Last month the land of the Turks officially changed the English name of the country to Türkiye. And if you’re wondering how a country determines the name used in a foreign language, it’s simple. All export products will now bear the English language text, Made in Türkiye.
And at the end of 2019, Holland was dropped as an alternative to the Netherlands.
In 2016, the Czech Republic officially adopted the name Czechia (though many Czechs hate that name). I guess the postal service didn’t get the memo, as stamps are still being inscribed Czech Republic.

Stamps - the bear necessities of life.
I should quit giving them money-sucking ideas!
