The Death of Ladislaus Postumus

---

Ladislaus Postumus, our beloved king, has died suddenly in suspicious circumstances. Allegations of wrongdoing seem all the more likely since he was poised to unite Austria and Hungary under his rule, subjecting Hungary to foreign domination. Already the nobility are moving to replace him with their favorite, Mátyás Hunyadi, the son of the great Voivode János Hunyadi - thus breaking the Habsburg line of succession to the Hungarian throne. However, others favor maintaining our good relationship with the Habsburgs and argue that [HAB.Monarch.GetTitle] [HAB.Monarch.GetName] of Austria should be Ladislaus' rightful successor.

The Reforms of Mattias Corvinus

Hungarian Peasant Revolt

---

A plan to assemble an army for a future crusade against the Ottoman Empire has backfired badly. The task to recruit and train the troops was given to György Dózsa, an experienced veteran from wars against the Turks, but also a soldier of fortune with questionable loyalties. Dózsa proceeded to train and equip a huge army drawing from some of the poorest and most disenfranchised parts of Hungarian society.
With weapons in hand and a bit of training these peasants, students and country priests have turned out to be a lot more eager to turn on their masters than to march against the Turks and one of the biggest peasant rebellions in the history of our kingdom is now in full swing. Manors are being burned and plundered, clergymen have been impaled and government officials tortured to death.

Banditry in Upper Hungary

---

In the wake of the Crusade for Varna, the Hussite wars internal struggles of Hungary in the 1430’s and 1440’s a great number of highly skilled mercenaries have found themselves to be idle and unemployed. Unable to earn their living in any other way these men have elected to make their own fortune through banditry and pillaging. In some cases local nobles have joined the troublemakers and seem to have hope of using these soldiers to create a stronger power base for themselves.

The Army of [Root.Monarch.GetName] [Root.Monarch.Dynasty.GetName]

---

With strong neighbors on all sides the Hungarian Kingdom has often had a need for a strong army. In wars past our nobles have supplied most of our armed forces with mercenary bands hired to complement their forces.
Soldiers by occupation, these mercenaries are often quick to adopt new weapons and tactics and will generally have training that few levies can compete with. Some have now served us for years and in times of peace turn to banditry to make a living. Inspired by the writings of Julius Caesar, [Root.Monarch.GetTitle] [Root.Monarch.GetName] has begun to entertain the idea of a permanent mercenary force. Providing a permanent source of income for soldiers would undoubtedly deter them from banditry and could give us a force of unparalleled strength. At least if our our finances can support it...

The Key of Hungary

---

[belgrade_localized.GetName]'s position on the confluence of the Danube and its tributary, the Sava, makes it an ideal defensive position and a primary objective for anyone invading our country from the south. For this reason previous kings acquired the Banate of [belgrade_localized.GetName] from the Serbian Despot Durad Brankovic. The fortress itself, however grand, is in dire need of repair and upgrade.
Unfortunately the Hungarian nobility is currently unwilling to contribute to the maintenance of the fortress in [belgrade_localized.GetName], or any of the other border forts of our kingdom. They are unable to see the [threat_to_hungary.GetAdjective] threat and say this would weaken them and invite the crown to infringe on their rights.

Synod of [debrecen province.GetName]

---

Ever since the Reformed thinkers of [reformed_origin.GetCapitalName] began to spread their religious ideas they have had a strong following in our kingdom. Reformed ideas such as predestination have struck home among noble and commoner alike and Reformed schools and colleges have begun to crop up in many of our provinces. With the hesitant acceptance of the second Helvetic Confession, the [Root.GetAdjective] Reformed churches have also begun to unite with the other Reformed churches of our time.
The Catholic clergy, however, have always been strong supporters of royal power and look at these developments with distrust. While strong, the Reformed church remains young and vulnerable. Do we want to give the Reformed church space to grow or should we attempt to root it out before it is too late?

City Leagues of Upper Hungary

---

The many and rich mines of Upper Hungary are in many ways vital to our economic interests and have therefore often been afforded much greater liberties than we tolerate for other settlements in our country. The german saying 'Stadtluft macht frei' holds true both for the cities themselves and for anyone serfs who might find their way into the communities. With bullion short in supply all over Europe the city leagues are now richer and more sure of themselves than ever.
