Most American families don't even talk about it. It gets wiped out in one generation, and as an old man, you have all these questions you would have liked to ask.
I hate when other people say "I'm so Bohemian!" when they mean they wear bright colors. They're confusing that look/style/culture with Roma which they confuse with Gypsy. It's like saying "I love turquoise, I'm so Cherokee!" No, you're just wrong three times.
@@WarLegend50 It's a joke. After Russia claimed that Ukraine is theirs, because it was historically a part of Russia, the Czechs claimed that Kaliningrad/Královec is theirs.
And Silesians See themselves as Silesians not something else. The Silesians in the Czech Republic may want to be near their Silesian brothers and sisters in Poland and not Poland itself.
@@MatthewTraceur That joke is old and it was not just a joke I guess. But it is not that much truth now :) There are some of us, who refuse to drink anything just because it's called wine :)
Bohemia and Moravia were electors in the HRE for close to 800 years, Bohemia even being a permanent elector and hosting the administrative capital of the empire several times

Only thing cechs and Slovak people need a movement then a protest in prague offering cechoslovak federation after end of presidental term of curnent president,and by referendum,cechoslavakia will be restored or finaly settled qestion if cechoslovak separation was good or not
Oh dear, oh dear! Technically the Czech Republic in that matter is the same case as the United Kingdom. Except that the Czech Republic is not kingdom anymore. Simply in the late medieval period and early modern period the czech state as kingdom was called the Lands of the Czech Crown. The Bohemian king automatically held the title Margrave of Moravia and Duke of Silesia.
Actually nobody use the term Bohemia now. It's like Czechia is both short for Czech Lands and also for Czechia solely. Moravians and SIlesians hate that.

Fun fact:bohemia is from bohemus,guy from slavic legend thats founded cechia,bohemia meams cechia in latin,so in cechia we call him grandfather cech(praotec čech)
What always confused me was that the Czech republic used Czechia as a nickname because the traditional "bohemia" is the name of the region.... Except the Czech word for Bohemia is Čechy, and Czechia is Čecho. That's like if the UK wanted a shorter name without using "England" for the whole island so used "Anglia" instead.
Well, Britania has that Britania word. But there is only word Čechy and it's renewed version Česko. Bohemia is more like latin word and latin is not that much of lingva franka anymore in here ;) So it's like this or some new word has to be invented. But it would surely cause more feuds then Česko. And believe me, that's hard enough. I hate that word. It's so... wrong! :D (we could call it simply Království before since there was not much of kingdoms around and not of it was called Czech - Království. But now we have republic and there are all around and it's not so distinguishing now, is it? :D )
I remember telling some friends that there are a bunch of countries whose name we use in the US isn't actually their name Like Czechia, it's not the Czech Republic, at least no one else calls it that And they said to me "I've never heard it called that"... yeah, my point exactly
So Bohemia is Germanic, both linguistically long ago and culturally (especially with ties to Bavaria, and south into Italy during HRE control), that Western Slavs moved into and mixed to create a syncretic ethnic group. Half of the rest were a slightly later influx of Western Slavs, who didn't mix with the Germanic people as much. The last has gone back and forth between Western Slavic groups of slightly different backgrounds, Moravia and Poland, for centuries. They've also been under the thumb of the Austrians, Hungarians, Russians, Prussians and Germans a time or two. So it is really just Western Slavs, Other Western Slavs, and Little-bit German Western Slavs.
Just for the record - are you aware that first mentioned slavic population in the area is mentioned at 7th century? Franks tried to invade Czechia and Morava (not of that name yet) and were beaten by those slavic people.
@@ondrejlukas4727 Yes, and Germanic people were in what became Bohemia as far back as the 3rd BCE. In the 3rd CE, during the Roman Crisis of the Third Century, multiple Germanic groups would settle in the area, and later more Germanic groups would move into the area, themselves pushed in by Gothic expansion. It is the region through which the Langobards moved into Italy, becoming the Lombards.
@@Nick-hi9gx and before celtic Boios lived here. and yet interestingly enough the big part of the genom of people in the area seems to be contiunous even farther from the past :)
@@ondrejlukas4727 Germanic people are just a later linguistic adoption over Halstatt cultures. Slavic culture is a dramatic shift, as it is a mix of Indo-European and the Baltic cultural hearths, where Germanic cultures were Indo-European linguistics over largely "Celtic" cultures.
@@Nick-hi9gx well, the slavic languages are quite different but also are germanic from gaelic. Anyway, of what I understood from different historians from Czechia the exact way of how those 2 shifts happened is unknown and probably always would be. No evidence of dramatical wars and bloodsheds or famine or plague. Also no writen evidence except few mentions from Romans and Greeks. They say that it seems that people just went away or rather slowly lost their culture and then adopted culture of newcomers after century or two. Like if Sámo's empire was first time when newcommers were really repelled rahter then merged. But what really happened before is just foggy.
Everyone alive on the planet forgets that the Entirety of Europe belongs to Sweden. And had it not been for the pesky Dutch and Russians, you'd all be speaking IKEA language right now.
Do not worry... Czechs outside Bohemia do not understand english well enough to get offended. (Just a joke, our english is getting pretty good, especially younger generations)
Kinda like how Europeans call Anericans 'yanks', but in the US it means people from the North East, and Southerners will get *reallllly* upset if you call them it.
It's interesting, but Bohemianism, style of life, doesn't refer to Czech at all, it refers to Romani people of Czech lands. Because back in 19th century France people viewed their style of life as free spirited, free from social conventions, natural and "exotic".
The artistic decision to enlarge the cutout of the country and have it over a backdrop of map of europe will cause massive damage to our american friends
