A spark of freedom can light up the future of many.

#OnThisDay, 35 years ago, the Velvet Revolution began in Prague.

When people took to the streets in the autumn of 1989, they risked their own freedom to achieve it for all.

Their unity inspired Europe and the world, and their peaceful revolution changed the course of history forever.
