"Ceska Zbrojovka" is the denomination for the "CZ" in the original pistols. If they spelled Prague "Praga", then that is the Spanish spelling for Prague and would not be spelled this way on a real CZ.
What I believe you have is a copy someone wanted to make look like a CZ, much like the Smith and Wesson revolvers, which were made in Spain prior to World War 2, which copied the S&W logo and trademarks.
This pistol is a crude attempt to copy a known trademark, in my opinion and is not worth purchasing.
