The first part of the article examines changes in the ethnic structure of population on the territory of the Czech Republic from the historical aspect. The second part is focused on analysis of changes in the ethnic and demographic structure of foreigners in the Czech Republic in the 1990s and at the start of 21st century. The intensity of migration streams and the long-term destinations of immigrants are the main factors that are contributing to the growing number of foreigners and influencing their structure by residence status, and regional distribution. The demographic characteristics of foreigners also differ by their purpose of residence. Despite increasing number of foreigners is the Czech Republic very homogeneous state. Persons of Czech nationality (incl. Moravian and Silesian) made up 94% of the population in 2001, the largest other ethnic group was made up Slovaks. The descriptive analysis is based mainly on data from population censuses and from publication “Foreigners in the Czech Republic” (Czech Statistical Office)
