Yes, I think there is both a GOC-K and GOC-A presence in the Czech Republic. I think the GOC-A's Bishop Gavrilo is there actually.

They don't really get along there, for a number of reasons

I know you've mentioned in the stream before, but doesn't the GOC-K essentially consider the GOC-A to be heterodox, and they receive people from Avlona via baptism? In contradiction to the Apostolic Canons?

We only recently discovered this, as in the past year

You discovered this -meaning the baptism requirement and the 2 Synods not getting along - in the past year ?
[How did you learn that, by the way, as it's so far away ?
UNLESS it's top secret !]

I'd rather not talk about it at this time. I've made allusions to it on the YT channel.
