AHC Polish - Czech linguistic border pushed further west

The Polish-Czech linguistic border is near Opava, I count the Lachs as Polish, is there a way for the Polish and Czech linguistic Border to be further west and deeper whithin Moravia?
 
Given that a language is a dialect with an army and a navy, as the saying goes, and given dialect continua, I imagine that rearranging what is considered 'Polish', what 'Czech' and what 'Slovak', or Silesian or Wendish or whatever, is probably fairly easy.

You might have to change the focus of 'Polish' to do that.
 
I count the Lachs as Polish

Well, you might count them as polish, but I tell you as a person, whose family speak czech, slovak and polish, and who know several people from Lašsko, that the Lach dialect is significantly closer to czech than to polish.

I am just counting them as polish due to Lach being intermediate between Polish and Czech and also because their ethnic is another word for Pole.
 
That doesnt change the fact that its a variant of czech with some polish influence, not polish with czech :)

I agree.
Is there any way to totally polonize these people completely and make the polish - czech linguistic border to be deeper in Moravia?
