I’ll bet you beat me on this one. Where you have World War I and the Matterhorn, I have the Franco-Prussian War and the Jungfrau. Holy head-smack, Batman! what was I thinking!?

I was thinking the same and realized you’d be the only person who might say that, provided event that you came across this thread in time. So I went with the more obvious options 🙂  
[/QUOTE]  
I didn’t realize you played the Feud threads. In that case, change my answer to “Nobody but Švejk and me are going to answer that.” 😃

Czechoslovakia. Not Checho or Chezcho. Certainly not Czechoslavia ( **5-4-fighting** ) or Checkosalvacia ( **Zebra** ). Czechoslovakia. It’s where the Czechs and the Slovaks used to live.
