On this day, December 3rd, 1402, a large-scale invasion was launched by the Hungarian King Sigismund of Luxembourg against the rebellious Bohemian lands that remained loyal to King Wenceslaus IV.

This operation, though little known, was the largest in the Margraves Moravian Wars, then the most violent. Three cities were besieged simultaneously, villages were burned and looted, and fortresses were attacked and occupied.

This is the story of the winter military campaign in Bohemia of 1402-1403.

[Thread]🧵Image Since March 1402, the Kingdom of Bohemia had been plunged into civil war and anarchy. King Wenceslaus IV of Bohemia had been kidnapped by the League of Lords, a group of high-ranking lords seeking greater power and control, with the support of King Sigismund of Hungary.

The situation became so uncontrollable that King Sigismund went to Bezdez Castle in June 1402 to trap and capture Margrave Prokope of Luxembourg, who had taken the lead of the resistance in Bohemia.

Sigismund imprisoned him in Bratislava and Wenceslaus IV in Vienna in July 1402.Image
