'''Prague''' (Czech: ''Praha'') is the capital city of the [[Czech Republic]]; it was the capital of [[Czechoslovakia]] between 1918 and 1993, and is the traditional capital of [[Bohemia]]. It lies on the River Vltava and has a population of 1.18 million. The rich gothic and baroque architectural heritage of Prague has led it to be considered one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, and since the fall of [[Communism]] it has become a major tourist destination.
The Prague Spring was the period of liberalisation undertaken by the Communist government of [[Alexander Dubcek]] between April and August 1968 which was crushed by the intervention of troops from the [[Soviet Union]].
