I hadn't known there had been any defenstration earlier than that.
Kuci, your lack of education is appalling.
From Latin 'fenestra' = 'window'Comment

I knew what defenestration was, I'm just not sure how you can do it to a city.Comment

I think some Catholic dude threw some Protestant dude out of a window in Prague, so the Protestants got pissed off and rioted. Or maybe the Protestants did the throwing.THEY!!111 OMG WTF LOL LET DA NOMADS AND TEH S3D3NTARY PEOPLA BOTH MAEK BITER AXP3REINCES

It was estates representatives (Protestant) throwing off the emissary of the Habsburg throne pretendent (catholic) because normally the estates of Bohemia elected their own king but this one was appointed by the emperor.
So it was a matter of regional autonomy in the first place. Turned into a confessional conflict in the next step, and in the last step when France (catholic) joined on the Protestant side it turned into a great power struggle that makes modern theorists of political realism wet their pants.Comment

Truthfully that is how I see all of you, even if we disagree on a few things. I think part of it is having seen the other side of things.
