A landlocked country, the Czech Republic lies in Central Europe, approximately southeast of Germany. The country consists of two main areas: Bohemia and Moravia. Bohemia, in the west, consists of rolling plains, hills and tableland, which is surrounded by low mountains. The region of Moravia lies to the east and is hilly country; it is also one of the most strategically located parts of Europe- an area that is an ancient land route between the North European Plain and the Danube.
The terrain of much of the Czech Republic is extremely beautiful, and still surprisingly unspoilt. However, in the past decade or two, thoughtless industrialisation has wreaked havoc on the country’s environment; growing pollution has rendered much of the water unfit for consumption, and air pollution is causing acid rain, which is in turn wrecking forests.
