Well, the only difference would be the name and capital. Quite possibly it would mean Vienna would be the medieval looking city and Prague would be the baroque looking one. Also, Bohemia was still more powerfull than Austria till the Battle of the White mountain. Moravian march didn't change a lot.

Fucking Cumens.

As for people not knowing: i had to read "König Ottokars Glück und Ende" by Franz Grillparzer. Which is a very old theater piece that would today be called "based on historical events!" This made me look up what really happend.(in books back then) So i didn't learn it detailed in History but in my german language class.

SPOLER, I WAS WATCHING AN AD AND DECIDED TO LOOK AT THE COMMENTS

Battle in Kosovo

It would have been an interesting world, with Premysl dynasty, not the Habsburg one, becoming the political leaders. Note that Charles IV, who turned Prague into beautiful political and educational centre of the Empire was half Premysl himself. Reformation would have come much sooner I think.

@@petrmaly9087 Well, Habsburgs have Premyslid blood, thanks to marriges.

Same, I was like "Yeah Ottokar, kick Rudolph's ass, this is your fucking game" and then when the routing began everything came crashing down. Even before they showed the icon, I knew Ottokar wasn't making it out alive.

And then the new kaiser wanted to revoke his titles, forcing him in a war against the tyranny of the kaiser and got killed in battle. Classic CK2 :D

Get him self killed during a battle that you were soundly winning so you lose a war and now have to play a child

very accurate

Dayvit78 Gotta love medieval hypocrisy.

Why not? Infantry is slow compared to cavalry. If you want to keep that advantage infantry might be a liability. Back then, infantry was also less well trained. Someone had to guard the camp (which is a bit easier than attacking thousands of trained knights). When facing trained knights they would face horrible casualties.

The Habsburgs are the biggest joke in European history lol

was it really a surprise he was going to lose? The moment the name habsburg fell, you know ottokar is done for.

@Stavros S. Winning was a dick move from Rudolf? The reason Rudolf got elected as Holy Roman Emperor in the first place was because Ottokar not only held the only official kingdom within the empire (Bohemia) but also two medium sized duchies in Austria and Styria. Ottokar got too powerful too quickly and Rudolf defeated him to restore the balance of power within the empire.

Nah man fuck Ottokar, he seemed like a bit of a bastard.

@@TheIIDarkshadowII Yeah this Rudolf guy totally won't have his habsburg sons' dynasty break the balance

Actually if Ottokar took in charge we would have big German States and Germany likely would of united as one cohesive country much earlier

@fug :D oh we don't talk about that other guy...

To be honest since the death of Charlemagne every single german emperor has been weak to some degree (even the most powerful of them all, Charles Quint, still had troubles managing the whole thing despite being the ruler of half of Europe, there was never something equivalent to the absolutism you could find in France or Russia where the regime was centralized). The goal of the structure was more to keep a balance between duchies and little kingdoms in central Europe and occasionally contain a neighbor (mostly France). In the meantime by the late 1400s England and France were already done with this feudal organization and had created the proto-modern state. France slowly ate the HRE for 1000 years (beginning after Charlemagne), only after Napoléon disbanded the HRE the germans (under prussian banner) finally unified and completely reverse the military dynamic with the french but by that time Europe was already in decline and Russia/USA were on the rise.

this have actually happened many times throughout history and it was how Putin got to power

@@Okxyd Didn't the Holy Roman Empire disband itself to keep Napoleon from getting the title of "Holy Roman Emperor?"

fug :D Actually they did wreck the ottomans. Austria and the other powers also forced them to let Greece, Serbia and Bulgaria free, and then kept the empire around so as to halt Russian expansion. Metternich was the architect of Europe for decades.

Yes, but the exacerbated concept of "élan" or the lack of "battle spirit" that would develop in direct relation to the cavalry charges of the medieval era would eventually produce the carnage and death of a whole generation of Europeans in the First World War .

Either that or "not a chivalrous move". Conclusion - fight dirty?

Well.. that and when the commanders fucked up so badly you can see the slaughter dildo coming your way. Better go home and delete my browser history : /

Sometimes too the rout is just the aftermath of a battle deciding move.if at that point you think you've lost,there no point staying for the slaughter

Das leben ist ein wurfelspiel

I was thinking of the same game!

Btw he wasnt IV at all... IV. he was at Roman throne as Charles (in early life he was Wenceslavs, in czech Václav, after christening he became Charles at honour of his uncle Charles IV the Fair, king of French throne), so in Lands of Czech Crown he was Charles I., if he wouldnt renamed he would be Wenceslavs IV. (Václav IV.), later that was name of his succesor (and son)

Funny enough, both Rudolf and Ottokar were Charles IV's great-grandfathers

IMfromNYCity I hopes u all get this reference (clears throat) “You have more than one great grandfather Charles... Otakar was your FATHER’s grandfather... your MOTHER’s grandfather, was Rudolf of Habsburg.” Yes I know that technically considering succession laws it should be the other way round but it fits the reference better this way 😜

It's the same timeline you inbr3d Hapsburg

Otakar had huge reserves, but they were bribed and left the battlefield

Yeah, it's a totally different scenario when you're talking about commanding human lives vs. pixels on a screen. The pixels just perform actions and react in the way their programming tells them, but humans make specific choices because it's *their* life at stake and there's no respawn in irl.

The city itself was formed in 1420 by the Hussites, it was something like "holy" land for them. It was inhabited by many great warriors at that time. Still one my favourite parts of our history.

@@Higher_Will Original last name was Riba, or Ryba, not sure of correct spelling

@@jeanfish7 Oh Ryba should be correct. Ryba = Fish in Czech. I'd say that's a typical old Czech name.

Otokar had to make sure there was no chance of noble uprising/civil war in his core lands(Bohemia, Moravia). He wasnt ready at first as his power wasnt consolidated enough in the new teritories. It took him two years to get ready as mentioned and although with less resources his chances were higher then...

the uprising was not a coincidence. Rudolf planned it. I do not know why he did not mention it there

Correct. It appears that Rudolph managed to bribe or otherwise convince several nobles to abandon Ottokar.

Záviš of Falkenstein specifically. He kept suspiciously good relations with Rudolf when he served as a de facto ruler of Czech lands after death of Ottokar II. It's not proven but it seems plausible that he was in league with Rudolf even earlier. Strong crown means weaker nobles which the nobles understandably disliked.
