Czechoslovak Socialist Republic





HISTORY

The traditional name ''Československá republika'' (''Czechoslovak Republic'') was changed on July 11, 1960 (when the new constitution was put into effect) as a symbol of the "final victory of socialism" in the country, and remained so until the Fall Of Socialism in Czechoslovakia. Disputes about the new name followed; see Czech And Slovak Federal Republic for details.

Several other state symbols were changed in 1960.
