Bohemia — Not random

Will happen on July 30, 1419

Description

Religious dissent in Bohemia, caused by the low moral state of the clergy and the great schism, had grown slowly in the 14th century. It found a leading figure in Jan Hus, a priest and professor of theology at the university of Prague. Influenced by the teachings of John Wyclif, he developed several reformatory demands, including the administration of the communion in both kinds to all church members, a much stricter adhesion to the bible and the Commandments, a radical reformation of the clergy and the abolition of Papal infallibility. These views were attacked as heretic by the University of Prague in 1403, however since he enjoyed the protection of the King he could continue to spread them and even became rector of the university. In 1410, when his influence had grown significantly and he had gathered already a large amount of followers, the Archbishop of Prague excommunicated him, which did not stop him from teaching his ideas and increasing what had soon become a popular movement, though. In 1414 he was summoned to the Council of Constance to justify his views, having been guaranteed safe-conduct by Emperor Sigismund. Ignoring this safe-conduct, the Council condemned him as a heretic and had him burned at the stake. Thereby he became a martyr for the Bohemians and his views became even more popular.

Bohemia — Not random

Will happen on August 17, 1419

Description

A broken man, Vaclav IV died of a second stroke on August 16th 1419. His brother, Emperor Sigismund, immediately claimed the throne and was acknowledged as rightful heir by the crown lands and by the remaining catholics in Bohemia, mostly in the crown lands Moravia, Silesia and Lusatia where there still was a catholic majority, however the Hussites who at that time already dominated most of Bohemia proper refused to accept him, fearing suppression of their faith and despising him for his betrayal of Jan Hus that led to his execution at the stake in 1415. Armed resistance against royal authority and violence against Romanists, especially Germans, began almost immediately. Queen Sophia, widow of Vaclav, first acted as regent in Bohemia and tried to maintain at least a bit of central authority in Prague and to secure the throne for her brother-in-law, however she was opposed by the Hussites in Prague and had few effective control over Bohemia. On November 13th, she had to conclude a truce with thecitizens of Prague, having failed to suppress them with hired mercenaries, basically acknowledging that the Hussite movement had become impossible to control, let alone suppress it. For almost two decades large parts of Bohemia would be in Hussite hands.

Description

The Hussite rebels are defeated, and royal authority in Bohemia has been restored. What remains is the question how to deal with the remaining Hussites. It is evident that the radicals among them need to be persecuted harshly, but there are also, especially among the nobility, lots of moderates, the so-called Utraquists. If we decide to suppress them as well, we would cleanse Bohemia completely from heresy and strengthen the authority of the catholic King, on the other hand, this might make many Hussites leave the country which would weaken the country's military and economic strength substantially. Therefore some of the King's advisors advocate giving certain concessions to the Romanists.

Sigismund, King of Germany, Hungary and Bohemia, died without male issue. Having faced this for some time, Sigismund had chosen his longtime ally and friend Albrecht of Austria, who had proven to be a capable soldier during the Hussite Wars, as his successor in all three Kingdoms and married him to his sole daughter Elizabeth. The last years of his reign were almost exclusively dedicated to ensuring the succession. He eventually got Bohemia to accept Albrecht, however when Albrecht rose to the Bohemian throne after Sigismund's death, a part of the Utraquist nobility and the remaining Taborites stood up in revolt against him, dissatisfied with Sigismund's reign, afraid of the Compactata being ignored and leery of German influence. Therefore Albrecht's short reign was unstable and he entered his Kingdom only once to be coronated.

Description

In 1439 Albrecht of Habsburg, King of Hungary, fell ill, probably of cholera, while campaigning against the Ottomans. Within one month he died, leaving two minor daughters and his pregnant wife Elizabeth. For the case of the unborn child being male, Albrecht declared that his son would be his successor in all his fiefs just before his death. Upon his death, the Bohemian nobility formed two conflicting parties. The 'national' one, led by George of Podiebrad and consistingmainly of Utraquist Hussites,insisted on Bohemia's right to elect its King and a strict adherence to the Compactates thatguaranteed religious freedom to the moderate Hussite. Remembering the Jagiellons' support for the Hussite rebels and preferring a Slavic monarch to a German one, they wanted to offer the Bohemian throne to the Polish prince Casimir. Opposedto them was the 'Romanist' or 'Austrian' party under Oldrich of Rozmberk that acknowledged the hereditary rights of Albrecht's unborn child and advocated a return to the Roman church. The two parties finally came to an agreement calledthe 'Letter of Peace'. In this treaty both parties recognized the validity of the compacts, confirmed the appointment of Jan of Rokycan, a moderate Utraquist, as Bishop of Prague against the will of the Pope, and agreed on a compromise regarding the succession of Albrecht. The Nationalists abandoned the candidature of Casimir, but pressed their demand for an adult King -which was in the interest of most Romanists who did not want to be ruled by a baby as well. Thus the throne was offered to Duke Albrecht of Bavaria-Munich.

Description

Albeit nominally King of Bohemia, Ladislaus remained in Austria under the control of his uncle, Emperor Friedrich III. Meanwhile Bohemia still lacked a regular government, the struggle between Nationalists and Romanists broke out again and threatened to turn into civil war. In order to save the country from falling into anarchy, the estates of Bohemia, Moravia, Silesia and Lusatia were summoned for a general meeting in 1446. This diet attempted to establish an effective administration of the Kingdom for as long as its King was a child. It was decreed that the members of the estates were to be divided into three bodies, the 'curiae', representing the nobles, the knights and the towns - who were granted such a big deal of influence for the first time - that deliberated separately and only met for a final decision in which each of the three had one vote. The efforts to appoint a regent however failed as well as the negotiations with the Pope, regarding the religious status of Bohemia.

Description

After the diet of 1446's failure to restore order by appointing a regent that was mainly due to the Romanists' unwillingness to cooperate and their secret efforts to sabotage the negotiations with the Pope, the Nationalist leader George of Podiebrad decided to appeal to the fortune of war. He assembled a considerable army in Kutna Hora, marched to Prague and seized the town almost without resistance. Having put himself in control of most of the country and enjoying popular support, he assumed the regency over the Kingdom. While both the Diet and the young King's guardian Friedrich III sanctioned his title in 1451, the Romanists and the few remaining fanatic Taborites violently opposed him.

After the premature death of the youthful King Ladislaus Postumus, son of Albrecht of Habsburg, conflict over his succession in the Kingdom of Bohemia arises. Ladislaus' closest relative, Emperor Frederick III, insists on the dynastic principle and claims to be rightful heir. While such a union with Austria is indeed rather popular among those who have already supported Albrecht of Habsburg and before the Luxemburg Kings, the idea is opposed by the powerful former regent Oldrich z Rozmberka who now sees his own chance on the throne.

After Ladislaus Postumus' death in 1457 there was no question about his succession. Although there was a number of foreign candidates, it was obvious that the only possible choice was the most powerful and most popular man in Bohemia: George of Podiebrad. On February 27th 1458 the estates unanimously elected him, with even his Romanist enemies, voting for Podiebrad. The election was enthusiastically welcomed by the populace. Podiebrad soon began to restore order, to consolidate his authority and to revive the economy. Thus the first years of his reign seemed quite prosperous and Bohemia, likely to return to the power within the Empire it had enjoyed during the reign of Charles IV. The Romanists however, continued to oppose him and secretly conspired against Podiebrad with the Pope.

Albrecht of Wittelsbach, King of Bohemia, has died.

Two parties among the Bohemian nobility have formed: a 'national' one with the Hussite Jiri Podiebrad its leader and the 'Romanists', headed by the catholic Oldrich of Rozmberk. Popular opinion in Bohemia demands the election of Podiebrad, the nobility and especially the church prefer Rozmberk.

Description

The more moderate wing of the Hussites of Bohemia had been granted limited religious freedom in 1436 by the Compactates and since then practiced its faith openly in Bohemia, tolerated by the Catholic church. When Pius II rose to the holy see, he was determined to end this situation. He got George of Podiebrad who was a Hussite himself to promise converting to catholicism and suppressing all heresy in Bohemia just before his election in 1458. Podiebrad however, while indeed planning to return to the Roman Church himself, had no intention to persecute his former coreligionists and insisted on the Compactates. As a reaction, on March 31st 1462 Pius declared that the Compactates had been valid only for the generation that lived back then and were now invalid and demanded Bohemia's full return to catholicism. At an assembly of the estates in Prague, George refused and said he would to his death remain true to the communion of both kinds, and that he was ready to risk his life and his crown in defense of his faith.

Description

After George's refusal of the church's demands to suppress the Hussite faith in 1462 the Romanist party in Bohemia became even more embittered against the King whom they regarded both as a heretic and as a political enemy who was about to curtail the nobility's privileges. At a meeting in Zelena Hora on November 28th 1465 most of them formed a confederacy championed by Zdenek of Sternberg against him and began open revolt. The lands of the crown, Silesia, Moravia and Lusatia, that were almost entirely catholic opposed George most strongly. He completely lost control of these lands to the Catholics after the formation of the confederacy. While the Royalists obtained some successes in Bohemia and quickly seized all castles held by the rebels there, they failed in Silesia, Moravia and Lusatia. George's rule and the survival of the Hussite faith were seriously endangered.

Description

In order to back the rebels of Zelena Hora and depose Podiebrad, Pope Paul II excommunicated Jiriz Podiebrad on December 23rd 1466, released all his subjects from their oaths of allegiance and searched for a reliably catholic prince who would drive him away and take the Bohemian throne. After Friedrich II of Brandenburg's refusal to champion the campaign, Pius turned to Matthias Corvinus of Hungary. Betraying his former ally Podiebrad, Matthias accepted and invaded Moravia. The supporters of Podiebrad successfully prevented him from entering Hungary, but the lands of the Bohemian crown all fell to the King of Hungary. At a meeting in the Moravian town of Olmütz on May 3rd 1469, the catholic nobility proclaimed him King of Bohemia.

Description

Even after the death of Jiri Podiebrad and the election of Vladislav Jagiello, warfare between Bohemia and Matthias Corvinus of Hungary who maintained his claim to the Bohemian throne continued. Despite Polish support for Bohemia, no side eventually managed to gain the upper hand: while Matthias failed in all his attempts to invade Bohemia proper and was threatened by Hungarian rebels and Friedrich III, the lands of the Bohemian crown, Silesia, Moravia and Lusatia, were almost completely occupied by him and could, despite several determined attacks, never be recovered. Realizing this, and desiring to secure their positions, both parties agreed on a peace in Olmütz which came into effect in 1478. By the treaty, Corvinus was to retain the lands of the Bohemian crown until his death when Bohemia could buy them back for 400.000 Florins and was allowed to style himself King of Bohemia in these lands, but gave up his claim on the rest of Bohemia.

Description

Jiriz Podiebrad died in 1471, in the middle of his struggle with Mathias Corvinus of Hungary who headed a 'crusade' against Bohemia and claimed its throne. Since his supporters were in a precarious military situation, having lost all lands of the Bohemian crown to the King of Hungary, Podiebrad had shortly before his death, despite being father of several adult sons himself, asked prince Vladislav of Poland to succeed him in order to save Hussitism and Bohemian independence. Vladislav indeed succeeded him and initiated a half century of Jagiellon rule in Bohemia which proved to be backwards, intolerant in religious matters, devastating for Bohemia's economy and eventually resulted in the disaster of 1526. However had Podiebrad been in a better situation, he might very well have used the opportunity to establish his dynasty as hereditary national Kings of Bohemia.

Description

When getting elected King as a 15-year-old in 1471, Vladislav II had several promises to the Bohemian emissaries, including the absolute maintenance of the Compactata and supporting the Utraquist Archbishop of Prague Jan Rokycan. Therefore his election had been regarded as a victory of the Nationalists and Hussites who trusted in him to protect their religious freedom and national autonomy. Their hopes were soon disappointed: while indeed remaining officially faithful to the Compactata, he secretly promoted catholicism. His government officials were only part of the section of the Hussites closest to Rome and always willing to accept compromises with the Church while all Hussite extremists, especially the recently emerged Bohemian Brethren, were persecuted harshly. Among the Hussites, these policies caused massive dissent and unrest. In Prague, several riots took place and the city hall was stormed by radical Hussites. In order to protect their interest they considered endangered by the King, Hussite nobles began to organize themselves in a league again, openly acting against the King.

After a decade of unrest and decay of central authority, a meeting of all Bohemian estates at Kutna Hora in 1485 managed to restore peace and stability. Catholics and Hussites agreed to tolerate each other's faith, promised to refrain from violence and formally confirmed the Compactata. While the imminent threat of a civil war had been prevented, the decision - in which King Vladislav had not participated - meant a further reduction of royal authority.

Description

A decree issued by Vladislav II in 1487 under the pressure of the high nobility established serfdom in Bohemia. This dealt a devastating blow to the military and economic strength of the country, and its free peasantry had been the backbone of both its prosperous economy and especially the superior armies of the Hussite leaders and Jiri Podiebrad. The King became dependent completely on support from the nobility through feudal levy, loosing the greatest advantage he had enjoyed over his neighbours.

Description

During his reign, the incompetent and weak King Vladislav allowed the nobility to gradually recover the privileges they had lost during the Hussite wars and under Jiri Podiebrad and more, negating the social and political development of the last century. The King could only obtain funds with the consent of the high nobility, and the rights granted to the townsmen before were entirely abolished. Those changes were definitely codified in a decree called the 'Regulations of King Vladislav' issued in 1500. While it confirmed and increased the rights and influence of the nobles and the knights, it ignored those of the burghers. The towns were no longer represented in diets and virtually helpless against encroachments from the nobility. Great discord among the towns was the logical consequence.

After several years of severe instability and unrest due to the towns' resistance against the abolition of their rights and constant feuding between rival parties among the nobility, the estates, including the towns, convened on the anniversary of Wenceslas, national saint of Bohemia, September 28th 1517. At that meeting, soon known as the 'Diet of St. Wenceslas', they finally managed to achieve a settlement regarding the issues that had been dividing Bohemia. In exchange for renouncing several old privileges, the towns had their most important rights, municipal autonomy and a place in the diet, confirmed again by the nobility. The three estates agreed to 'live together in friendly intercourse, as men belonging to the same country and race'. The compromise achieved at the diet was of outstanding significance for Bohemia's further constitutional history. Besides, the diet also confirmed the regency of the supreme burgrave Zdenek Leo of Rozmital and limited the influence of the minor King Ludvik and his guardians to a minimum.

When his father Vladislav II died, Ludvik II was only 10 years old and received Maximilian of Austria and Sigismund of Poland as guardians. Bohemia was left to the control of its great nobles, with the supreme burgrave Zdenek Leo of Rozmital having put himself effectively in charge of the country. When in 1522 Ludvik visited Bohemia for the first time, he immediately dismissed all Bohemian state officials, including Rozmital, intending to increase his authority in the country. He appointed Karel of Münsterberg as royal regent during his absence and Jan of Wartenberg as supreme burgrave.

Description

The new officials appointed by King Ludvik in 1522, Karel of Münsterberg and Jan of Wartenberg, were supporters of the advanced Hussites who also seemed to show some sympathy for the teachings of Luther. There were even rumours of them planning to seize power, convert the country officially to Lutheranism and make Karel, who was a grandson of Jiri Podiebrad and his successor to the Duchy of Münsterberg, national King. Although these were unconfirmed and probably created by their enemies, their sympathy for heresy was enough for Ludvik, who at that time was hoping for support from the Pope against the Ottomans, to dismiss them and restore Zdenek Leo of Rozmital in his offices as regent and supreme burgrave.

Shortly after being restored to his offices, Zdenek Leo of Rozmital renewed his family's old feud with the Rozmberks, trying to take advantage of his new powers. The feud between the country's two most powerful dynasties made the already unstable situation turn suddenly into civil war. Most of the nobles and cities of Bohemia took sides, often hoping to settle their private conflicts in the process. Meanwhile, Hungary which was also ruled by King Ludvik was being invaded by the Ottomans and he sent a desperate plea for help to his Bohemian subjects. While the Rozmberks and their supporters granted the help, intending to gain the King's support, the members of the Rozmital faction purposefully delayed sending their forces.

With financial help from the King of Denmark, he went on to set up an observatory on the island of Hveen in Copenhagen Sund. The observatory, called Uraniborg, was equipped with exceptionally large and accurate instruments. At Uraniborg Tycho made twenty years' worth of astronomical observations. After quarrelling with the King of Denmark, Tycho closed down his observatory and sought a place for himself and his instruments at various courts. In 1599 he was appointed Imperial Mathematician to the Holy Roman Emperor, Rudolph II, in Prague.

Description

The astronomer Johannes Kepler joined Tycho Brahe as an assistant in Praga, to help with mathematical calculations. When Tycho died, Kepler succeeded him as Imperial Mathematician. Tycho's observations of planetary positions, which were made using instruments with open sights (a telescope was not used for astronomy until about 1609), were much more accurate than any made by his predecessors. They allowed Kepler, who was a convinced follower of Copernicus, to deduce his three laws of planetary motion and to construct astronomical tables, the Rudolphine Tables, whose enduring accuracy did much to persuade astronomers of the correctness of the Copernican theory.

Description

In 1608 the tension increased between the catholic parts and the protestant parts of the empire. The Protestants entered a union under the prince Fredrik of Pfalz that was supported by Brandenburg and Hessen-Kassel. The Catholics answered by forming a union of their own, the catholic league. It was led by Maximilian of Bavaria. In 1618 the Protestants of Bohemia rebelled. They continued to choose a protestant King of Bohemia, prince Fredrik of Pfalz. The emperor couldn't accept this, as he also was King of Bohemia. He sent his experienced commander Jean Tcerclaes Tilly with his troops to Bohemia and in the battle of the White Mountain (8 November 1620), Fredrik of Pfalz reign ended and all protestant resistance in Austria and southern Germany was crushed. Fredrik escaped from Bohemia and was named winter King due to his short reign.
