I was born in Czechoslovakia, and I have a small collection of stuff that lists the country after it stopped existing.

For example, I have a helmet that was "Made in Czechoslovia" in 1998, 6 years after it stopped existing. I'd love to buy one of these

Yugoslavia was such a mess for such a long time, it was on maps LONG after it split up, but with dotted lines for borders.

Also, I'm from Czechoslovakia!

We still have 9.5 months left of 2026, maybe they'll get back together by the end of the year.

It's not 1990 any more, you could update your workflow a tad
