Please do not let us get trapped in nationalistic nonsense. Losy was neither ethnically Swiss nor was he Czechian. The Cezka republica did not exist at the time, and Switzerland comprises several nations. In fact, Losy was an officer of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation which was ruled by the Habsburg family with its headquarter in Vienna. Which didn't imply they were Austrian. They simply were international. Just out of curiosity, does someone know which language Losy made use of in his letters? Mathias > Mon, 30 Apr 2012 08:16:53 -0700 He was actually ethnically Swiss.
