Czechia is short for The Czech Republic just like America is short for The United States of America. It just rolls off the tongue easier.
They changed it on April 2016 and invested aroud 1 000 000 000czk ( 45 987 583.352 usd ) into it. They wanted to name our country Czechia in 1993 right after the split of Czechoslovakia but that was rejected because people thought the name was ugly,stupid and other countries will mistake us with Chechnya.Completely off topic, but isn't the name of the country now Czechia?
I'm sure the politics plays a part in this. There are always people in politics who are there for their own benefit, not to serve the people.Sorry for the long rant ... No idea why i cant keep my posts short and simple : )
I readed this in our news too, my congratulations to this!
But how long it will take until the EU starts to discriminate the Czech Republik like they do with Hungary?
Myself, i would have party-time and an empty bar at the day the EU dies....
