Praha je dynamickou multikulturní metropolí, která láká lidi z různých koutů světa svojí historickou, kulturní a v neposlední řadě také ekonomickou atraktivitou.

The issue of the Edict of Toleration legalised evangelicals of Lutheran and reformed confessions in Bohemia and Moravia.

National pride is a group-based and sometimes collective emotion people feel towards their nation-state. It is often measured by the general national pride item in cross-national surveys, and Czechs belong to those nations that express low levels of general national pride in comparison with other nations.

Nations are viewed as metaphorical families having common ancestors. Czechs, for example, share the legend about a forefather Čech who brought his people into Czechia. Analysing the Czech ISSP 2013 data we examine how the importance of having Czech descent depends on Christian denomination, openness towards immigration, perceived commonality with ‘significant Others’, foreign-born parents, and socio-demographics.

The results of research on domestic labour consistently show that women are responsible for more housework tasks than men. At the same time, there is growing public awareness of gender role equality.
