Agnes of BOHEMIA was born in 1211 in Prague. She died in Mar 1282 in Prague. Saint Agnes of Bohemia (or Agnes of Prague) was the first saint from a Central European country to be canonized by Pope John Paul II before the 1989 Velvet Revolution. She was canonized on November 12, 1989, in Rome. Agnes was born in Prague in 1211, dying there in March 1282.

Agnes was the daughter of Bohemian king Premysl Otakar I and Constance of Hungary, the sister of King Andrew II of Hungary. She was entrusted to the Cistercian order at Trzebnica to be educated at the age of three, returning to Prague at the age of 6 for further education.

Agnes appears on the 50-koruna Czech banknoteIn 1220, she was engaged to Henry, son of Frederick II, Holy Roman Emperor, and went to live at his court in Vienna. She remained there until 1225, when she broke off her engagement to return to Prague. Like other noble women of her time, Agnes was a valuable pawn in the marriage game. In 1226 her father Otakar went to war against Frederick II as a result of her broken engagement to the latter's son, Henry II. Otakar then planned for her to marry Henry III of England, but this was vetoed by the Emperor.

Agnes then decided to devote her life to religious works, and with the help of Pope Gregory IX, she was eventually given the freedom to devote herself entirely to God. She became a member of the Poor Clares, a religious order founded by Clare of Assisi on Franciscan principles. Using her own assets, she founded the hospital of St. Francis (ca. 1232-33) and her own abbey, built in the Gothic architecture style for which Prague is famous. She is the patron saint of Bohemia.

Spouse: Margrave Henry III of MEISSEN. Margrave Henry III of MEISSEN and Agnes of BOHEMIA were married Unknown in unknown.


Anne of BOHEMIA was born in 1366. She died in 1394. Parents: Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV and Elizabeth of POMERANIA.


Duke Boleslav I of BOHEMIA was born before 925 in unknown. He died between 967 and 15 Jul 972 in unknown. Boleslaus I the Cruel (Czech: Boleslav I. Ukrutný) (died July 15, 972 (or 967)), was the Duke of Bohemia from 935 to 972 (or 929 - 967).

His father was Vratislav I of Bohemia, Duke of Bohemia. Boleslav I had a son named Boleslav II the Pious of Bohemia, Duke of Bohemia, and a daughter named Dobrava / Dubrawka of Bohemia. He had two other children, Mlada and Strachkvas (Christian).

Way to the throne
Boleslav is notorious for the murder of his brother St. Wenceslaus, the result of which brought him to the Czech (ducal) throne. Wenceslaus was murdered during a feast, and precisely that time Boleslav's son was born. He got a strange name "Strachkvas", what meant "a dreadful feast". Being remorseful of what had happened, Boleslav promised to devote his son to religion and educate him as a clergyman, and kept his word.

Policy
Despite the fratricide, Boleslav is generally respected by Czech historians as an energetic ruler. Citing Wenceslas' religious policies as the cause of Boleslav's fratricide seems unlikely as Boleslav in no way impeded the growth of Christianity in Bohemia, and in fact he actually sent his daughter Mlada (a nun) to Rome to ask permission to make Prague a bishopric.

One major policy shift after the death of Wenceslas was regarding Czech-German relations. It is usually asserted that Wenceslas was an obedient client of the German King Henry the Fowler. Boleslav on the other hand, found himself almost immediately at war with Henry's successor Otto I the Great. This conflict, presumably consisting of border raids between Boleslav on one side and the Margrave of the Ostmark on the other (the general pattern of warfare in this region at the time) reached its conclusion in 950 when Boleslav signed a peace with Otto. It cannot be said for certain if Boleslav became a vassal of the German King, but it is known that he led a Czech force in alliance with Otto at the great victory over the Magyars at the Lech river (August 10, 955). He had also helped Otto to crush an uprising of Slavs on the Lower Elbe in 953.

Czech historians also claim that Boleslav expanded his power into Silesia, Lusatia and Moravia, but no dates are given for these alleged conquests. If they did occur, they must have been only transistory gains because Boleslav's successors had to conquer them all over again. Boleslav realised the growth of Polish strength to the north of his borders and he accordingly arranged for his daughter Dobrava to marry the Piast prince Mieszko I in 965.

Parents: Duke Vratislaus I of BOHEMIA and Drahomíra.

Spouse: Edgiva. Duke Boleslav I of BOHEMIA and Edgiva were married Unknown in unknown. Children were: Dubrawka, Boleslav II the PIOUS.


Duke Boleslaw I the Brave of BOHEMIA was born between 966 and 967 in Poznan. He died on 17 Jun 1025 in Poznan. He was buried in Cathedral Basilica of St. Peter and St. Paul, Poznan, Poland. Boleslaw I the Brave (Polish: Boleslaw I Chrobry; 966 or 967 - June 17, 1025), of the Piast Dynasty, son of Mieszko I and of his first wife, the Bohemian princess Dobrawa ? ruled as Duke of Poland, 992-1025, and as King of Poland in 1025.

Biography
In 984 Boleslaw married Rikdaga, daughter of Riddag (Rikdag, Ricdag), margrave of Meissen. Subsequently he married Judith, daughter of Geza, Grand Duke of Hungary; then Enmilda, daughter of Dobromir, Duke of Lusatia; and lastly Oda, another daughter of the margrave of Meissen. His wives bore him sons, including Bezprym, Mieszko II and Otton; and a daughter, Mathilde. After his father's death around 992, Boleslaw was able to expel his father's second wife, Oda, and her sons, and unite the country again.

In 997 Boleslaw sent Saint Adalbert of Prague to Prussia, on the Baltic Sea, on a mission to convert the heathen Prussians to Christianity ? an attempt that would end in Adalbert's martyrdom and subsequent canonization.

"Coronation of the First King of Poland," by Jan Matejko, 1889, oil on canvas, Royal Castle, Warsaw.By this time, Boleslaw already possessed Silesia and Pomerania (with its chief city, Gdansk) and Lesser Poland (with its chief city, Kraków). In 999 Boleslaw annexed present-day Moravia, and in 1000 or 1001, parts of present-day Slovakia.

In 1000, Emperor Otto III, while on pilgrimage to the tomb of St. Adalbert at Gniezno, invested Boleslaw with the title Frater et Cooperator Imperii ("Brother and Partner in the Empire"). Some historians state that the Emperor also pledged a royal crown to Boleslaw. During that same visit, Otto III accepted Gniezno's status as an archbishopric (see Congress of Gniezno).

After the untimely death of Otto III at age 22 in 1002, Boleslaw conquered Meißen and Lusatia, wresting imperial territory for himself during the disputes over succession to the Imperial throne. He and his father had earlier backed Henry the Wrangler against Otto, and Boleslaw now accepted the accession, as Emperor, of Henry II, son of the earlier Henry.

Boleslaw conquered, and made himself Duke of, Bohemia and Moravia in 1003 - 1004, ruling as Boleslav IV.

At the request of his son-in-law Sviatopolk I of Kiev, the Polish duke intervened in Kievan affairs: not only did he expel Yaroslav the Wise from Kiev, but possibly he deployed his troops in Rus' capital for about half a year (see Kiev Expedition). It was during this campaign that Boleslaw annexed the Red Strongholds, later called Red Ruthenia.

The intermittent wars with the Holy Roman Empire ended with the Peace of Bautzen (Budziszyn) in 1018, which left Sorbian Meissen and Lusatia in Polish hands.

Emperor Henry II obliged Boleslaw to pledge his fealty again in exchange for the lands that he held in fief. After Henry's death in 1024, Boleslaw crowned himself king (1025), thus raising Poland to the rank of a kingdom.

Boleslaw sent an army to aid his friend (more probably, nephew) Canute in his conquest of England.

Boleslaw's son, Mieszko II, crowned himself king immediately upon his father's death.

Significance of Boleslaw's reign in Polish history

Polish 20-zloty banknote with image of Boleslaw the Brave.Boleslaw was the first Polish king, since it was during his reign that Poland became a kingdom, despite the fact that some Polish rulers before 1295 would never receive a crown. He was the first Polish ruler baptised at birth, the first real Christian ruler of Poland. He founded the independent Polish province of the Church and made Poland a strong power in Europe. Boleslaw for the first time unified all the provinces that subsequently came to comprise the traditional territory of Poland: Greater Poland, Lesser Poland, Masovia, Silesia and Pomerania

He was a national hero to the Sorbs of Lusatia.

Duke Borivoj I of BOHEMIA was born before 870 in unknown. He died Unknown in unknown. Borivoj I was Duke of Bohemia (852/853 - 888/889).

The head of the Premyslid Czechs who dominated the environs of Prague, Borivoj in c. 870 declared himself kní?e (later translated by German scholars as 'Duke') of the Czechs (Bohemians). Borivoj was recognised as such by his overlord Svatopluk I of Great Moravia around 872 who dispatched Bishop Methodius to begin the conversion of the Czechs to Christianity. Borivoj and his wife Saint Ludmila were baptised by Methodius in 874 and the latter especially became an enthusiastic evangelist, although the religion failed to take root among Borivoj's subjects.

Around 883 Borivoj was deposed by a revolt in support of his kinsman Strojmir, and restored only with the support of Svatopluk of Moravia.

As with most of the early Bohemian rulers, Borivoj is a shadowy figure and exact dates and facts for his reign can never be considered as completely reliable, although several major fortifications and religious foundations are said to have dated from this time. In old Czech legends he is said to be son of a prince of Bohemians called Hostivít.

Spouse: Ludmila. Children were: Duke Vratislaus I of BOHEMIA, Spytihnev I of BOHEMIA.


Elisabeth II of BOHEMIA was born in 1409 in unknown. She died on 25 Dec 1442 in unknown. Empress and Queen Elisabeth (1409 - 25 December 1442) was the only daughter of Sigismund, Holy Roman Emperor, king of Bohemia and Hungary, by his second wife Barbara of Celje. Her father was the last Luxemburg on the Imperial Throne

Family and claims to thrones
Elisabeth was not the daughter of Sigismund's first wife Mary of Hungary, and thus not descended from Angevin kings of Hungary (but in many ways, she descended from the old Arpád kings of Hungary.)

Her paternal grandparents were Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor and Elisabeth of Pomerania. Her maternal grandfather was Count Herman II of Celje, whose parents were the Slovenian ruler Count Herman I of Celje and Catherine of Bosnia (who apparently descended also from Nemanjic kings of Serbia and from Catherine of Hungary, a daughter of Stephen V of Hungary). In right of the paternal grandparents, she was, through Emperor Charles, a heiress of Bohemia, and through Elisabeth of Pomerania, a heiress of Poland, of its Kujavian Piast branch of kings. Thus, she was a leading claimant to several Slavic kingdoms and principalities.

She was also a descendant of Arpads of Hungary, through her great-grandmother Elisabeth I of Bohemia, who herself was granddaughter of Kunguta Rostislavna of Halicia, whose mother Anna was a daughter of King Bela IV of Hungary. Admittedly, this was not a very close Hungarian connection, but all the other extant descendants of Arpads were approximately as distant at that time. Additionally, she descended from Ottokar I of Bohemia's second wife Constance of Hungary, daughter of Bela III of Hungary.

Marriage
In 1422, Elisabeth married Archduke Albrecht of Austria, who then after her father became Emperor Albert II and King of Bohemia and Hungary. She was thus Holy Roman Empress, and Queen of Bohemia and Hungary.

She died two years after her husband, leaving her children minors. Her mother Barbara survived her.

Her only son Ladislas V the Posthumous of Austria, king of Bohemia and Hungary (born 1440) died a teenager without issue, leaving the remaining kingdoms of the family to be succeeded by elected rulers.

Her daughters Anna, Duchess of Thuringia (1432-1462) and Elisabeth, Queen of Poland (1437-1505) continued the family which afterwards regained some of these kingdoms.

Genetics
Elisabeth of Bohemia is a direct matrilineal ancestor of Nicholas II of Russia. Provided the genealogy is correct, this implies that she and all her matrilineal relatives are members of mitochondrial haplogroup Haplogroup T.

King Frederick V of BOHEMIA was born on 16 Aug 1596 in Jagdschloss (Hunting Lodge) Deinschwang near Amberg in the Upper Palatinate. He died on 29 Nov 1632 in Mainz. Frederick V (German: Friedrich V.) (August 16, 1596 - November 29, 1632) was Elector Palatine (1610-23), and, as Frederick I (Czech: Friedrich Falcký), King of Bohemia (1619-20). He was the son and heir of Frederick IV and of Louise Juliana von Orange-Nassau, the daughter of William I of Orange and Charlotte de Bourbon-Monpensier.

Frederick V, Elector PalatineBorn at Jagdschloss (Hunting Lodge) Deinschwang near Amberg in the Upper Palatinate, Frederick V succeeded his father as Elector of the Rhenish Palatinate in the Holy Roman Empire in 1610. In 1619 the Protestant estates of Bohemia rebelled against the Roman Catholic Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand II and offered the crown of Bohemia to Frederick, selecting him since he was an influential member of the Protestant Union, an organization founded by his father for the protection of Protestants in the Empire.

Frederick duly accepted the crown, but his allies in the Protestant Union failed to support him militarily. His brief reign as King of Bohemia ended with his defeat at the Battle of White Mountain on November 8, 1620?a year and four days after his coronation. This earned him the derisive nickname of 'the Winter King'. After this battle, the Imperial forces invaded Frederick's Palatinate lands and he had flee to Holland in 1622. An Imperial edict formally deprived him of the Palatinate in 1623. He lived the rest of his life in exile with his wife and family, mostly at the Hague, before passing away in Mainz in 1632.

Count of Luxemburg and King John I of BOHEMIA was born on 10 Aug 1296 in unknown. He died on 26 Aug 1346 in Battle of Crécy. John the Blind of Luxemburg (German: Johann der Blinde von Luxemburg; Czech: Jan Lucemburský) (10 August 1296 - 26 August 1346) was King of Bohemia and Count of Luxemburg.

Life
He was the eldest son of the Holy Roman Emperor Henry VII of Luxembourg and his wife Margaret of Brabant.

In 1310 John married Elizabeth of Bohemia and thereby became king of Bohemia and so one of the seven electors of the Holy Roman Empire. He retained his crown even after her death in 1330. He then married Beatrix, daughter of Louis I, Duke of Bourbon.

Death
He was killed fighting (though blind) alongside the French against the English at the Battle of Crecy, during which he was strapped to two other knights. He was succeeded as king of Bohemia by his eldest son Charles (later Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor).

His personal crest (three white ostrich feathers) and motto "Ich Dien" (I Serve) was then seized by Edward, the Black Prince and since then it is used by Prince of Wales.

Family and children
He was married two times. First, with Elizabeth of Bohemia. In this marriage he had the following children:

Margaret (8 July 1313-11 July 1341, Prague), married in Straubing 12 August 1328 to Henry XIV, Duke of Bavaria.
Bonne (21 May 1315-11 September 1349, Maubuisson), married in Melun 6 August 1332 to King John II of France.

Spouse: Elizabeth of BOHEMIA. Count of Luxemburg and King John I of BOHEMIA and Elizabeth of BOHEMIA were married in 1310 in unknown. Children were: Margaret, Bonne, Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV, Prince Otakar of BOHEMIA, Margrave Jan Jindrich of MORAVIA, Anna, Elizabeth.

Spouse: Duke Louis I Wittelsbach of BAVARIA. Duke Louis I Wittelsbach of BAVARIA and Ludmila of BOHEMIA were married Unknown in unknown. Children were: Duke Otto II Wittelsbach of BAVARIA.


King Otakar II of BOHEMIA was born about 1231 in unknown. He died on 26 Aug 1278 in Battle of Dürnkrut and Jedenspeigen. Otakar II (also spelled Ottokar or Premysl Otakar/Ottokar) (c. 1230 - August 26, 1278) was a king of Bohemia (1253-1278). He was the second son of King Wenceslaus I of the Premyslid dynasty, and through his mother, Kunigunde, was related to the Hohenstaufen family, being a grandson of the German king, Philip of Swabia. After the death of his older brother Vladislav in 1247 he became the only heir to the throne.

During his father's lifetime he ruled Moravia, but when in 1248 some discontented Bohemian nobles acknowledged him as their sovereign, trouble arose between him and his father, and for a short time Otakar was imprisoned. However, in 1251 the young prince secured his election as duke of Austria, where he strengthened his position by marrying the 30 years older Margaret (d. 1267), sister of Duke Frederick II, the last of the Babenberg rulers of the duchy and widow of the German king, Henry VII. Some years later he repudiated this lady and married the young Kunigunde, who was the granddaughter of his rival, the Hungarian king Bela IV. She became the mother of his children, the youngest of them being his only legitimate son Wenceslaus (Vaclav).

Both before and after he became king of Bohemia in succession to his father in September 1253 Otakar was involved in a dispute with Bela IV, king of Hungary, over the possession of Styria, which duchy had formerly been united with Austria. By an arrangement made in 1254 he surrendered part of it to Bela, but when the dispute was renewed he defeated the Hungarians in July 1260 near Kressenbrunn and secured the whole of Styria for himself, owing his formal investiture with Austria and Styria to the German king, Richard, Earl of Cornwall.

The Czech king also led two expeditions (crusades) against the Prussians and founded Königsberg (Czech: Královec), later capital of Prussia, named upon him.

In 1269 he inherited Carinthia and part of Carniola, and having made good his claim, contested by the Hungarians, on the field of battle, he was the most powerful prince within empire when an election for the German throne took place in 1273. But Otakar was not the successful candidate. He refused to acknowledge his victorious rival, Rudolph of Habsburg, and urged the pope to adopt a similar attitude. Meanwhile, at a convention of the Reichstag at Frankfurt in 1274, Rudolph decreed that all imperial lands seized since the death of Emperor Frederick II must be returned to the crown. This would have deprived Otakar of Styria, Austria, and Carinthia. Matters reached a climax in 1276. Placing Otakar under the ban of the empire, Rudolph besieged Vienna and compelled Otakar in November 1276 to sign a treaty by which he gave up Austria and the neighbouring duchies, retaining for himself only Bohemia and Moravia. Otakar's son Wenceslaus was betrothed to Rudolph's daughter Judith, and an uneasy peace was made. Two years later the Czech king tried to recover his lost lands. He found allies and collected a large army, but he was defeated by Rudolph and killed at the Battle of Dürnkrut and Jedenspeigen on the March on August 26, 1278.

Ottokar was a founder of towns and a friend of law and order, while he assisted trade and welcomed German immigrants. He is a famous figure both in history and in legend. He was called the "Iron and Gold King" throughout Europe and Dante described him in the Divine Comedy as one of the greatest contemporaries. He is also the protagonist of a tragedy by the 19th century playwright Franz Grillparzer. His son and successor was Wenceslaus II.

Vratislav had two sons, Václav and Boleslav. The Chronicle of Fulda reports that in 900 the Bavarians attacked Moravia in alliance with the Bohemians. Vratislav died (possibly in 919, although 921 is more often conjectured) in battle against the Magyars.

King Wenceslaus II of BOHEMIA was born on 17 Sep 1271 in unknown. He died on 21 Jun 1305 in unknown. Wenceslaus II Premyslid (Czech: Václav II; Polish: Waclaw II Czeski; September 17, 1271 - June 21, 1305) was King of Bohemia (1278 - 1305), Duke of Kraków (1291 - 1305), King of Poland (1300 - 1305).

Václav II was the son of Ottokar II "the Great," King of Bohemia, and Kunegunda, daughter of Rostislav, Grand Duke of Kyiv. Václav's father died in battle August 26, 1278, shortly before Václav's seventh birthday.

Václav's early reign was tainted with abuses of power by his regent, Otto, Margrave of Brandenburg, and later by his mother's secret husband, Zavis of Falckenstein.

On January 24, 1285, Václav married Judith (Jutta) von Habsburg, daughter of Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf I. In 1290 Václav had Zavis beheaded and began ruling independently.
