- 🎥 What Czech are we celebrating today? Excellent Question!! My first year in Prague, I never knew what holiday we were celebrating. In fact, it always felt like we were celebrating Independence Day...and we were! Just independence from different oppressors. Well, this week, we're celebrating Statehood Day, so here's a brief explainer.

ABOUT ME
👋🏽 Hi, I am Jen! American living in Prague and loving every minute of it. I’ve been living the dream in the capital city of Czech Republic with my American husband and Ukranian dog for 11 enchanting years.
I make videos and tell stories about immigrant life in Prague, cross-cultural mishaps, and give tips on how to live in, work in, and visit Prague.
Hi, Jen. Nov 17 is also for commemoration of Jan Opletal (shot Oct 28, died later) and 9 student-protesters that were killed (sentenced) by Nazis in autumn 1939. The events led to closure of all universities till the end of the war.
...and the 1989 demonstration was originally organized as an official reminder of that anniversary (which was also known as International Student's Day). Which likely contributed to people getting angry about how it turned out later that evening. Celebrating the memory of killed students by beating (not only) students was really a bad idea even for socialist police.
Zda se me, ze jste videl zabery TV z 18.11. ,19. 11. ,atd. ktere jsou dnes prezentovany jako 17.11. To uz se zase nevy, ze to bylo vsechno zinscenovane samotnym vedenim KSC? Neslisel jste nikdy o tzv. mrtvem studentu Martinu Smidovy?, ktery byl ve skutecnosti agent STB. Kdyby chteli tak by TV nic neodvysilala. Nic vas nenapada?

@@ingridlaskova8526 Takhle nějak bych si výklad dějin představoval. Nejsou podstatné možné drobné chyby ve výkladu, nejsou podstatné letopočty. Spousta informací v malém obrázku beze slov, dostatečný odstup, nemalování na růžovo nebo černo...
Thanks for watching! Love my pesky Slovak viewers!
@@DreamPrague I've got question. You don't write Czech?😀That's not hate.
I have to say here about the Wenceslas and his family - Drahomíra's paganism is very disputed, as a wife of a christian duke (which Vratislav I was) she had to be at least officially christian and considering that some of the earliest legends (the 1st Old Slavonic legend for example, if I'm not mistaken) are actually quite amicable about her, it's quite probable that the problem between Drahomíra and Ludmila was more political than religious. It's possible that there might have been religious element of it but mostly about from where the clergy came from (there are some theories, that Ludmila had very good relationship with Bavaria and so prefered clergy coming from there and I even heard theories that Drahomíra might prefered Old Slavonic liturgy and because of that the 1st Old Slavonic legend is favorable towards her comparable to latin legends written +- in the same time). Boleslav was definitely a christian (as a duke he build quite a lot of churches), whatever was the nature of the enemity between him and Wenceslas, it almost certainly had very little to do with Boleslav's paganismus or something like that. Wenceslas's surrender to Henry the Fowler, the king of the East Francia also had nothing to do with the christianity in the Bohemia or something like that, he just knew he couldn't win at the time and surrendering to a stronger opponent and then paying peace tribute was a normal thing during that time, so I wouldn't say Wenceslas "threw his lot in with the Germans". It's possible, that it wasn't decision warious chieftains or Boleslav liked, of course, might have been the main reason for the enemity between brothers, but it had nothing to do with a christianity (Henry the Fowler did give a relic of st Vitus to Wenceslas as a sign of the peace between them (and possible also as a sigh of respect) but that's all). Both Drahomíra and Boleslav (though he mainly in later legends) were called pagans by some of the legendists, but christian legendists like to call all the villians in their stories pagans, so yeah. Also Boleslav's later "redemption story" may be motivated less by his guilt over the fratricide (although that may have been a part of the reason) and more by the fact that having a saint in the ruling family was quite a prestigious thing that could go a long way against any claims about "fake christianisation" of them and their land used as an excuse for an attact.
Interesting, thanks
Luxusně zpracované. Díky!
It's getting better each time I watch U ... I think you spread knowledge about us and our culture more and better than any of the government's or tourist agencies marketing programs ... :) ....
Thank you Jaroslav. I’m glad to spread the word about your great country!
@@DreamPrague and we're glad you're doing it and apparently enjoying it ... :) ...
As a native Czech❤, I am happy to say I have never heard such a to the point summary. Thank you!!!
Glad you thought so!
Ahoj, Jen. Love your work. Have been following for 3 or 4 years. I'm now 4 weeks into a 6 week trip in Czechia. Loving it! Many of your tips have helped immensely. And yes... I did attend mass on St. Wenceslas Day. And yes... I did eat liver dumpling soup, roast duck, cabbage, and dumplings with four generations of a Moravian family. ❤
As a pesky Hungarian I have to admit that I love your videos.
That’s great! Thanks for watching!
Maďaři nejsou protivní.🙂
But Jen kind of forgot for you as a huge minority part of Czechoslovakia…unless she sees the Slovaks as Hungarians 😂
Parádně udělané video!
Damn pesky Slovaks!

Skvělé video. 👍 Těším se, až uděláš jedno také o Járovi Cimrmanovi 😂
Ahoj Jen, krásně zpracované video, jako vždy. A vlastně čím dál lepší. Děkuju.
5:09 - 😆😂🤣 Toto nemá chybu 👌👍
The best way to celebrate the victory day is to go to Pilsen for the "Liberty Festival", which usually takes place around May 6th. There, you can see parades of historical vehicles, battle reenactments, aircraft flyowers, public lectures on military history, lots of memorial ceremonies and tons of military history enthusiasts in historical uniforms reenacting the life of a military camp. As an American-born, you will like it and there is a lot to do and see for kids as well.
Perfect funny video as always. Thanks. p.s. You would make a great ambassador.
Jen, thank you for this (and other) video. It helps me a lot in describing Czech history to my American friends. Greetings from Rhode Island!
Dnes to Jen moc sluší 👍🏽
P.S. Slovo “pesky” ma vždy fascinovalo 😂 Díky
Jennifer, ty seš takové zlatíčko. Děkujeme Ti. 😘😃

Hi Jen, thank you. This is very beautiful video about this holiday. 🤗
You are so welcome!
Skvěle zpracované video jako vždy, jen vyšlo o den dříve :D Sranda neberte to osobně :)
Amazing, lovely, perfect video... thx for this, really made my day better.
Jan that’s lovely to hear, I’m glad you tuned in!
Nice video. Maybe you could mention that St. Wenceslas is the one from the famous Christmas carol "Good King Wenceslas" as fun fact for American subscribers.🙂
I'll bet they can figure this out for themselves.
He was not the king but the duke.
@@evamacova4085 Of course, during his life he was duke, but actualy he was proclaimed king post mortem. And yes, that Christmas carol is really about St. Wenceslas of Bohemia.
Excellent video, guys! And fun to meet you in the pub last night. Marion and Steve
We are here in Cesky Krumlov and seeing all the preparations for Wenceslas Day...! But sadly we are leaving tomorrow morning for Brno. (We missed seeing you in Prague. Why weren't you at the Astronomical Clock when we were??? I really like the Lesser Town area. Meet you at the Shakespeare Bookstore next time?) Actually, we're not so sad about missing it the celebrations, being that we are experiencing sight-seers fatigue. Also Tourist fatigue. But that's CK for ya! Na Zdravi!
Another entertaining and informative video; very enjoyable.
I hope the foregneirs living here now get to watch it in between their Netflix series seasons...
9:22 “A millenniuM”. 😂 (so this is what it’s like to correct a person’s grammar). 👨🏫 😊
Great video Jen.
Jeesem! Your eyes!
Would you ever do a video(or some, because I think there's SO much to talk about) about the different parts of CR? Or maybe even all the different parts of Moravia? I'm so fascinated by all of that, especially Moravia. And to be honest I just love the culture of Slovácko like nothing else. So maybe - and maybe even more important to me personally - a video about Slovácko/cultural, historical, mentality- and tradition-wise etc differences and connections between Slovácko and Moravia and Slovakia? And the same with only Moravia and CR in a whole... I know I'm asking a huge lot but it would be so incredibly interesting and it's so hard to find out about all of that when you have neither personal connections to CR nor SK and can only watch videos and talk to people in the comment section or on some language learning websites etc... Especially the cultural, most of all traditions, music and dances are of huge interest to me. In both countries. But especially CR since I want to understand that country with all it's parts and things that make it unique, but I'm getting more and more confused the more I talk to Czechs, Moravians and Slovaks. And noone talks about Moravia on CZcams the way you do about Bohemia! It's so sad... I have so incredibly many questions but noone to ask. I'm sorry if this comment is chaotic, I hope I was able to convey what I mean...I would be so grateful for any more specific videos about Moravia :) I have the impression Bohemians and Moravians are very different and Moravians don't want to be called "Czechs"(some of the reasons of course are obvious to me, others not). Also that Slovaks are very... strongly opinionated regarding culture and I've heard a few say that Moravian culture is actually Slovak and all of Czechias culture wouldn't exist without them, that the whole country of Czechia has nothing of their own, that makes them unique, except "beer and porn". Which is of course completely absurd(I will use no other word for that kind of behaviour), which is why I'm so interested in the connections and differences and all the different cultures in CR. And to SK. And please don't get me wrong, I love Slovak culture, but there indeed were quite a few Slovaks that said things like that to me. I don't want to talk badly about anyone, I just want to understand an learn about these beautiful cultures!
Hi, I'm native Moravian. If we can find a way how to communicate directly, I can try to answer your questions :)
Today I must pay a compliment to your hair and hair cut.
Respekt !!!!! Česky pro tebe - dík🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘
Great video as always, thank you. I don’t think there’s a St Wenceslas medal though. A medal with the Wenceslas eagle used to be awarded during the German “protectorate”, but that was obviously abandoned. Also, the president’s medal ceremony is 28. October (or 1. January), not September. The 28.9. is a fairly new holiday, it was only established in 2000 and many people take it just as a day off.
Hi Jen, and thank you for your interesting video ! Yes, you are right Czechoslovakia was really a very beautiful name for this country. Unfortunately, the Czechs and Slovaks separated in 1993. I have to say that this break up was very difficult for people of Czech origin who live in the United States. You know their ancestors fought very hard to create an independent Czechoslovakia. They organized the collections and sent the money from America to help create Czechoslovakia. My relatives told me all about it when I arrived in Texas in 1993. Simply, without the enormous support of the United States, Czechoslovakia would not have arisen at all.
Goose with dumplings, cabbage and red wine is traditional meal for St. Martin's Day 11th November.
Not also for svaty vaclav?
@@DreamPrague Not really. Still too warm for it. Duck / goose really only comes into the picture in November.
@@DreamPrague It is duck, not goose. But we for example pick mushrooms called Václavky. Also as tradition there were mass at church, pilgrimage, all kinds of celebrations and markets. Markets are quite popular even today.
Thank you, Jen, for spreading the knowledge about us. We don't deserve you, but we appreciate you 🥺
PS : I am 5 beers and 3 shots in, so I will deny I have ever gone soft or pleasant. I am a manly man man after all 😤
You are so Czech!
Today? Tomorrow! :D
as a Czech I honestly wouldn't be able to tell you all this without googling
A nitpick: someone who liked _Pelíšky_ so much should know better than to show an image with _noky_ and call it _knedlíky_. :-) BtW, english voice and subtitles talk about goose while czech subtitles say "duck" which is IMHO more traditional meal here - unless it's st. Martin's (Nov 11), that is.
Sv. Václav's fame is so strong that his story became part of so many midnight masses by singing Good King Venceslaus in catolic churches.
Ooh-la-la! Look at Jen all gussied up. What’s the occasion?
I do love history. Next time you are celebrating Saint Wenceslaus Day, the greatest Czech baroque composer, Jan Dismas Zelenka, wrote an oratorio about Saint Wenceslaus for the coronation of the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles VI of Austria in 1723. The full title of the work is - "Under the Olive Tree of Peace and the Palm Tree of Virtue the Crown of Bohemia Splendidly Shines Before the Whole World: Melodrama to Saint Wenceslaus." It was a major event. Besides the orchestra, conducted by Zelenka, there was an additional cast of 142 as singers, actors and dancers. Enjoy. czcams.com/video/u0wVXI-Mdt4/video.html
"Which does not actually have anything to do with this nation becoming a state." Well, the fact that Bohemia finally had her own martyr meant a lot. It led to the creation of the Prague diocese and Czechia (or Bohemia) became a respected entity. It basically put us on the map of Europe.
Well, that situation with st. Wenzelaw and his brother is bit more complicated....as almost everything in czech history. So, good work :D
Nicely made video. Pleasant historical interpretation. Just a minor correction. Contemporary historians hold the opinion that it was not Boleslav who had his brother killed on purpose.
Probably, the birth of Boleslav's son Kristián was celebrated, where the Czech prince Václav also came to celebrate to his brother´s succes, a newly born nephew.
There was a lot of drinking, and some men from Boleslav's party scolded prince Václav for sending silver to the Saxons instead of defying himself. Václav handled it without conflict.
The next morning, but on the way to the chapel, he had a dispute with his brother Boleslav about it, they argued, and Boleslav drew his sword to show how he would turn the Saxons. Václav tore the sword from his hand and instructed his younger brother about a peaceful solution. But at the same time, Boleslav's men were passing by and saw that Václav was threatening their lord. That's why they attacked and murdered him. Boleslav definitely did not wish for his brother's death and it crushed him a lot. Therefore, almost immediately he began the process of his canonization and made him the patron saint of the Czech lands.
BTW, English Carrol named Good King Wenceslas is about our St.Václav. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_King_Wenceslas
Thanks for the informative history lesson! I was in Prague a couple of years ago on Nov. 17th. I stopped at the commemorative display on the sidewalk near the Národní Třída tram stop (4:15) where police mercilessly beat hundreds of peaceful demonstartors so badly that many had to be hospitalized. As you pointed out, this was the beginning of the Velvet Revolution that led to the dismantling of Soviet control over (then - ) Czechoslovakia. I spoke with an elderly gentleman there who had come to pay his respects. He was pushing his invalid wife in a wheelchair. He told me he was a historian who had lived through those decades of Soviet repression. He kicked with his right leg and exclaimed "Russians out! F***ing Russians out!"
Dear Jen,
T. G. M. 's grave is in the village named Lány. Approximately 35 km from Prague. Every czech knows that (I hope 😉). F. from Kladno.
Nobody said it would be somewhere else.
Nice summary. I didn't know or remember about the Germans and sv. Václav. I think he is also just remembered as a good ruler, trying to avoid war etc. Not just that he was murdered. :-D
I think in ruSSia, the end of WWII is celebrated on 9th May.
svátek je až zítra
It is a bit complicated with September 28. It is true that St Wenceslaus was killed on that day in 935, but there was also massacre of Slavniks on the same day in 995. Slavniks were the last "competitor nobles" of Premyslovci and since then was the whole Bohemia under their rule. Some historics (but not all) found that as founding of the Bohemian state.....maybe because we don't like to talk about bloody moments of our history. ;-)
I have wanted to ask a long time already - why do you use the name Wenceslas for svatý Václav but you use the correct name Václav for Václav Havel etc. ???? Just curious :)
V den vydání tohoto videa žádný
just to be historicaly correct , czech country had announced independency out of austria-hungaria empire before WWI fnished - end of it was on 11.11.1918 and as you see we celebrate 28.10.1918 as our celebrate day , true is that czechoslowakia was established somee time after that . and without czech army ( legions ) would not have stayed free longer then several months , because of hungary and polish armies .
😁
I'm not complaining, but why was video published today and not tomorrow? 😀
In Israel we celebrate being liberated from the greek syrians on Hannukah, being liberated from the Persians on Purim, being liberated from the egyptians on Passover, and being liberated from the british on Independence day. Call me crazy but I see some similarities there.
Wow, definite similarities. Thanks for the briefing, I don’t know enough about your holidays.
It is worth noting that the 8.5. victory day is celebrated in each country on a different day. I believe we have it the latest since Prague was the last place where Nazis defied their fate.
And while checking with different EU nations, when they celebrate the vicotry date exactly, make sure to omit countries like Germany and Netherlands - it is a common faux-pas to ask them about that.
All good points, thanks for sharing!
@@DreamPrague i am living near the demarcation line where blue and red met, we could be saved and prague at 5.5. but russia wanted more power, so they wanted to rescue prague themselves, forcing american-led armies to stop
I'm from the Netherlands, but to be honest, I've got no idea what you are talking about.
Yeah, I study in the Netherlands and they have their own liberation day on the 5th of May...
Praha was last if you count only capitals. Otherwise, the last shots were as late as May 12th, near Příbram (cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitva_u_Slivice).
V kostce úplně přesně na tom nejde nic vytknout.
Dnes slavíme svátek sv. Václava, patrona české země
6:53 I hope you dont think this picture is from 935 😀
Ahoj Jen, skvělé video jako vždy❤
1:12 Personaly I would just replace "Czechs" with "Bohemians". Yeah, in czech language we use same word for both, but there is a difference in other languages. Bohemians is a nation which live(d) on historical territory of Duchy of Bohemia or later Bohemian kingdom, wheras Czechs are people from Czechia (citizens of Czech Republic or you can say it is a nation, too). When you say Czechs, you include Bohemian and also Moravian and some people from Silesia, another part of Silesia is in Poland (I am not sure for 100 percent about this last sentence with Czechs vs Bohemians, but I definitely feel it as czech (and bohemian) like this)
Not exactly so. All lands of the Bohemian Crown had their common identity, independently on people's language and nationality. The Czech identity is based on the Czech nationality.
CR me muze naridit statni obcanstvy, ale ne narodnost a ta je Moravska.
@@pavelkryzek-pk9ss "Obcanstvy" s "y" na konci, "Moravska" s velkým M, to opravdu není česky, to máte pravdu. Ale moravsky taky ne. Pokud jde o národnost, tak většina obyvatel Moravy ji má například hanáckou, horáckou, valašskou, slováckou, lašskou, goralskou... Nebo jim ji chcete upírat a nařizovat jim vámi vymyšlenou moravskou?
I agree that when referring to Bohemia proper specifically, Bohemians should be used rather than Czechs. However, the terms Czechs and Bohemians were used as synonyms as well (unsurprisingly when there is the same word for them in Czech) until the early 20th century. The Czech language was known as the Bohemian language (the Czech studies are known as bohemistics/bohemistika to this day).
My big bad wife, who teaches English, was bold enough to criticize your sentence "... you, recently arrived foreigners, understand why you´re the only one who´ve showed up ... " saying that it was not grammatical - one vs. who-ve ... I told her native speakers of any language are owners of the language and fully free to use it the way they see fit ...
Is there no defenestration day?
There should be!
Je mi 70 let a poprvé mně někdo, (zatím) cizinec vysvětlil, jak je to s našimi státními svátky. 😁😁

Hi Jennifer,
Sir_Mac here, as always!
Let me ask one thing:
When the rest of the holidays is going to be explained?
[Good Friday+Easter Monday (volatile in the calendar)]
[the Labor Day (1st May)]
[the Day of Burning Jan Hus (5th July)]
[the Day of Slavonic missionaries (6th July)]
[Christmas Eve+Christmas Day+St. Stephen's Day (24th to 26th Dec]?
As I get older I'm growing to be so much more appriciative of November 17th each year. I'm proud to say my grandparents were never part of the communist party even though it made their lives difficult.
The more history you know the less eager you are to start waving a flag. The only flag I respect is the white one :o
Wise, grasshopper.

@@incognitusmaximus2118 oooh I’ll check it out thanks!

French you might be?😂
Everything was great, but Boleslav? Really praise for learning all that and more.
Boleslav was raised by Ludmila as well. He was just as Christian, having great achievements in spreading the Christianity. History finds his motive more in the fact he was against paying the tribute to the emperor. He is generally regarded as one of the most capable Czech rulers, while his brother was really religious, but average ruler. That must have eaten him. And recently, historians speculate he might have been not simply the murderer we see him as. But that the brothers fought and Boleslav's people overreacted and attacked and killed Vaclav. Without his order.
In fact, the Czechoslovak nationality was created as there were more Germans than Slovaks back then so it would have been a bit awkard...
Well, St. Wenceslas day has also a darker follow-up. On the 29.8.1938 Czechoslovakia was sold off by its allies Britain and France to Hitler's Germany in what later became known as Munich Dictate.
Please cite here for me (and the others) the whole text of the treaty in which Czechoslovakia and United kingdom declared to be in military alliance that was valid in fall of 1938. As far as I know the was no such military alliance. Please feel free to proving that I am wrong, because I am quite sure that you are lying.
@@kolomaznik333 As there was a Little Entente (a war pact) between Czechoslovakia, Romania and Yugoslavia, there was Big Entente between Czechoslovakia, France and Britain. I cannot cite, because I cannot find the treaty text in publicly available data.
@@robinsebelova7103 You cannot cite it because it never existed... That is my point.
And (Big) Entende was alliance between UK, France and Russia.
Little Entende was fragile cooperation of countries you named that was focused against Hungary and royal restorations in former Austria-Hungary.
1:25 Na Československé vlajce byl jenom vlajka Čech a Moravy, osttní národ přišli vniveč. 😀
To si pletete. Prave Slovaci prispeli s tim modrym cipem. Do roku 1920 byla vlajka jako Polska, tedy odvozena z byvaleho Ceskeho kralovstvy, takze jestli na ni nekdo nemel zastoupeni, tak je to Morava, Slezko a Podkarpatska Rus. 🧐. Jinak uz T. G.

@@pavelkryzek-pk9ss Modrá se dá sice vyložit jako Slovenská, ale mnohem lépe jako pozadí moravské orlice
@@danieltencl3630 Nejde o vyklad nebo domenky, ale historicka fakta. Navic vlajka Moravy je rozdelena na delku, cervena a zluta a ta orlice s modrym pozadim je erb, ktery se pozdeji zacal pridavat na tu cervenozlutou vlajku. 😉
@@pavelkryzek-pk9sspokud jde o "historická fakta", tak ono to je trochu komplikovanější neboť historicky se nejprve používaly prapory (což je současný znak a oficiálně vexilology nejpodporovanější podoba moravské zemské vlajky), které až později nahradily vlajky s pruhy. V 17.stol byla používána bílo-modrá bikolóra (zpráva jistého Jiřího Závěty ze Závětic při příjezdu Matyáše Habsburského do Prahy), dále se oběvují červeno-modré vlajky. Během 18.stol. se však začala prosazovat trikolóra. V roce 1848 se moravský sněm nechal inspirovat běžně užívanou a Šemberou podporovanou trikolórou, ovšem vynechali modrou barvu. Takže, když byly barvy přijaty, okamžitě se proti ohradily noviny Slovanská lípa a většina moravanů nadále používala trikolóru (jen někdo se zlatou a někdo bílou barvou). "Moravská ústava" nebyla nikdy oficiálně potvrzena a nenabyla platnosti, místo toho byla v roce 1849 zrušena. Od té doby se současně používala bikolóra i trikolóra a ještě v roce 1896 moravské místodržitelství českému míst. k zemské výstavě odpovědělo, že otázka moravských barev není vyřešená. V dalších letech spolu neustále bikolóra a trikolóra vedly spory, přičemž dnes podporovanou bikolóru paradoxně nejvíce prosazovali moravští němci. Tady dochází k dalšímu paradoxu, kdy je v roce 1915 císařem oficiálně uznána trikolóra bílo-červeno-modrá za moravské zemské barvy, což způsobilo že za války moravané začali používat spíše bikoloru, tím pádem po válce již málokdo používal trikolóru. Ovšem vzhledem k tomu, že žluto-červená bikolóra jsou i Pražské barvy a dalších míst začal se přidávat na vlajku znak, což se ovšem nelíbí vexilologům neboť to porušuje nějaká pravidla tvorby vlajek, ovšem díky mnohým moravským spolkům hlavně z 90.let právě tato podoba vlajky je dnes nejznámější a nejoblíbenější.
Takže "historická fakta" se dají vykládat různě. Pravda ovšem je, že modrá barva měla zastupovala Slovensko a bikolóra České země, ovšem po rozpadu se definice změnila a dnes zastupují barvy Čechy a Moravu.
No a pravda je, že modrý klín a modrá barva žádné konkrétní území nezastupuje a nezastupovala. Ani ostatní barvy. To je jen lidová vexikologie. To se tu řešilo mockrát.
Jan, ty to znáš lépe než naši někteří Slováci.
I Češi (jsem Češka, jen pro info 😉a občas mě fascinuje, jak málo toho dnes lidé vědí o historii)
@@goodstorylover Jen ať naši slováci, kdeří podepsali Green deal, nam budou radit.
Actually, nobody knows how Vaclav died. Fact is, his brother Boleslav ruled 37 years, more then anybody else in the old dynasty, and even managed to extend the land. In the middle of the Europe, thousand years ago. He simply could not be a noob. So its even possible Boleslav made on purpose to look him as he killed his brother, to be more feared and to easier made his brother a saint for some marketing reasons, maybe :)
The Czech Socialist Republic (Czechia) was created on 1 January 1969. The Slovak Socialist Republic (Slovakia) was created on 1 January 1969 too. So, since 1969, Czechoslovakia was a federation of two states (Czechia and Slovakia).
On 6 March 1990 the Czech Socialist Republic was renamed the Czech Republic (Czechia). On 31 December 1992 the federation (Czechoslovakia) ended.
In 1960 the Czechoslovak Republic (Czechoslovakia) was renamed the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic (Czechoslovakia).
Since 1969, Czechoslovakia was a federation of two states (Czechia and Slovakia).
On 29 March 1990 the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic was renamed: the Czechoslovak Federal Republic (Czechoslovakia) in the "Czech" version and the Czecho-Slovak Federal Republic (Czecho-Slovakia) in the "Slovak" version.
On 20 April 1990 the CSFR was again renamed: the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic (Czechoslovakia in the "Czech" version and Czecho-Slovakia in the "Slovak" version).
Czechia existed long before it had its own republic. As well as Slovakia.
@@freeczechia7694 The Trianon Treaty uses hyphen in Czecho-Slovak State in all its language variants. Generally, common standards of Czech grammar and spelling would require a hyphen ("Pokud je první složka složeného přídavného jména zakončena na ‑sko, ‑cko, ‑ně nebo ‑ově, používáme pro oddělení obou složek spojovník (ten zde v podstatě plní funkci spojky), např. zemědělsko-potravinářský (týkající se zemědělství a potravinářství), technicko-ekonomický (týkající se techniky a ekonomiky), literárně‑hudební (týkající se literatury a hudby), obsahově‑významový (týkající se obsahu a významu) apod. K tomuto typu řadíme i složená přídavná jména, kde obě složky vyjadřují vztah vzájemnosti, např. česko-francouzský (vyjadřující vztah Česka a Francie), frýdecko‑místecký (od Frýdek‑Místek), řecko‑římský (například konflikt mezi Řeckem a Římem).")
Writing without a hyphen is only a historical exception to the general rules, applied also to Rakousko-Uhersko and rakousko-uherský.
LOL Slovak oppression. :) Am I pesky? :D :D :)
yes 😀
The mountains are indeed oppressive to Czechs.
@@CzechShooter Teba som sa nepýtal. :D :)
@@laserad It can happen to any tourist but yeah, czech casualties are common. Nature is beautiful but also dangerous.
@@igorbukovy4313 But soo beautiful! Been to HIgh Tatras this summer, enjoyed myself and my family very much, have only the best experience with people, accommodation etc....my family used a guide to climb the Lomnický štít peak, satisfaction all around!
Zajimave video. Jen nevim, proc uzivate sled Rakusane, nacisti, Soveti a Slovaci. Ti nacisti byli Nemci.
Haha, from these four holidays only, it seems like nothing happened for a thousand years :D Boleslav killed Václav and then the first world war ended :D
Also, am I the only one who sometimes gets all those Václavs in our history confused?
Zase byla na bělení zubů. Úžasné. Američané si na vybělené zuby potrpí.
Prahu osvobodila Ruda armada a to 9.5.1945 a ne 8.5.
"Czechoslovakia was the only country in Europe where WWII started one year earlier and ended four days later."
But right, that's also why when the public holiday was moved from 9th to 8th (let's be honest, the primary reason was not to be one of the few who share it with Russians), it was also renamed from the liberation day to the day of victory over nazism.
Jenže už 8.5. byla německá kapitulace.
Q@@xsc1000 A k cemu chcete podepsany papir, kdyz se fanaticti nacisti nevzdali boje proti Prazanum kteri povstali 5.5. Tomu udelala pritrz az Ruda armada 9.5.takze to slavime o den driv. To aby bylo do kroku s Evropou ne? 🙄
@@pavelkryzek-pk9ss A mohli jsme to slavit už 6.5., kdyby Rus Američanům nelhal, že už Prahu osvobozuje a zabránil jim tak v postupu dál...
@@xsc1000 😄😂🤣😅 To jste me fakt pobavil. Jak jste na to prisel? To se dnes uci v dejepisu takove bludy? To rozdeleni o osvobozeni bylo totiz dávno(zacatkem unora 45)smluvene na konferenci na Yalte. Britove by jinak musely uznat jak nas zradily v Mnichove38, ale kdyz to nechaji na SSSR, tak je ticho po pesine.
Jen, Vy máte načteno. Obdiv. 40 let vlády jedné strany mě formovaly. Bojím se o západ a jeho demokratické hodnoty. Proč? Obyvatelé tohoto prostoru, jsou více demokratičtí, než co reflektuji politické osoby z euroamerické společnosti. Jo. Promiňte. Ty svátky. Hezky zpracováno. Howk. :)
As far as i know Russian do not have victory day 8th May, but 9. Also idk why they have it as they have nazis in parlament.
Dnes žádný svátek neslavíme...
Jmeniny má dnes Jonáš a svátek Vincenc z Pauly. Státní svátky to zrovna nejsou.
jakto, že ne, flastenče?
@@pioneersaigon Protože to psal včera, když ještě státní svátek nebyl.

Nice job !!! You'd need a good Czech-language teacher though, your pronounciation is ... um, too American. 🙂

Well, slovaks are not that much of a brothers. Imagine more like distant cousin, who shows up twice a year totally drunk, eats up the fridge, then passes out on couch and piss himself.
Praha byla osvobozena rudou armádou 9 května Prague was liberated by the Red Army on May 9
nene, už přijeli do osvobozené Prahy...
A tento den, 28. 9., také připomínáme brutální masovou vraždu 80 náhodně vybraných nevinných Čechů rusáky z NKVD.
Taky jsem si vsimnul jak vsechno hned odkyvnem a cim vic prekroucena historie tim lip nebo co. No aspoñ nekdo obektivni. 👍
Kdy co bylo osvobozeno není nijak podstatné, na příklad ještě 11. května se u Příbrami dál bojovalo ...
Ale 8.5. začala oficiálně platit "Kapitulace nacistického Německa" = a proto se slaví konec války !!!
@@sandmann365 Jak muzete srovnavat ojedinele pripady s hlavnim mestem? Prazane povstali 5.5.a zbranemi zrovna neoplyvali.Existuji filmove zaznamy z 5.5. - 9.5. kde se nacisti odmytali vzdat se civilistum a musel prijit jeden zeleznicar(aspoñ nejaka uniforma). Pri takovem fanatismu byla Ruda armada nezbytna a zustava historickym faktem, ze tomu tak bylo 9.5.1945. Muzeme se zlobyt za zradu nasich spojencu v 1968,ale to neznamena snizit vyznam osvoboditele od fasismu v 1945 tak, ze dnesni vyklad historie nas posunula o jeden den. 🤔
@@pavelkryzek-pk9ss konec války 9. května se slavil z jiného důvodu, než že ten den dojeli konečně ruské tanky do Prahy a obsadili nás. Slavil se konec války 9. května, protože 8. května podepsali náckové v Berlíně s ruskáky kapitulaci a na dálném východě v Moskvě už měli tou dobou 9. května ráno. Tak to Moskva a její satelity slavila a slaví 9. a my dříve s nimi a tanky v Praze v tom roli nehrají. Kdy se přestalo definitivně střílet taky ne. Jinak se můžeme zlobit, že z politických důvodů nepustili západní spojence do Prahy už 5. května, skončilo by to dřív. Nebo že si russáci smluvili s němci, že si společně naporcují Evropu a spoluzpůsobili rozpoutání války a sami brutálně napadli své sousedy. Osvoboditely se stali díky obrovské materiální a zbojní pomoci ze západu. A taky se můžeme zlobit, že rašisti vraždili ostatní národy i Čechy ve 30. letech, drželi je v lágrech na nucených pracech a desítky tisíc českých krajanů měli naplánované odvést v létě 1941 na Sibiř do gulagů.
Kdo chce, může osvoboditelům líbat holínky dál.
Kecej česky!!
To video je zaměření primárně na cizince, těm by to v češtině asi moc k užitku nebylo.
No jo ale poslouchaji to i Češi!
@@boristurek7Tak buďte rád, že si můžete procvičit vaši angličtinu.
@@boristurek7no a? Prezidenta USA taky poslouchaj Češi a nemusí mluvit česky
@@boristurek7 Tak s k tomu zapněte české titulky, pokud tu angličtinu nezvládáte. Ale to video je primárně určené cizincům, takže dává mnohem větší smysl aby bylo v řeči které rozumí něco kolem miliardy lidí, než aby bylo v řeči jejíž počet mluvčích je někde kolem 11-12 milionů a když budu hodně velkorysý, tak jí rozumí tak možná kolem 20 milionů.
Ono to tak černobílé nebylo.
Podáváte to ve zkratce.Z toho cizinec nepochopí nic.
super, odlož pivase a jdi do toho a natoč to líp!
Nestrašte děti s těmi 40 lety komunismu. Vždyť nyní máme za prezidenta nadšeného komunistu a školeného špiona Petra Pavla. Dnes zas miluje jinou ideologii. Prostě pružný člověk podle potřeby zaměstnavatele!!

Neplácejte.
sice některé věci z EU taky nemusím, ale dokážete si představit, co by bylo poté? Cla na všechno ze zahraničí, pasy, víza, většina zahraničních továren by zcela jistě nezůstala, právě z důvodů cel..........atd......že teď to není růžové období, ale nedovedu si to představit poté, co chcete vy.

Samozřejmě, pro zemi, jejíž naprostá většina zahraničního obchodu je se zeměmi EU, by určitě bylo mnohem výhodnější, pokud bychom efektivně museli stejně dodržovat všechny normy a regulace EU, ale neměli žádné právo do nich mluvit.
