"Czech 8x8 checkers are mainly played in Czech Republic and in Slovac Republic.
The rules are very similar to Spanish checkers, but priority for captures are lightly different : the king must always take first, even if a man can capture more men than it."

Depending of what you conside similarity, if you say its the variant more similar to the Spanish one (BTW Spanish Checkers years ago change their rules to be equal to Portuguese ones, but the international name remains Spanish... go figures)
here at BK, ok I agree. But in fact theres a lot of diferences between the 2 variants. I'm going to try to name all:
- The Board is a mirror
- Draws are automatic in same special situations. It means you have a number of limited moves to try to win the game after a special situation. If not the game is declared a draw. Doesn't need the agreement of both players.
- You jump always the maximum of pieces
- Jump Quality rule in the same number of pieces.

Last Note: The flying Kings are called Queens! :-)
