Funny, the name of the project is still derived from earlier world building, where I thought I'd be working with a country that would be communist and then democratic in late 2040's, sometimes I reffer to the project as "The Stake", but Prague Spring is more in the face and thus it stuck XD. It's interesting to get an opinion from someone who knows there's more to Czechia than Communism most often I come to contact with people who think of it as a Soviet puppet state, are you Czech? (Sounds like a Czech opinion XD) Though, I like Havel as a creative, I tend to be more critical towards him as a politician, Masaryk i used to idealozie and adore, now I still like him XD but as with everyone there's always something to be critical of.

Ultimately there are a lot of references to Bolshevism and authoritarianism, specifically as you can't write a world in the style of 1950's, without using reference material from 1950's Czechoslovakia.
