Well, the area is still called "čechy" though... And I heard "bohém" used as a word for person too.

Oh, so it's latin... Thank you
@McMongoose @LukeAlmighty @givenup @Granwalder Certainly, in older Western literature, you can come across references to the location of Bohemia. For instance, in Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories, you can find the origin of Irene Adler, who hailed from Bohemia, a land known for its enigmatic magic and captivating women.
@LukeAlmighty @Granwalder @McMongoose @givenup Bohemia is an ancient Latin name for the region now known as the Czech Republic. The name "Praha", which refers to Prague, may have various origins. One theory suggests it could have derived from the Old Czech word "pražit", which means "to clear" or "to burn", possibly referring to the clearing of the forest where the castle was later built.
