Workbook
For Czech and Slovak Families
After the Velvet Revolution — Identity and Partnership in a Changed World
You have been the one people count on so long that counting stopped.
For Czech and Slovak families — in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and the diaspora — who want to understand and document their family identity: the cultural heritage, the history through communism and after, and what they are building together.
The Name It First Experience
For Czech and Slovak Families is for the Czech or Slovak family — together or on separate sides of the 1993 border — who wants a structured place to name what their cultural heritage means: the decades before 1989, the remarkable year of transition, the 1993 separation, and the thirty-plus years of figuring out who you are in a changed world. Not a history book. Not a political document. A family identity framework for naming what Czech or Slovak culture gave you, what the transitions shaped, and what you are building with what survived. The output is not a record of history. It is Your Czech-Slovak Family Manifesto.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What name would you give the specific Czech or Slovak identity your family carries — the distinct national story within the shared history?
- What pattern do you notice in how the communist years and the Velvet Divorce are talked about — or not talked about — across generations in your family?
- What would you put in the real story — the cultural heritage, the history, and the identity being built across generations in a changed Europe?
Research basis
