Národní Listy
''Národní listy'' ("The National Newspaper") was a Czech newspaper published in Prague from 1861 to 1941. History The decision to start ''Národni listy'' began in September 1860. The first issue of the newspaper was first published in January 1861 in an edition of 7000 copies. From 1861 to 1894 it was published by Julius Grégr; since 1874 it was the main newspaper of the Young Czech Party.

A newspaper is a periodical publication containing written information about current events and is often typed in black ink with a white or gray background. Newspapers can cover a wide variety of fields such as politics, business, sports and art, and often include materials such as opinion columns, weather forecasts, reviews of local services, obituaries, birth notices, crosswords, editorial cartoons, comic strips, and advice columns.
