czech republic is in central europe the state of this article is part of the reason why people are making such confusions especially more ridiculous is that they you would replace the mention of north caucasus in favor of north slope of caucasus mountains which isnt even a geographical area other than denoting the mountains in that region countries are located within continents yet for some reason you refuse to allow this article to be denoted a continent this single factor alone would have made a massive difference for readers i'm tired of arguing with people who are essentially wiki squatters refusing to nudge on a given article
