Pionýr (Czech Republic)
Pionýr (- Czech, in English ''Pioneer'') is a Czech-based voluntary, independent, and nonpolitical organization for children, youth, and adults. It focuses on non-formal educational activities organized during leisure time. Pionýr draws partly on the traditions of the historical Pioneer Movement, an international communist children’s organization that was once active in Central and Eastern Europe and still exists in some former Communist countries. The Czech Pionýr is now associated with the International Falcon Movement - Socialist Education International, which promotes social democracy education for children worldwide. The term "Pionýr" embodies the idea of modern pioneering, reflecting a search for and commitment to socialist learning. Internationally, a pioneer is understood as someone who discovers new paths and champions progressive ideas. Pionýr strives to embody these ideals fully. In 2007, the organization updated its logo to a new design featuring a swallow e ...

Czech Language
Czech ( ; ), historically known as Bohemian ( ; ), is a West Slavic language of the Czech–Slovak group, written in Latin script. Spoken by over 12 million people including second language speakers, it serves as the official language of the Czech Republic. Czech is closely related to Slovak, to the point of high mutual intelligibility, as well as to Polish to a lesser degree. Czech is a fusional language with a rich system of morphology and relatively flexible word order. Its vocabulary has been extensively influenced by Latin and German. The Czech–Slovak group developed within West Slavic in the high medieval period, and the standardization of Czech and Slovak within the Czech–Slovak dialect continuum emerged in the early modern period. In the later 18th to mid-19th century, the modern written standard became codified in the context of the Czech National Revival. The most widely spoken non-standard variety, known as Common Czech, is based on the vernacular of ...

Triband (flag)
A triband is a Vexillology, vexillological style which consists of three stripes arranged to form a flag. These stripes may be two or three colours, and may be Charge (heraldry), charged with an emblem in the middle stripe. Not all tribands are tricolour flags, which requires three unique colours. Design Outside of the name, which requires three bands of colour, there are no other requirements for what a triband must look like, so there are many flags that look very different from each other but are all considered tribands. Some triband flags (e.g. those of Flag of Germany, Germany, Flag of Russia, Russia and Flag of the Netherlands, the Netherlands) have their stripes positioned horizontally, while others (e.g. that of Flag of Italy, Italy) position the stripes vertically. Often the stripes on a triband are of equal length and width, though this is not always the case, as can be seen in the flags of Flag of Colombia, Colombia and Flag of Canada, Canada. Symbols on tribands may ...

Pionýr (Czechoslovakia)
Pionýr (literally: Pioneer), officially Pioneer Organization of the Socialist Youth Union (, PO SSM; , PO SZM), was a youth Marxist-Leninist organization in communist Czechoslovakia that was a subdivision of the Socialist Youth Union. Although the organisation proclaimed to be voluntary, every child was expected to join from the age of six. Etymology The Czech word ''pionýr'' is an approximate synonym of the word ''skaut'' (scout). Both are loan words from English and both are connected with the Czech idealization of the Wild West. Therefore, the Pionýr's inspiration from the Scout movement is obvious. Activities Pioneer activities were taken from the Scout movement, the Sokol movement, and the Soviet Komsomol and its Vladimir Lenin All-Union Pioneer Organization, with which it was partnered. Original pioneer activities included old paper or herb collecting, described as "voluntary help for Czechoslovak industry". Collecting was a nationwide competition, and the winni ...
