavia 7-0 in the opening round of the 1920 Olympics en route to reaching the final. Sadly the tournament ended in chaos as, trailing the Belgians 2-0 after 35 minutes of the final, the Czechs left the pitch in protest at what they perceived as biased refereeing. Italian success This controversy ultimately proved a minor footnote in Czechoslovakia's football history as the FIFA World Cup assumed global pre-eminence ahead of the Olympics. With a wonderfully talented goalkeeping captain in František Plánicka and two fearsomely skilled attackers in Oldrich Nejedlý, the tournament's top scorer, and Antonín Puc, they reached the final along with the hosts, in 1934. Late defeat Their Prague-bred short passing game saw them dominate the home side in the final in Rome and Puc gave the Czechs a deserved lead in the 70th minute before, just eight minutes from time, Plánicka misjudged a Raimondo Orsi shot-cross and the Italians were level. Tiredness set in during extra time and Czechoslovakia succumbed 2-1.
