Do you know how many people still refer to the ukrain? most of them are from the ukrain because they don't want o be thought of as communist russians. Really, how many dumb ass americans would know where the countries were on the map that were formerly czech. Isn't it just more easy to call it czech? maybe disrespectful, but who cares.
if you just call it czech (I suppose even without saying republic afterwards) it's still more correct than calling it czechoslovakia
