Talk:Czech Republic/@comment-4934358-20120317170713

Ok, I am from Czech republic and I must react: (And sorry for my english, I am not good in grammar) 1. We do not have gypsy roots, we are the Slavs! And we are very proud of it. Ok, there are some Celtic and German roots too, because of our location in central Europe, but WE ARE NOT GYPSIES! Grrr! Gypsies are something whitch traveled from India across the whole Europe. It is closed community.

2. Hedvika is not typical czech name. There are not so many girls with that name. More typical are Jana, Anežka, Eliška, Anna, Alena (not Alene for Moravia, czech names do not usually end with e, only Alice, Libuše and woman names which have two vowels abreast). Surname is ok, but more typical are Novák and Novotný, for woman it is Nováková, Novotná. And the best surmame for CZ is Švejk/Švejkova becouse of our national "hero." Švejk is from one book written by Jaroslav Hašek and it is person with typical czech character. It is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Good_Soldier_%C5%A0vejk

Very good book, you should read it. (The second great czech book is Saturnin, it is the same style as Švejk. I love it. There you can see czech character very good too.)

3. Czech can not be feminist, people there prefer traditional type of housewife. Only some girls from my generation have problem with using cooker. And they feel embarrassed because of it.

4. We do not see differences between Austria, Prussia or Germany. They speak german! They are the same idiots for us! Ok, not as big as after WWI and WWII, but they are. One interesting thing: Hitler said about us that we are "smiling bitches" (I do not know english equivalent but it is translation from "usměvavé bestie"). We do what you want, but if we can we stick a knife in your back. And comments:

1.Slovalia is propably younger, Slovensky Štat was founded in time about WWII (I do not have my papers here now). It was maybe the first time, when Slovakia had freedom, because it was part of Great Moravia, then part of Czech kingdom, then there were three centuries under Austria and Hungary.

2.There are only 70% of ateists. (Ok it is still very much)

3. We are not xenofobic, we only hate gypsies... and muslims ... and slovakian workes...and ukrainian workers...and... Ok, maybe we are, but I think that we have reason for this. In my opinion I do not belive in globalization. But czech people are very old-fashioned. It is very stressful when you have only have colorfull clothes. People look at you like on madman. Czech universal uniform are blue jeans.
