Yugoslavia continued to exist after that with reduced territory (today's Serbia and Montenegro). I have childhood memories of the existence of Yugoslavia, but not of Czechoslovakia.

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!

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
