| Popis | In Moravia (the eastern part of what is now the Czech Republic), a part of barbarian Europe, a large and solid-state formation emerged towards the end of the first millennium – at least according to British historian Peter Heather, who believes that “. . . Moravia saw the fastest moving game of Pass the Eastern European Parcel”.
