Název prý vznikl na základě situace, kdy před mnoha lety jistý muž tesal práh svého domu, který byl jedním z prvních na místě dnešního Pražského hradu…
So, it is named from a door sill.

Don't get the wrong idea.
We are peaceful nation with no strong racist tendencies...
But cikáni....
@Granwalder @McMongoose @Dwight88
Good, because he's the most nationalistic guy we have in the government... -_-
Yes, it is that bad.

Praha.... Obviously
@givenup @McMongoose @Granwalder
I am seriously not sure...
I wasn't paying that much of an attention in history.
@Granwalder @McMongoose @givenup
Well, the area is still called "čechy" though... And I heard "bohém" used as a word for person too.
@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.

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.
