, bi the

The blue triangle in the current
banner o the Czech Republic
, wi which Slovakie formed Czechoslovakie up tae the
dissolution o Czechoslovakie
, wis taken ower frae the blue strip o Slovakie's banner in 1920 intae the banner o Czechoslovakie. The banner o Czechoslovakie wis taken ower bi the Czech Republic in late 1992 in direct violation o the 1992 Act on the Diveesion o Czechoslovakie explicitly forbiddin state seembols tae be uised bi the twa successor states.
