Miss České republiky

Miss České republiky, originally named Miss Československo (Miss Czechoslovakia), is a national beauty pageant in the Czech Republic. It is the most prestigious beauty pageant in all of the Czech Republic.

1989–2009
The modern day Miss Československo/Miss Czechoslovakia pageant was founded in 1989. The first modern-day Miss Czechoslovkia was Ivana Christová of the East Slovak Region (from the part of the region that is now present-day Prešov). In 1993, Czechoslovakia split into two nations, the Czech Republic/Czechia and the Slovak Republic/Slovakia, the pageant as a result was held one last time as Miss České a Slovenské Republiky (Miss Czech and Slovak Republic). Later that year the first Miss Slovakia/Miss Slovensko was held and in the following year the pageant was restructured into Miss České republiky for the Czech Republic only with the first edition taking place. In 2010, Miss České republiky and its rival pageant, Česká Miss merged under the direction of former Miss Československo (Miss Czechoslovakia) of 1991, Michaela Maláčová, and two winners were selected, one for Miss Universe and the other for Miss World.

2018–present
In 2018, the Miss České republiky pageant returned after the organizers of Miss Summer discontinued the Miss Summer pageant and acquired the trademark and intellectual rights to Miss České republiky.
