In those days, the concept of nationality didn't really exist. You were either loyal to your feudal lord or you just did it for the money.
Thanks for the link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defenestrations_of_Prague
Love going down wiki rabit holes.
Something cool I discovered in my rabit hole.
"Hussites flocked to Tábor from all over Bohemia. Economically supported by Tábor's control of local gold mines, the citizens joined the local peasants in developing an intentionally communal living. Taborites announced the Millennium of Christ, and declared that there would be no more servants or masters, that all property would be held in common, and that there would be no more taxation.[2] They promised that people would return to a state of pristine innocence. Some historians have found parallels to modern nationalist revolutionary movements.[3] Additionally, Murray Bookchin argued that Tábor was an early example of anarcho-communism.[4]"
Finally, after twenty years, the power of the Taborites was broken with the Battle of Lipany on 30 May 1434, during which 13,000 of the 18,000-strong army of Taborites and Sirotci, led by Prokop Holý, were overwhelmingly defeated by the united Catholic forces. Under the weight of this defeat, the Sirotci's union completely disappeared. Many of the leading Taborite commanders fell in battle, including the leading priest Prokop Holý.
Jan Roháč and his faithful fortified at his castle Zion, which was soon conquered and all the surviving defenders were hanged in the Old Town Square of Prague.
