  • Lollardy

Answer

The Hussite Wars, a religious and political conflict that unfolded in Bohemia during the early 15th century, posed significant challenges for Sigismund, the Holy Roman Emperor and King of Hungary. This movement, fueled by the teachings of the reformist preacher Jan Hus, sought religious autonomy from the Roman Catholic Church and sparked a conflict that transcended theological differences to encompass political aspirations and social grievances.
