According to wikipedia, "Ch" is a character of the Czech alphabet in the sense that it impacts alphabetical ordering ("Ch" sorts between H and I), in the same way Ł or Ę are apparently characters from the Polish alphabet distinct from L and E respectively (wikipedia mentions that "być comes after bycie").
That is unlike, say, french where É and E are the same character alphabetically.
