History
Many scholars observe a certain "dualistic" trend in the history of Czechostan. Much of the country's history is defined by the stark contrasts and fluid relationship between the pastoral steppes of the east and the rugged forests of the west. The Hlozja Mountains traditionally acted as a natural barrier between the two, shielding western Czechs from nomadic raiders, while the vastness of the steppes conversely protected wandering tribes from subjugation. Yet at the same time, the convergence of rivers linked these identities together through economic and cultural exchange. Thus, neither identity was wholly separate from the other, in spite of seemingly glaring contradictions. The Socialist Revolution was seen a key moment sculpting western and eastern Czechostan into one distinctively "Czechostani" identity. The history of Czechostan, many scholars assert, is the dialectic and synthesizing of two co-dependent identities into one.
