Special Czech community in Romania struggles to survive
A small community of Czechs have been living in the Banat region of south-western Romania for almost two hundred years. In many ways the area looks like the Czech lands would have looked a century ago, with most of the work still done by hand. Alena Gecse, a local school teacher has co-authored a book for school children about the Czech minority in Romania. She told Radio Prague how the first wave of immigration began.
