As per archaeological excavations and scientific evidence found in the region, the history of the Czech Republic dates to the Paleolithic Era. This was the time when the region was scarcely populated by humans and barely saw development in terms of infrastructure.

It was in the classical era during the 3rd century BCE when the development in terms of trade and culture occurred. During this period, the Gallic tribe of Boii established a city at the site of modern-day Prague. Gradually, the settlement extended and spread across the various northern parts of the country.

Later, several Germanic tribes and Slavs resided in the region and remained there for centuries. During the 7th century CE, the first Slavic state was founded by a Frankish merchant. In subsequent years, numerous small dynasties took over the control. However, they faded into oblivion in a few decades.

In the late 9th century, the Czech Duchy rose to prominence and laid the foundation of the kingdom of Bohemia. The empire grew strong and became quite powerful in later years. The region was converted into a significant center of trade, culture, history, and education during this period.

After the end of World War I, the state of Czechoslovakia was formed. However, in the wake of the Velvet Revolution, the dissolution of Czechoslovakia happened. Eventually, the region was peacefully divided into two countries namely Czech and Slovakia.
