I have a great-grandfather from Czechoslovakia. The only reason we continue to refer to it as such, even though he moved to the US and married after the separation of the countries, is because he refused to talk about it. My family knew he came from that area, but not whether he came from the Czech Republic or Slovakia. We all just assume some Bad Shit went down, and no-one pushed it.

Interesting! I hadn't thought much about that aspect of it, but the union and subsequent separation were both pretty traumatic, from what I know of it.

Same. Whatever happened in his life, specifically, we never learned. But that's why I make the distinction when it comes up, beyond referencing him (which, realistically, is every time but right now and 6/7 months ago). Which it does fairly often, when you're talking about the "classical" and/or opera scene in Europe.
