hinting their tartar history
Czechia?
The story of Czech, Lech and Rus
Easy as that
Or in our dialect Čeh means "small naughty, playful boy"
But probably shifted in meaning
Did you knew that the original Philadelphia is in Turkey, it was one of the Biblical Asian Churches.
How come the Unitedstatian one became more famous than it is beyond me.
@KoalaBear Oh you mentioned Sorbs, did you heard of a city with name very similar to Ljubjlana.
Lübeck was originally called Liubice, today it's the Alt-Lübeck part old town.
It was a seat of the Polabian Obotrites.
Here it was even featured in the Polish communist propaganda.
"We aren't here since yesterday, we had reached far to the west."
@National Trotskyist yeah lubice means "lovers"
But liubje is that wooden thing
When it was still Slavic we called it Ljubice, the modern one we call Lubeka.
Lubek is masculine
Ljubice is femminine
Hold on so it was germanised and reverted to slavic again?
Interesting
@National Trotskyist oh that means "we're not here since yesterday"
I understand
Yep.
You likely know how Austria holds so much of the Slovene land right.
Most of Eastern Germany was initially Slavic. As far as Liubice.
All the way from Gradec down
Yeah.
I think Austro-Bavaria was initially inhabited by West Slavic tribes and Slovenes.
Hence the pronounciation and diffrent dialect
Also in rome bavaria was called Vandalicia and boden see was called venetian sea
Well, slovenci, slovaki, same heart really
It's also seen in the heraldry, the former lands use the mythical panther which was the symbol of the Slovenes.
Noriški panter
One of the oldest emblems in europe
I think the animal got called after the mythical monster which was fire-breathing.
Damn thats a fine picture
Mind I steal it?
It's all yours :^).
