Hello Frederick,
as noted before, level 4 (kraj) would be more natural division for most
people. Another question - would you add subregions to the whole country
or will there be only these regions available and not a CZ as a whole
country. If it will be replacement, will there be some period with both
to be generated for fluent switch of dependent tools/workflows etc?
Thanks a lot

Dear Czech community,
with https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/czech-republic-latest.osm.pbf
soon reaching 1 GB, it becomes time for me to create sub-regions for
your country on the Geofabrik download server.
I see that you have mapped these regions in OSM on admin level 3:
Střední Čechy
Severovýchod
Praha
Jihozápad
Jihovýchod
Severozápad
Moravskoslezsko
Střední Morava
And you have mapped the kraje on admin level 4:
Královéhradecký kraj
Olomoucký kraj
Liberecký kraj
Ústecký kraj
Plzeňský kraj
Středočeský kraj
Kraj Vysočina
Praha
Jihočeský kraj
Pardubický kraj
Jihomoravský kraj
Karlovarský kraj
Moravskoslezský kraj
Zlínský kraj
I understand that the adminlevel3 regions are just statistical regions
that have little administrative relevance, and the adminlevel4 regions
are the "true" regions.
My question to you is, which would be more useful to have? I would
prefer to use the adminlevel3 regions because there are fewer of them.
But are these regions actually well known - would someone who lives in,
say, Olomouc, immediately know that they are in the Střední Morava
region, or are these regions so obscure and unimporant that it would be
better to use the kraje for splitting?
Bye
Frederik
