Stereotypes are deeply set in us and our task is to overcome them. Because they often are not true or just generalized opinions. These stereotypes create prejudices which are making understanding others cultures much more difficult.

Let me present a few stereotypes about the Czechs, and I have to say these are mostly true however still generalized.
