Who were the Czechs ? I'm trying to get a handle on who the Czechs were BEFORE the Czech Republic or Czechoslovakia existed. I see references like: "...the Czechs in the 11th. century...", and then I find there was no Czechoslovakia until the 20th century! Could anyone tell me, without adding to my confusion, who the Czechs were historically? Please reply to: <[email protected]> Thanks....
