When not exaggerated, this citizenship studies thing sounds pretty good. I mean, it's only good when people know how their country works and stuff like that. You know, minus the propaganda stuff :d

Unfortunately it's the propaganda that stuck in people's head :p

 

About 80% of educated young voters from the recent election don't know what "Regional Representative Council" (the upper house of the parliament) is despite it is repeated in all 3 stages of school (primary, junior high, and high school). Some even leave the ballot paper intact because the whole focus is the presidential race

Also congrats to our Finish, Swedish, Norwegian, Canadian, and Dutch users for being the most free. Do whatever you want (besides attempting to host a multi-sports games apparently...)

Happy independence day. Today the 5th July is also a national holiday in Slovakia and Czechia (the St. Cyril and Methodius day) one of the biggest national holidays, all stores and offices are closed...

 

but it is not what I wanted to say, today is also in Slovakia a special one, the day of the Slovaks living abroad :d Many cultural programs are going to be organized in Serbia (I heard in the radio that some interesting worldwide action will be orgaized tonight in Belgrade by our community living in Serbia), Croatia but also in the USA or Australia.

 

Happy day to all Slovaks everywhere on the globe :cheer:

    • Yeah. It was pretty bad that they cancel the contract with the original creative director after 7 months of work. I feel like politics, in this particular context of the changing of prime minister and the cabinet, may had caused changes in organizational decisions regarding the Sea Games including the direction of the opening ceremony. 
    • That's what I figured.  Wouldn't be a proper lead up to an Olympics without some media-fueled fearmongering.
