    @lonelyplanet Especially the Czech Republic is not Eastern Europe! (Geographically, historically and politically).
    The almost whole country is geographically more on the western side than the location of Vienna.
    Bohemian kingdom (today the Czech Republic) has been more than 1000 years both politically and culturally connected with France, Luxembourg, Germany, Austria ..., historically we have never been connected to Eastern Europe except for 41 years of oppression of communism.
    Therefore, I'll be glad that this "Eastern" stereotype about Central European countries will end. Unfortunately, these videos don't help to it.

    • @Paulie8837
      @Paulie8837 4 года назад +1

      @Rob Smith :))
      The demarcation line defining "Eastern" Europe was only a political deal, which was valid for 41 years of Soviet repression.
      For Czechs, Europe looked like for hundreds of years like this:
      shorturl.at/gvBS4
      Czech (Bohemian) kingdom was joined to the Holy Roman Empire from 11. century. (Czechs even ruled the Empire from 1346-1437.)
      The Czech language is western Slavic and I don't say that Czechs are not Slavs. I only say that is stupid to call Czechs as eastern Europe due to 40 years of political games after WW2, although the reality is for thousand years different.
      Btw. when you mention genetics...
      Genetically are Czechs Slavics only from 35%. The other 35% is Germanic and Celtics origin.

    This feels like a never-ending story: Czech Republic and its capital Prague are located in CENTRAL Europe, NOT in Eastern Europe. Four decades of the socialist/communist regime couldn't change a fact that has been legitimate for over a thousand years! Czech Republic's location is almost identical to that of Austria (only a bit more to the north) and Prague is located approx. 200km more western than Vienna! Both countries should be called Central European, yet to most Americans a many West Europeans is Austria "western" and Czech Republic "eastern". That regime you're referring to ended 30 years ago! Czech Republic is a highly developed, stable and safe country and its economy is in much better shape than that of most South European countries that are called "western" for some reason. Czechs have much stronger geographical, historical, cultural and economical ties to Austria and Germany, rather than to Eastern European countries like Romania or Bulgaria.
