Bohemian

Bohemians are inhabitants of Bohemia, part of the Czech Republic. Inhabitants come from both Czech and German stock, due to Bohemia's position on the borderlands between Germany, Austria, and the Czech Republic and its history, which includes rule by earlier incarnations of each of these countries. Because of the many changes in government and the resulting population migrations, one cannot say with complete confidence that a Bohemian is a German or a Czech. In fact, the Boii, for whom the land was named (by the Romans), were a Celtic people, who moved westward. Since then, the inhabitants of the area have been predominantly Slavic.
