celeb123: lol, I don't think you failed You know a bit at least

margotchanning: I didn't think someone knows our present President, people usually know former leaders

hangman: You were definately some help, as all of you! Stunning skyline...that's sounds great!

No, he was from Serbia and Bosnia Franz Ferdinand's uncle was at that time our emperor, I think no one from Bohemia wanted to kill him...well, I know it's debatable...

Hi Sammya, I forgot to mention something about an Astronomical Clock in Prague. I think it was built in 1402 or something. Also I forgot to mention the Velvet Revolution!!

Hi Des, no, I'm going to have my exams in two months, but I have to prepare for it already, because at the same time I'm doing my high-school-leaving exams which are important to pass and entrance exams for four University faculties, so I have to prepare myself now
Good luck to you! To be a journalit is a great job!

Hi Sammya, I forgot to mention something about an Astronomical Clock in Prague. I think it was built in 1402 or something. Also I forgot to mention the Velvet Revolution!!

Hi Donal, hey, I didn't know myself when it was built! Wow. Actually it was in 1410, but I had to find it out on Wikipedia! I'm ashamed. Oh, yes, Velvet revolution. It took place at the same year I was born (I know it's not much interesting, but never mind )


Lizanne, Jason, thank you for your answers!
