The town of West, Texas (just north of Waco) is very publicly proud of their Czech heritage. Of course the town was named before the Czechs got there (if you asked me, it was named by an uncreative dumbass).
If you believe the movie "Far and Away" to be based on any kind of truth, then much Irish emmigration was based on conflict between peasant farmers and the landlord class. Land was cheap and free in America at that time. Of course not quite so many made it to the west - Boston and NYC are veeerryyy Irish.

I read an article about Cuba, Texas in the National Geographic. They said the twon hall burned down along with all the original heritage, except for a single canvas painting (the size of a wall) of the old town square in Prague. Looked sweet, if you ask me. It sais the only Czech word they know is "pivo" - beer...
Kintaro:
I know one thing about Czech for sure, the women are dang fine.
Personally the most beautiful women are Indian though. I have a thing for Indian women.
