The “History of the Czech Republic”: A Fascinating Ride Into the Annals of the Czech Republic — Keep Reading!<br/><br/>There is an ancient legend among the Czech people, one that credits its founding to two brothers — Čech and Lech. They were out hunting in the wilderness one day when they spotted a peculiar prey. Lech headed in one direction to find his animal, while Čech took a different path.<br/>The brother Lech would go on to found Poland, while Čech would, of course, end up settling in what would later become the Czech Republic.<br/>While this story is merely part of legend and lore, it serves as a testament to the Czech’s deep sense of tradition and pride for their home country. These same attributes and attitudes have helped carry the nation along for so many years through so much strife.<br/>Once known as Bohemia, where early history under multiple rulers caused eras of conflict and tumult, the Czech Republic today is a force to be reckoned with. It has survived numerous wars and major tensions and has seen itself and others around it fall to the rule of ruthless leaders. It is a country that has become a developed and advanced nation in the modern age and has grown into one of the most peaceful countries in Europe.<br/>In the “History of the Czech Republic: A Fascinating Guide to this Wonderful Country in Central Europe”, historian Andrew Green compellingly recounts the history of the Czech Republic — much to the delight of thousands of readers across the globe!
