Very similar mindset in that self reliance is a major thing, as is responsibility to provide and protect ones family. Both Czech Republic and Poland are on my list for places to visit again with the family someday due to their handling of current political issues and their resistance to being told what to do and how to act by the EU.

I visited Prague not long after The Wall fell, and the difference between it and East Germany was amazing. The Ossies (East Germans) were still standing around trying to figure out what happened and many of them with no idea what to do next. The Czechs were roaring ahead, Prague was full of tourists, the restaurants were going full-blast, there were Czech flags all over, a huge flower memorial to victims of communism at the Wenceslas statue in Wenceslas square. Their economy was already in second gear. I took a bus tour and the guide pointed out the former Communist Party Headquarters. I asked what they were doing with it now and she said, "It's a casino."

The Czechs were much more independent from their communist rulers, and were ready to be on their own. The Ossies...not so much.

I've had friends who visited Czech Republic for shooting and training events tell me that in some ways it is more firearm friendly than the US.
