Prague

Prague (Czech: Praha) is the capital and the largest city of the Czech Republic. It is one of the locations visited by Adam Jensen in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

Background
In 2015, the Czech Republic experienced an economic boom. Prague became one of the world's leading metropolitan cities as a result.

In 2028, two years after the Aug Incident, Adam Jensen is sent here on a mission by Task Force 29. His division of the task force is based in the city. During Jensen's time here, a terrorist attack takes place in Růžička Station, a large train station in the city. The perpetrators are believed to be connected to the Augmented Rights Coalition, a group which have a division in Golem City located on the outskirts of Prague.

The city is home to other factions such as the Dvali family who, for an unknown reason, protect one of Prague's augmentation dealers, Václav Koller.

The Palisade Bank Corporation have constructed innovative data storage facilities in the city, known as the Palisade Blades. They are an iconic part of the Prague skyline in 2029.

 * Růžička Station is apparently the present-day . Before the communist era, it was named the Wilson Station in honor of, the 28th US president who was the first head of a major world power to recognize the sovereignty of Czechoslovakia after it rebelled against the Austrian Empire. Presumably, it was renamed to Růžička Station after the death of Žofie Růžička, the fictitious first female president of Czech Republic, much like the real-world Ruzyne International Airport was renamed to Vaclav Havel Airport after the death of , the real-world first president of Czech Republic.
 * Čapkova Kašna (Čapek's Fountain) is presumable named after, an early 20th century Czech writer and playwright. Čapek is most famous for his novel ' and the play ', which introduced the word (derived from the Czech word "robota", meaning "servitude" or "work"). This is one of the earliest literally works, if not the first, which depicts the "robot as a threat" trope and an uprising of artificial intelligent beings, though certainly not the first one to feature an artificial being.
