Description This article seeks to answer the question: How are international relations between political elites of medieval Bohemia and Empire depicted in the historiographical masterpiece of Lampert of Hersfeld? Evidence provided by Lamperts Annals suggests that in the 11th century the model of czech-german integration was based on two rules. Firstly Bohemians had to pay a tribute, secondly Přemyslid Dukes subjected themselves and owed loyalty to the majesty of Salian kings, which resulted into the participation on the military campaigns and court assemblies. However it may seem paradoxical, Bohemian dukes took part in the imperial government but Bohemian nation was labelled as barbarian and „banished from“ the civilized Realm ruled by Salian dynasty.
