Politics
The Czech Republic is linked to the rich historical
tradition of the Czech Crown Lands, especially with the
democratic heritage of 1918-38 , when the Czechoslovak
Republic was one of the most advanced nations. At the time,
it was considered an island of democracy and civil liberties
in Central Europe and an active partner cooperating
internationally with democratic countries.
Geography
The Czech Republic is a landlocked country in the middle of
Europe. Rather than as a country in the middle of Europe, we
should speak of the Czech Republic as a country in the heart
of Europe – after all, the heart is not to be found
precisely in the center of the human body either.
People and nature
The Czech countryside offers a pleasant combination of
mountains, water, meadows and forests. The seasonal changes
of weather create a unique environment for various leisure
activities, relaxation, sports and agricultural activities,
without placing a burden on the environment. Vision of the
Czech Republic help keep the right direction to preservation
and development of natural beauties.
Health and health care
A modern European country requires a quality health service.
The service in the Czech Republic is provided by means of
traditional and specialized medical institutions, where
various medical procedures are performed, from immunization
to demanding operations and research. Vision of the Czech
Republic in this field is focused on prevention and
maintenance of the high standard of the public healthcare.
Security
The Czech Republic oversees the safety of its residents and
visitors. Prevention is a priority, but a significant focus
is put on training security units to enable them to quickly
and effectively intervene in cases of sudden danger. Vision
of the Czech Republic in field of security issues sets
direction of all arrangements following these targets.
Transport
The transportation network in the Czech Republic is very
dense. In the scope of the European Union, the Czech
Republic holds primacy in the density of its railway
network, which has 120 kilometers of rail for every 1,000
square kilometers of land. Besides trains, however, there
are many other types of transport for traveling in the Czech
Republic – personal automobiles, buses, trams, trolleys,
airplanes, bicycles or even boats.
Media
The Czech media sector includes one national television and
radio station and successful private television stations,
radio stations, newspaper and magazines, the distribution of
which is objective and balanced. The television studios
produce their own projects, including series, films and
documentaries of high quality.
