}} __TOC__
'''Czechia''', officially ''Czech Republic''' (Czech: ''Česká republika'' or ''Česko'') is a country in [[Europe]], bordering on [[Austria]], [[Germany]], [[Poland]] and [[Slovakia]]. It is a member state of the [[European Union]] as well as the [[Schengen Agreement]].
In most cases hitchhiking there is quite easy. Czech Republic is a transit country with dense traffic on its main roads. Along with the local drivers you can find there many drivers (especially truck drivers) from nearby countries. Older drivers usually speak only Czech, sometimes some Russian and more seldom German. Younger drivers usually have at least a basic level of English.
