Abstract

By mid-1605 the Habsburg territories were in turmoil. Hungary was in the hands of Bocskay and his rebels, and they were invading Moravia, Bohemia was still simmering over the anti-Protestant Vladislav edict, and a confrontation was looming in Upper and Lower Austria between the Protestant nobility and the Catholic administration of Khlesl and Archduke Matthias.
