    a) The transition was remarkably smooth

    Explanation:

    The term "Velvet Revolution" was coined and inspired in the acts of peaceful civil disobedience evidenced in anti-government protests that began 30 years ago in Czechoslovakia, on November 17, 1989. The uplifting element of the Velvet Revolution was the movement of student protesters who went out onto the streets of Prague. This revolution arouses interest because of the recent happenings in Berlin with the fall of the Wall and the growing discontent of the population with the communist regime in the country. The transition was remarkably smooth despite the acts of violence staged by the Czech government against the protestors. Czechoslovakia was on its way to democracy and having an elected President for the first time since 1948.
