The Czech Republic (Czech: Česká republika) is landlocked country in Central Europe. The capital city is Prague (Czech: Praha) in Northern Bohemia. The Czech Republic borders Poland to the north, Austria to the south, Germany to the west and Slovakia to the east.
Geography
The Czech Republic consists of 3 regions:
| Region | Capital | Resources |
|---|---|---|
| Moravia | Brno | None |
| Northern Bohemia | Prague 
| Grain  , Wood
|
| Southern Bohemia | Plzen | Grain
|
It is an often-held view that the only reason for continued Czech independence is its lack of any high Resources.
Demographics
The first inhabitants of the Czech Republic were primarily Czechs, but in very small numbers. Very soon came Slavic immigrants from other countries in the south that were not in the game, such as Croats and Serbs. After military takeovers of Poland and Slovakia by other nations, many Poles and Slovaks came to the Czech Republic in exile. This strengthened Czech Republic as well as baby-boom at that time. At the time, the Czech Republic was the only independent Slavic nation in the whole eWorld, creating bonds between the countries that continue even after independence. Many Poles and Slovaks remember when the Czech Republic was there home when their country was under foreign occupation, this increased the ideals of Pan-Slavic unity between the Slavic communities in the game.
After Poland and Slovakia were liberated after V1, many of their people returned to their countries. Since then more Slavic countries, such as Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia have been added to the game. The Czech Republic has gradualy lost players, and according to election figures it is one of the least active countries in the New World.

Constructions
There is a Q5 hospital in Northern Bohemia, a Q4 hospital in Moravia and a Q1 hospital in Southern Bohemia. There is also a Q4 Defense system in Moravia. The Czech Government owns a Defence system company called Defence for eCZ, located in France. Its first Quality 4 System was built in Moravia, as it was then the sight of the Czech Republic's best hospital. There was debate as to which region to fortify next, Southern Bohemia which has a hospital, or the capital in Northern Bohemia, which is very underdeveloped. However, the recent purchace of a Q5 hospital in Northern Bohemia makes it more likly to be the next reciver of a defence system. Some also suggest selling the systems on the open market, which might gain 100-200 gold for the Czech Treasury.

Tsars of the Czech Republic
The first Tsar of the Czech Republic was Vaclav, he was also the last President of the Czech Republic. Change from President to Tsar was problematic because the change was made without a vote being taken in congress. After impeachment of Ivan Hat in October, next president Shanethe13 did not claim the title.
Foreign Relations
The Czech Republic is well known for being a neutral state, a position that most of its people agree with. As it was on the boundary between PEACE GC forces in the south and ATLANTIS nations in the north, the Presidents of the Czech Republic knew that if they joined either alliance the other could quite easily attack. However, the majority of the population was leaning towards ATLANTIS, and President radim suggested that the Czech Republic might consider membership. However, since the collapse of ATLANTIS and the Poland-Germany War the people of the Czech Republic have reaffirmed their neutral policies. These were described by the eRepublik admin as:
| “ the neutral foreign policy, which has helped this country maintain its independence while being surrounded by larger countries that have been fighting for power. ” | |
| (Admin [1])
|
Military
Czech army is relatively small and not very experienced. As a neutral nation, the Czech Army does not see a lot of fighting, and it is mainly intended for self defence and participating in training wars. The weapons industry in the Czech Republic is developing.
Alliances
The Czech Republic has never been a member of any of the large alliances in the New World. The Czech Republic was a founder member of European Social Alliance before it collapsed. When a majority of other Slavic countries were occupied or didn't exist in the game, the ideas of pan-Slavism proposed the Panslavix alliance, comprising of many of the major Slavic countries, including Croatia, the Czech Republic, Poland, Russia and Slovakia. However, the alliance was never formerly created, and many of the countries joined either ATLANTIS or PEACE at the start of World War I.
Mutual Protection Pacts
The Czech Republic cannot afford many MPPs with other countries, however it is recognised that they are necessary for defensive purposes. Therefore, the Czech Republic government decided to seak MPPs with two of the strongest nations of the new World: the United States and Hungary. As they were both from ATLANTIS and PEACE respectivly, they provided protection for the Republic without joining eather side. However, with the collapse of ATLANTIS and the outbreak of World War III, the situation has become more complicated, as the two allies were fighting against each other. Most of the Czech population favored siding with the USA in the war, and the country could not sustain more than one MPP a month. Therefore it retained the MPP with the USA. The Czech Republic also has formal Non-Aggression Pacts (NAPs) with Slovakia and Poland.
Media
There are many newspapers within the Czech Republic. A few are active. The central government newspaper is the Tiskova Kancelar CR (Czech Press Office), it was set up by Minister for Communication Martin23230 under Franz Kafka. Since then every president has used it to keep the people informed of Government activities and advice.
The closest the Czech Government had to a national newspaper before that was the newspaper of the Ceska Narodni Banka (Czech National Bank), CNB News.

History
First President
The first president of Czech Republic was Vinzent Zeplin who was part of Nordreich Czechia. He made a company which sold very cheap (and a lot) food to the people of Czech.
Slovakia-Czech Republic War
Slovakia started the Slovakia-Czech Republic War by attacking the Czech Republic on April 10th '08. The Czech Republic won this war with the help of Pakistan. The war ended by annexation of Slovakian regions on April 13th 2008.
Second President
After the annexation of Slovakia, a Slovakian, named Reine, was elected as president in Czech Republic. Reine did many reforms and boomed the Czech economy by for instance setting up a lot of companies that still exist today.
Hungary-Czech Republic War
On June 6th 2008, Hungary started the Hungary-Czech Republic War. The result of the war was the annexation of Slovakia by Hungary. The war ended June 23rd 2008.
Third President
Yugi was elected as president during the war. He refused to create peace and stole money from Czech for his own personal profit. He is today banned from Czech Republic for his crimes against the country and its people.
Fourth President
The president in July was Vaclav, who later appointed Ivan Hat as the first vice president of Czech Republic. Vaclav was the leader of Czech defense forces during the Hungary-Czech Republic War. He issued the first Czech constitution and reopened relations with many countries.
Fifth President
The fifth president (August) was Baci. During his term amid a steady population increase, Czech citizens suffered due to a lack of local food on the market. The situation helped to draw members to the populist Slavic Party which formed the opposition and had a role in local affairs for the next 3-4 months.
Sixth President
The sixth president was Ivan Hat. He was in function for two terms. His second election (1st Oct) ended in a tie against up and coming politician shanethe13, mayor of Plzen, but because of Ivan Hat's seniority in eRepublik he won the election. shanethe13 was nominated for presidency one day before the elections by opposition leader Parrot who resigned from his candidacy shortly before. shanethe13 had the voter support of Justin Tyme and his group, who were at that time preparing for the independence-fight in Germany.
Seventh President
The seventh president was shanethe13. The opposition didn't put forward any candidate for the presidential elections. Due to the emigration of Tyme's group, shanethe13 and his Civil Reform Party (former Slavic Party) lost the majority in congress on the 25th November. shanethe13 posted soon after these elections the "German Liberation Act" trying with the help of Parrot and Tyme to drag the Czech Republic into a war with Germany and Slovakia, or at least empty the Czech treasury if the war shouldn't succeed. Because of these and other actions shanethe13 was very unpopular at the end of his term. He moved to Germany and then to South Korea.
Eighth President
The Eighth president was again Vaclav. He stabilized situation, tried make revival of the Czech Republic and reopened relations with other countries.
Ninth President
The Ninth president was Red Duck. He won very tight presidential elections and announced reforms. Red Duck´s reforms boomed our economy. Under his leadership Czech Republic joined ESA.
Tenth President
The Tenth president was radim. He stood against former president Ivan Hat. It was a hard fight. radim promised continuing of Red Duck´s reforms and free market. Ivan Hat promised creating socialism and stronger government regulations. radim got 34 votes, Ivan Hat got 23 votes.
Hungarian Congress Take-Over
A group of Hungarians attempted to take-over Czech congress on the 25th of March. This wasn't an official act supported by Hungarian government, but an action of few (about 15) renegades. Czech Republic has invited many friends and people from another countries, and with their help, this take-over was defeated. Hungarians received more than 50 % of total votes, but only 11 seats which was not enough to fully control Czech congress. Take-Over attempt was unsuccessful and Hungarians eventually left Czech congress leaving Czechs in control of the congress.
Second Term
radim won a very close presidential race with his Minister of Defense Jan Khysl. radim was supported by Nezavislost, the CRU, and Czech Liberal Democrats, while Jan Khysl was supported by the United Slavs party. radim received 23 votes, while Jan Khysl received only 21.
Jan Khysl then decided to publish an article which discussed the foreign policy of the Czech Republic, and how the two candidates differed so greatly. It seemed there was sufficient support for the Czech Republic to abolish its policy of neutrality, and choose some allies.
British Congress Take-Over
The congress elections were again subject to a take-over attempt. The response from the government was disjointed and uncoordinated. President Radim had invited British citizens to come to Czech Republic to help prevent another Take Over attempt. He did this without consulting anyone in his cabinet - not even his Foreign Minister Jura52. Secretly the British Prime Minister briefed this supposedly 'anti-TO' team to Take Over the Congress in order to steal Czech national funds. With their Presidential leadership absent a group of Congressmen including DaLe, Jura52, John Locked, Jan Khysl, and Franz Kafka organised strong resistance to the TO group in congress. They succeeded in defeating a Presidential impeachment. They were unable to prevent the loss of Spanish and Romanian currency reserves though.
Following private lobbying by DaLe and Jura52 and an international media campaign by Franz Kafka, the British TO congressmen eventually left Congress, their government shamed by their actions. Efforts were made to recover the lost funds and to receive a full British apology for the incident, which was mainly sucessful.
Eleventh President
President radim ran for a third term - supported by Czech Right Union and Czech Liberal Democrats. Congressman and Minister of Justice Franz Kafka opposed him supported by United Slavs and Nezavislost. Kafka won. During his presidency he achieved a MPP with Hungary and the USA. An article written by Franz Kafka on the international relations of the Czech Republic can be read here.
Second Term
Franz Kafka won his second term in office in June 2009; however he has announced he would step down in July. His second term as also very successful.
Twelfth President
Former president radim ran again for a third term, he was opposed by DaLe, another prominent Czech politician and Vaclav, who was also attempting to return to the presidency. Radim won the election by 5 votes.
Polish Congress Take-Over
Sadly, just before the introduction of citizenship, two of the Czech parties (Cesti liberalove and the United Slavs) were taken over by an unofficial Polish group, Masoneria. They renamed the parties after two real life Czech Parties, ODS and ČSSD. Using multi-accounts they also secured a victory in the congress elections. They impeached radim, meaning DaLe became president. Later most of the accounts were banned and the members of Masoneria returned to Poland.
Thirteenth President
DaLe became president after radim was impeached. He was president for one week, before having to stand in the Presidential elections in August. His opponent was Nicneumel, who won the election by 3 votes.
Fourteenth President
The fourteenth president of the Czech Republic was Nicneumel. He finalised agreements with Habraka Abrivianius to buy a Q5 hospital in Northern Bohemia. He also signed a new NAP with Poland.
