Europe, 1618: The Bohemian Revolt ist just about to begin. Eventually it would hurl all central Europe into one of its worst tragedies, the Thirty Years War. The immediate cause for the war was the Defenestration of Prague 1618 but there were a plethora of reasons for the outbreak of the war. In this video we will look at the consequences of this event which entered history as The Bohemian Revolt 1618-1620. This is the commonly accepted start of the Thirty Years' War 1618-1648, a war that claimed eight million lives, devasted large stretches of Europe, especially Germany and drastically transformed the political and religious map of Europe.

Thank you to Wondrium for sponsoring today's video! Signup for your FREE trial to Wondrium here: ow.ly/16lN50MESmL Let us know your thought on this series. It's more focused on the governance of the HRE, the Habsburgs and the reasons for the war. In other videos we covered the military side of things (videos on Nördlingen, Breitenfeld, Lützen). What do you prefer?
@clintmoor422
@clintmoor422 Год назад
This. A more general or holistic approach is more interesting. Tactics and strategy is fine but it won't attract as many viewers and you desperately need more viewers. Your videos are good in terms of quality but considering the effort you put in, you make way to few clicks. other channels make much more with much less effort.
Год назад
It would be great if in the future you do a series of the Italian Wars with a format similar to the one used here, since it was a conflict with many phases like the Thirty Years War, which makes it ideal; although for my part, I would prefer that you narrate the important battles as you did in this video with the Battle of White Mountain and that it is not only an account of the geopolitical sense of the conflict (that the tactical approach is not completely abandoned, while we talk about the political and strategic things).

Note the city names of Pilsen & Budweis. Pilsen is were you get the name for pilsner beer, and Budweis for Budweiser. This was the real center for European beer ! And it goes all the way to the 1860s, when Maximilian, Archduke of Austria, became the emperor of Mexico. The Austrian Empire held Bohemia, and after the Mexican's overthrew the foreign army, the executed Maximilian, but spared his brew masters. That's why Cinco de Mayo (after a battle in the revolt that overthrew Maximilian) is celebrated with beer, and why Mexico is even a major beer maker (Modelo, Dos Equis, Corona, ...)

It's worth noting that the dungpile explanation was a later invention by the protestants to counter catholic claims. There is no mention of it in any of the first-hand accounts, and the seemingly miraculous fall may rather be explained by the heavy fashion of the time, the slant of the wall bellow the window and the fact that they landed on relatively soft ground (as opposed to pavement). Still, for three men to successively survive the same 20 meter fall was a pretty rare event, and it quickly gained a mystical dimension that the protestant later worked to dispel as it is never good to let your ennemy think they might be on God's side. Especially in a religious war...

They were merely fighting for rights they had 10 years earlier, they would surely have been labelled "controlled opposition" if modern political language existed back then. It is interesting that even people as timid and unambitious as them could start a conflict that was arguably deadlier than World War 2 proportional to population, perhaps it was because of this initial timidity that the conflict was so bloody and drawn-out?

The quality steadily keeps getting better and better, the research is superb and it covers a lot of neglected themes. And since you produce this stuff for 2 years now, you can even reference your own videos, which make it perfect to dive deeper into a topic (for instance, Battle of Khotyn). As an Austrian history buff, I have learned more about Habsburg related history here than in 12 years of Austrian middle school and university. Keep it up! p.s.: Where are you based? You really get the pronounciation of many languages quite right (German for example) so I really struggle to pinpoint your accent :D

Were I to suggest a small improvement it would be to include the year you are currently talking about in one corner of the screen at all times. The video is jam-packed with meaty information and often referring to dates like 'person x arrived at location y on the 4th of August'. The title of the video is 1618-1620 and I keep wondering "are we talking about 4th of August 1618 or 1619, or are we already in 1620 now?". This would be especially helpful when you're showing the strategic army movements on the maps :) Keep up the good work.

That, and the fact that the dungpile was a later protestant invention to counter Catholic claims of divine intervention. There was no dungpile; however the heavy clothed fashion of the time and the slight slant of the wall under the window (which may have been covered in ivy, as it is nowadays), may explain in part the miraculous fall. Wether it was pure luck or divine intervention, the story is still a pretty good one.

Very interesting fact about the calvinists destroying the St. Vitus cathedral you are talking about 14:24. The main guys behind this werent actually the calvinist from palatinate, but some of the most important members of the bohemian nobility, trying to gain favor of their newly elected king. Also, Frederick V. was very unpopular even before is arival in Prague as many of the bohemian and (mostly) moravian nobles did not want him as a king. Another important fact not mentioned, Frederick knew even before accepting the bohemian crown that he would get very little international as a king of bohemia. The protestant union directly warned him off, telling him they wont support him if he does accept the crown. After accepting it, he was even removed from the league.

Imma say it again. Tercio is not a battle formation, but an administrative unit. Tercios fought in companies and were far more used to fighting asymetrical warfare and in companies and half companies formed adhoc, much like vexilationes, than huge massive and cumbersome pike blocks.

So the Ottoman Empire almost join the Thirty Years' War but ultimately decided not to because the circumstances isn't the right one at the moment. And when one of the Pashas seized one of the Hungarian cities, it was the last straw that broke the camel's back in the possibility of joining this war against the Habsburg in Germany and possibly, seize Vienna.

The bohemians noble were also negotiating with ottomans, hoping to get their support directly. One of the the nobles, who hosted the ottoman delegation in Prague, Vaclav Budovec of Budov wrote a book called Antiquran, in which he criticizes islam as a religion and urges all Christian nations to join a common fight against the Turks. Ottomans declined these attempts of course.

I'd always thought the war started with the Elector Palatine sailing up the Rhine with his young English wife. Thanks for putting into perspective how much had to happen, locally and internationally, before the Elector even got involved.

I only just learned yesterday how the queen of bohemia was Elizabeth Stuart the winter queen and daughter of Charles VI. The fact I'm only learning about this side of scottish history now is a shame. Its so such a interesting hidden part of scotlands history interacting with Europe.

Scotland had a significant impact on the war! Many Scotish regiments served in the Swedish army. The Scotish general Alexander Leslie decided the battle of Wittstock for Sweden. And there was another Leslie, named Walter, who was one of the men who assasinated Imperial generalissimo Wallenstein and later became a major military adviser to the Emperor.

@@notalecguinness3221 Thats fascinating I really want to know more about this since my last essay was about Charles V and Luther. My next essay is going to be on scots mercenaries that fought for the Swedish army actually so I got a book called swords for hire all about it looking forward to researching it.

10:14 I wonder if rejection of the terms was basedon idea that the rebels couldn't trust the agreement to be held long term. Mobilizing rebellion is very risky process, since if you don't have critical mass you get isolated and just executed. Accepting peace could have potentially allowed to Ferninand to just revoke the right when time was better for him.

How exactly did you come to the 70m drop from the window (0:40)? I don't think that that is possible, knoeing prague, 70ft maybe, I thing I read somewhere that they had fallen 15 to 20m.
