Abstract: The city of Brno is the capital of Moravia in the Czech Republic which was shaped by many historical events, its predominant textile industry was amongst the most important aspects of these criteria, since its main rivers cut through the city (Svratka, Svitava), this industry and its trade, was a main factor in shaping the city as a whole, alongside political conflicts, change of regimes. During the 1960s, after the planned style economy was settled completely, it resulted in big setbacks for the Czechoslovak economy, as the textile industry started to crumble. The final blow to this industry happened after the velvet revolution as privatization took place and most remaining factories were dismantled. This narrative had a big role in shaping how Brno looks today as the northern part of the city is more urbanized than the southern part which is more industrialized by nature, and unlike Prague, these two main rivers are not widely crucial to the public life. This also developed along with other factors a major problem with accommodation quality, price as official data reports increasing dissatisfaction from inhabitants with housing.
