Wenceslas IV – The Bloody Hungarian Throne

After his father's death, Wenceslas of Luxembourg is looking after his siblings. He has married his sister Anne to King Richard II of England and betrothed his brother Sigismund to Mary, the heiress to the Polish kingdom. However, following the sudden death of Louis of Anjou, King of Poland and Hungary, Sigismund's future is threatened by the intrigues of the Hungarian queen dowager. The Polish nobility refuse to accept Sigismund as their king and his engagement to Mary is broken off. In his support, the Luxembourgs—Wenceslas, Prokop and Jobst—march their armies into Hungary. Will they manage to secure at least the Hungarian throne for Sigismund? At the same time, the King is dealing with many other problems: the coexistence of two popes, unrest in the Holy Roman Empire, a volatile situation in the south of Bohemia where the Rosenbergs have launched a campaign against the Duke of Austria, and, as if that were not enough, robbers have appeared near Kutná Hora…
