It's a cold war thing. Czechia was part of the Eastern Bloc for 40 of the last 70 years. And is also situated in the east of Europe. I don't really understand

I don't really understand the controversy

I mean Czechia/Eastern Germany/Western Poland is pretty much the centre of the land-mass from Ireland/Portugal in the West to Ukraine/Estonia in the East. So, it's not wrong.
