- In this Czech history documentary, we'll be taking a look at the Hussite Wars, which were a series of conflicts fought between the religiously reformed Bohemians and the buzz-kill Catholics. Learn all about Jan Zizka, Sigismund of Hungary and a time period that would've been more interesting in Kingdom Come Deliverance.

Quick note on the borders of Bohemia: At the time of the Hussite Wars, Bohemia controlled a fair amount of territory to the north in Silesia, but this never really fell under Hussite control, thus I grouped it into the borders of the HRE (which it was part of) and only included Bohemia and Moravia in the borders of Hussite Bohemia.
That P.P.P.P. don't P.L.A.Y.
heyyy history house productions, thanks to you I've been making a lot more history videos
That’s great! I’ll give them a watch!
@@HistoryHouseProductions Dude I submitted some captions for the video
That’s so awesome! Are they coming up on your end, or is this something I have to approve on my end?
The Yeeting of Prague
Oh ya, you betcha
30 years war: the second yeeting of Prague
@@marceltelang7825nazi invasion of czechoslovakia: The yeeting of czechia and prague.
@@marceltelang7825 The fact that this happened twice is both fascinating and hilarious, and that fact that there is a word for yeeting people from windows (defenestration) is unbelievable
@@a.h.s.3006 it started serious religious war twice, there are four defenestrations in total (three if you hear it from communists, because Jan Masaryk is so good at suicide, he even closed the window after he jumped)
Haha...ASMR Indulgences...you managed to make a goofy concept even stranger...Great job! Very enjoyable video :)
Thank you! I thoroughly enjoyed your video as well. Very unique topic.
History House Productions Is that a reference to the monk Johann Tetzels slogan ”As soon as a coin in the coffer rings - the soul from purgatory springs”?
Oh, and Zizka is underappreciated in history!
He was the best military ledaer od his time.
mr.breast give me money
@@Horus9123 Not just his time, he was the best general in history.
@@VRGamerczAs much as I love Žižka, he was one of the best, but not the best. In "best of best" terms, Napoleon kicks ass
Napoleon accomplished indeed bigger things, but compared to Napoleon, Žižka never lost a battle.@@-keksikcek-526
Do I detect sincere praise for a competent and innovative military strategy? Talk about off-brand!
(Wagon forts are pretty cool though)
Oops. I’ll have to go back and edit some sarcasm into that part. Good catch. ;)
Wagon forts bring me back to playing Germany in Age of Empire 3.
I forgot about that! My little brother and I used to play that all the time!
As somebody who has fought from within a wagon fort, I agree.
Some German:imma kill these guys
The Hussites: *start singing halo*
German guy:oh hell nahh
That bit of asmr will forever haunt me Connor... Great video though! And a great visual representation of defenestration. Loved taking part in this collab with you.
I had a jolly time as well! I’ve never really understood ASMR, but it makes a good meme.
Great topic, and great delivery. You edutain me.
Ooooooo! That wordplay though!
Sparked a new movement of religious revolutionaries favoring Hus' ideas who called themselves -the hussites- THE WINGED HUSSARS
I’m sure I’ll do a video on those guys at some point.
That´s Poland.
Winged hussars sounds better than boxed Hussites.
I’ve been to Prague. It was amazing to see such a pivotal piece of history where a guy got yeeted out of a window and landed in a pile of dung. Simply glorious.
That was the second one actually, for the a bit larger Thirty Years War
That was the other other defenestration caused by religious unrest and happened ~200 years after this, the people thrown out by Hussites landed in an angry mob
And it was three times actually. Well 2 times they through living people, at the second case attackers first killed the town council and then trough their bodies out of windows. 3rd time, in 1618, noble people through kings officers out of windows in Prague castle, but they survived. So I guess only 1st really counts. :D
I feel like I should point out that the past tense of yeet is actually *yote
(In all seriousness though, great video!)
I suppose I should consult a dictionary next time before I attempt meme slang. XD
he has been yeeten
Jitten, jitteten, gejittet [German]
pope: exists
hussites: I'm about to end this man's whole career
The crusades certainly didn’t help with his popularity.
@@HistoryHouseProductions well said
jokes aside, this is a very informative and educative, yet not too overbearing, simple and humorous video, a really nicely balanced one from such a small creator.
keep going!
Thank you! I certainly plan to keep this gig up for the foreseeable future.
Enjoyed this. Good work! Eastern European medieval history is so interesting. Bohemia itself is arguably an older state than Germany.
Thanks! :) I know! I think it’s interesting how it’s a bit of a mixture between Slavic and Germanic.
"easter european"
-Czech and Hungarian people : heavy breathing intensifies...
Some westerner: refers to the Czech republic as eastern Europe.
Czech bois in central Europe : REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Poles, Czechs and Hungarians : so you chose death
Czechia is Central european tho
Finally got to your video in the playlist! I love how in your sources you put *_that dream i had last week_*
An angel came to me and told me everything I needed to know.
@@HistoryHouseProductions help big fan man
since thats technically a Kingdom Come Reference here's a Manowar/Sabaton reference aswell:
SEE THE WHITE LIGHT
THE LIGHT WITHIN
YEAH, IT BURNS A FIRE.
Connor: Czech this out
Me: ok, where's the chair and rope
I got so many flashbacks from Kingdom Come Deliverance. Death to Sigismund! Hahha
I actually haven’t gotten around to playing that game yet? Would you recommend?
@@HistoryHouseProductions Definitely! It takes place after HRE Charles dies and how it introduces a problem that which his son Wenceslaus as an incompitant ruler who would rather hunt, drink, and be around women. The story comes from the perspective of a peasant with high ambition who was raided by Sigismund, the son of Charles by a different mother. The main characters town, Skallitz, has a silver mine, and the hired troops of Sigismund were the savage-like Cumans who plundered villages in order to be compensated. The game overall is fun and as a History major in college, I felled in love with it and it was a great introduction to 15th century Bohemia. The video you recorded could potentially be the storyline of a potential sequel to the game, haha. Juat be prepared to devote some 150 hours of gameplay, though it could be addictive so time flies by.
Sounds fun!
@@zakattack8624 yeah and Father Godwin the priest from Uhzitz was a Hussite, mentioning Jan Hus when you go drinking with him
@@chrisrosenkreuz23 Oh yeah, that is true! I just cared that Jan Hus was basically the proto-Protestant and thought, oh that's a cool reference (x
Congrats on the 1,000 subs man!! You deserve them so I'm really happy for you. Keep it up Connor!
Thank you so much! I’m still kinda trying to comprehend it all. That collab certainly did work wonders.
@@HistoryHouseProductions Yeah it did! And it's only going to get better. It's great that we help each other out.
6:46 *Furiously T-poses in Medieval Bathhouse*
Normie
Worth to mention that Jan Zizka participated in the battle of Grunwald with Teutonic Order on the Polish side.
Big jump in quality, loved the asmr part
*whispers* “Thank you!
Nice video. There are some simplifications, but I cannot believe you forgot to mention that in the battle of Vítkov Hill stood about 80 old men, women and children against several thousand professional knights on horses and won. Most badass battle of that war.
Yeah, I had a whole section on that in the original script, but I mentioned something similar in the previous battle, so I cut it from the final script.
Fun fact, during a lull in the hundred years war, Joan of Arc apparently got bored and wrote a threatening letter to the Hussites promising to "remove your madness and foul superstition, taking away either your heresy or your lives." She even tried to get the British to join forces with her to fight them, they never got back to her.
Huh. That’s wild
Not surprising really she was obviously a religious fanatic of course she hates people who stand against the Church.
I had to make a defenestration of Prague political cartoon for World History.
That sounds like fun!
You forgot in 1403 some important dialogue in a tavern in Uzhits with the emissary of Radzig Kobyla (Wenceslaus's trusted Lord) and a parish priest.
Inn-keeper:Hey Henry's come to see us!
Goodwin: You will preach about Jan Huss in my stead.
Henry: I'm feeling quite hungry.
Haha!
Thank you! Hahaha
I have used this channel as a secondary source in my college class. My professor was, dare I say, indifferent to my genius
It’s pretty cool to see smaller channels in on this to, good video by the way.
I agree, it’s awesome! Thank you for watching!
Everybody gangsta *until the wagons start speaking Czech*
First time watching and I Love the humor and information you provided in this video. You’ll definitely have gained more subscribers from this collaboration.
Yeah! The support I’ve been getting these last few days is crazy!
This is Kingdom Come Deliverance
I feel quite hungry....
@@theanglo-lithuanian1768 Look! Henry's come to see us.
@@ArchWillhelm Jesus christ be praised!
Great vid, thanks for producing this. Ill be waiting for more.
Thanks for watching! There’ll certainly be more in the future!
Don't forget: SIGISMUND I WAS FROM THE HOUSE OF LUXEMBOURG AAAAAA
loved this one thank you!!!
I just love how they kept calling crusades against a few 100 people
Your pronounciation of Jan Žižka was really funny, because it sounded like ,,Šiška" which means cone xd
This is very informative and educational. It'll be a nice change of pace after my total lack of charisma.
Haha! Did you forget that part when dishing out your S.P.E.C.I.A.L. points?
What do you mean?
It’s a reference to the “Fallout” video game series that has a perk system that includes charisma.
Hahaha, I never played Fallout but yes, totally ignored charisma. I never even made it outta the vault. I'm still in there, sitting on my computer.
As a Czech, I found all those Tahborritheh and Utrrakitheh very funny. Othervise, great video. As for the borders: you used borders of Bohemia proper and Moravia, which is OK. While the Lands of the Bohemian crown included other parts, like Egerland, Silesia and Lusitania, those were in a sort of personal union and were governed by the same guy (i.e. Bohemian king) under different title. And in those part of the "miniempire", maybe due to the significant number of German inhabitants, the whole Husitte never catched up, so those countries were usually treated as enemy territory. Even most parts of Moravia. Altough later a significant number of Silesian rulers (suzerains of the King of Bohemia) aligned themselves with the Hussite movement. Under threat of being destroyed, obviously.
Good information. You know a lot!
I love this type of humor 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
I’m glad you find it amusing. XD
I've watched maybe half the playlist & so far this is definitely the one that's had me giggling the most 😂
I’m glad to hear it!
I love how you care about your subscribers/viewers theres nothing better when a UA-camr responds I mean I'm happy for someone with 10 subs to respond to my comments
I’m glad you’re happy!
You have spoiled the sequel to Kingdom come: Deliverance.
Kirby has found your sin unforgivable.
I actually feel quite hungry
@@trogo3402 I could use a bite to eat..
3:55 Due to new research there was like 700 of knights at Sudomeř, which still makes Žižka victory magneficent. But I like your spirit, good video.
Your map of Bohemia looks like hoi3 romania
OMG, the ASMR!!!! LOL!!!!
Why do the Hussite Crusades sound like bad 80's action movie franchise? Hussite Crusade V - Blind General.
Ha! I’m actually a little surprised that they haven’t made a movie yet. It’d be cool!
@@HistoryHouseProductions They made it in 1956 i think and there will be another one
Yoooo shit this probably happened a while ago, but grats on 1k subscribers Connor.
It actually just happened yesterday! Thank you!
Good stuff m8
You had me at these...wait
Happy 1k subs
🎊🍾🎉 Party time! Thank you so much!
Nice. This is my favorite. If you don´t know there is old movie trilogy: Jan Hus, Jan Žiška, Proti všem (againts all) First one is about whole thing about burning Jan Hus, second is from Prague defenestration to Battle of Sudomer. And final is little later with battle of Vitkov hill being final fight. Also there is upcoming film Medieval which is sad to be about hussites. However footage of film doesn´t look hopefool at all since it seem to be authentic like Battlefield 5. For example bikers pants are very popular amongs Czech and Slovak people.
Loved the halo bit
It took me until about halfway through the video before I realized this is about the Hussites and NOT the Hessians, I kept wondering what a religious war had to do with Hessian mercenaries
That would change the context
@@HistoryHouseProductions I just had an idea for this summer's next blockbuster! "Jon Hus: Crusader For Hire"
Nice name
My friend has share this video to me
I don't even regret
Naked hipsters?? I know where I'd have been. Great video!
Hahaha! Gotta keep the beanie on though!
they were all killed by other husites as heretics though
Perfect pronunciation of "Jan Hus", good effort on the rest. "Utrakvisté" and "Táborité" could be transformed into "Utraquists" (as from "sub utraque", "under both", since they took both bread AND wine during masses) and "Taborites" (or even Campers, since "tábor" means "camp").
Ahhhhhh. Thank you! This is interesting stuff.
very cool
Didn’t the Hussites also spend like 10 years trying to convince Władysław Jagiełło to claim the throne too?
Indeed they did
So this is one of the background story of kingdom come: deliverence, quiet complicated i see
Cool fact: When Jan Zizka died, the Hussites made a war drum from his skin. pretty metal, huh?
My God, Zizka was one of the greatest generals of his time.
Indeed he was.
@@HistoryHouseProductions The dude kinda/sorta invented armored vehicles. Holy crap.
It’s pretty cool.
Žižka never lost a battle. In history was only few generals who never lost a battle .
Jan Shiska's death. He didn't see that one coming.
*badum tsssssss*
Who’s here after EU4’s Emperor DLC.
Me
First minute, already subscribed
Thank you!
4:16 So basically it was the medieval version of Portland.
Honestly? The Second-Fourth Crusade should've been like that Jack Rackam video on Pompey - the screams in the Battle of Pharsalus.
Kingdom come deliverance vibes
I feel quite hungry..
czech them out at the end got me.
damn you.
but in all seriousness the hussites had polish energy. win overwhelming odds but die anyway.
Haha
@@HistoryHouseProductions props for interacting with a comment on a video more than a year old. cheers!
learning through the medium of mirth
Gotta love that alliteration.
@@HistoryHouseProductions thank you
@@HistoryHouseProductions thank you
@@HistoryHouseProductions thank you
You’re welcome, you’re welcome, you’re welcome. :)
What is it with these types of wars, and chucking guys out the window to start them off.
Wait, sigismund is the king of hungary, bohemia and poland who died in a battle against the ottomans, isnt he?
Did they have Hussars?
kingdom come deliverance be like DAMNNNNN
Great, now I got to go listen to Halos theme song
THEN THE WINGED HUSSITES ARRIVED!!!
was jan hus as "handsome" according to woman as kingdom come deliverance says? also the halo part was the best!
Haha! He looks pretty normal to me!
The ASMR part 😂
Catholic Knight:Come on you can do this.You trained your entire life for this.
Hussite:(Starts singing Halo theme song while comrades morph into Master Chief)
Catholic Knight:Nope I am done.(retreats)
I think that in this time Silesia and Lusatia was part of Lands of the Bohemian Crown, but I'm not sure.
Check the pinned comment.
@@HistoryHouseProductions Oh, sorry I'm blind.
@@HistoryHouseProductions Moravia actually also didn't fell into controll of Hussites. It was only Bohemia.
Haha! No worries.
Can we get this guy a Spotify asmr account?
For a million dollars
“Wagenburg”
Lol
Is this the kingdom come delivarance war
No, Kingdom Come happens a few years earlier.
Asmr in middle ages: *pops bubbles on human*
For the Taborites! Sad these guys are underrated.
So this is the first time Bohemians threw representatives out a window. At least this time they didn't cause a nearly 30 year long war,that was the second time. This time they caused a war that lasted about 15 years. I find that interesting.
100subs away from 1k!👊
Indeed. Thanks for sticking with me for so long! :)
@@HistoryHouseProductions what can i say good content
There's a manga about the Hussite Wars called Otome Sensō but be warned there's a lot gore and sexual violence especially with younger girls.
That’s an interesting premise
0:22
This a part of the 30 years war?
Nah. This was before
@@HistoryHouseProductions ui
You didn't use defenestration, you hade the opportunity to say defenestration, and you didn't!!!
More Czechia :333
Finally gets all the land to form a de jure empire....dies
Sounds like my CK2 experience in a nutshell :,(
'Šíška'
Indubitably
But that means pine cone
It's žižka
tell the best weapon of history wrong is the gregorian singing
That asmr thou 😂😂😂😂
I subbed at the Czech pun*
Noice
History House Productions thanks cartoon history boi
Wasn’t a fan of how you said king of Germany when Germany wasn’t even a thing an Germany was never had a king . I don’t think that’s nitpicking because want was he, the king of hre which included states outside of Germany?
I believe that his official title was “king of Germany.” It didn’t make a whole lot of sense to me either, but medieval kings stay flexing
@History House Productions oh ok that’s odd but my b ! Enjoy the content
tabor = camp
Hus = husa = goose
6:40 is why I love JESUS
Btw, Tábor literally means "Camp" lmao
6:45 me and the boys at the school toilets
Oh your humor. Cool project, but what do I do now with all this (some would say useless) knowledge 😉
Who knows
