The Czech Republic (Czech: Česká republika), a member state of the European Union (since May 1 2004), is a landlocked country in Central Europe. The country has borders with Poland to the north, Germany to the northwest and west, Austria to the south, and Slovakia to the east. The historic city of Prague (Czech: Praha), a major tourist attraction, is its capital and largest city. Other major cities include Brno, Ostrava, Zlín, Plzeň, Pardubice, Hradec Králové, České Budějovice, Liberec, Olomouc, and Ústí nad Labem.
The country is composed of two entire historic regions, Bohemia and Moravia, parts of Silesia and small sections of historic Lower Austria.
Name
The official name is
Czech Republic.
The Czech Ministry of Foreign Affairs in
1993 suggested that the name
Czechia be official alternative in all situations other than formal official documents and the full names of government institutions, but this has not caught on in English usage. Its
Czech equivalent
Česko is disputed by many
Czech people but often used by others.
See Names of the Czech Republic and Czech lands.
