I agree but we have to follow the official IAU description of the name. See: https://planetarynames.wr.usgs.gov/Feature/5015 You can ask them why it is still "Czechoslovakia" and was not updated. But this is probably related to the name approval date in 1935, this is the name of the country at this time during the first republic. |
