Etymology
The name comes from the Slavic *Kostelьcь, Kostel - a stronghold (also a church, derived from Latin castellum).[1][2] See e.g. Slovak Ducové-Kostolec (Great Moravian stronghold), Czech Kostelec or Polish Kościelec.

gollark: Probably. I think it's required by some law or other, or at least they decided to interpret it that way.
gollark: It is apparently blocked as over-18 content, which makes a slight bit of sense because it could let you access some indirectly, but seriously why.
gollark: The wikipedia page for `The Underground History of American Education` seems to have archive.org links to some stuff, but naturally my mobile network blocks archive.org because that makes sense and is an entirely reasonable thing to do.
gollark: I've heard it said that it works more to teach conformity, or make people happier with low level abuse.
