Is it 'Ukraine' or 'The Ukraine'?

When I was young people would say 'The people down the street are from the Ukraine' - is it more common now to 'they are from Ukraine'?

what about Czech Republic - is it The Czech Republic or just Czech Republic? I even hear people saying 'He's from Czech' which sounds funny, it would be like saying 'He's from American'
