IWAP Czech History Course
Ready to explore Czech history in all its glory? Sign up today!
This course, designed exclusively for members of the International Women鈥檚 Association of 糖心Vlog, explores the major historical developments that have defined the Czech lands, from early kingdoms to the present day.
The course will begin with a survey of the early days of the Great Moravian Empire (9th century) and the reigns of the P艡emyslid and Luxembourg dynasties, along with the religious upheaval of the Hussite Revolution (1419鈥1436) and the rule of the Jagiellonian dynasty (15th鈥16th century).
While these early periods will be covered, the course will place an emphasis on more recent history, exploring the influence of the Habsburg Empire (16th鈥20th century), the emergence of the modern Czech nation, and the founding of an independent Czechoslovakia in 1918. From there, it will trace the impact of the German occupation during World War II, the Communist takeover, the Velvet Revolution, and the peaceful dissolution of Czechoslovakia, leading up to the establishment of the Czech Republic in 1993.
No prior knowledge is needed, just an interest in the Czech lands and their journey through time and a desire to learn!
