The 70th anniversary of the state of Israel is an excellent occasion to remember what Herzl said and check what happened in reality.

Israel is the world-wide start-up nation. It's time to get acquainted with the person who gave the impetus to its foundation.

In 1902, Theodore Herzl published his book "Altneuland" (Old New Land). The plot is a distant future in which a Jewish State is already created. This book is a tale-guide to the builders of the new society on the Promised Land:

- The Third Temple is build

- The first Jewish opera in Haifa

- Separation of religion and the state

- Bicycle paths and highways

- Equal rights for women

- Jews and Arabs live in peace and harmony

- The railway from Jaffa to Cairo

All this is only a small part of the great dream of Theodor Herzl.

The 70th anniversary of the state of Israel is an excellent occasion to remember what Herzl said and check what happened in reality.
