Показать описание
In the 15th century, Bohemia, now part of the modern-day Czech Republic, was a region with quite a few points of interests in terms of religion, and social structure. However, the level of diversity varied throughout the century due to significant events such as the Hussite Wars.

Ethnic diversity:
The majority of the population was Czech.
There were also significant German-speaking communities, particularly in urban areas and border regions.
A small Jewish population lived primarily in Prague and other towns.
Religious diversity:
Prior to the Hussite Wars, most of the population was Roman Catholic.
The Hussite movement, led by Jan Hus, challenged the authority of the Catholic Church and gained significant followers.
The Hussite Wars (1419-1434) led to a period of religious upheaval and the establishment of the Hussite Church.
Despite the Hussite movement, Catholics remained a significant portion of the population.
There was a small Jewish community practicing Judaism.
Social diversity:
Bohemian society was divided into nobility, clergy, townspeople, and peasants.
The nobility consisted of both Czech and German families.
The clergy was primarily Catholic, but the Hussite movement created a separate religious hierarchy.
Townspeople included artisans, merchants, and other skilled workers.

Peasants made up the majority of the population and worked as farmers or laborers.
It is important to note that while Bohemia had some level of diversity, it was not necessarily a tolerant or inclusive society by modern standards. The Hussite Wars, in particular, led to significant religious and social tensions throughout the 15th century.

During this period, Bohemia had limited contact with regions where black populations were more prevalent, such as Africa or the Middle East.

The vast majority of the population in 15th century Bohemia was of European descent, primarily consisting of Czech, German, and Jewish communities. The feudal system and limited long-distance trade meant that there was relatively little migration from distant regions.

However, it is important to note that historical records from this period are not always comprehensive, especially when it comes to marginalized or minority groups. There may have been a very small number of black individuals living in Bohemia at the time, possibly arriving through trade routes, but their presence would have been rare and not well-documented.

Given the lack of reliable historical evidence, it is not possible to provide an accurate estimate of the number of black people living in 15th century Bohemia, but it is likely that the number was very low or in rural areas even zero.

There are some historical sources and studies that can provide general insights into the ethnic composition of Bohemia during this period:
1. "The Czech Lands in Medieval Transformation" by Jan Klápště (2012) discusses the social and ethnic structure of medieval Bohemia, although it does not provide specific percentages.
2. "The Germans and the Lands of the Bohemian Crown" by Václav Bůžek (2006) explores the role and presence of German-speaking communities in Bohemia during the late medieval and early modern periods.
3. "The Jews of Bohemia and Moravia: A Historical Reader" edited by Wilma Abeles Iggers (1992) includes essays on the Jewish population in medieval Bohemia, although it does not focus specifically on the 15th century.
4. "Demographic Avant-Garde: Jews in Bohemia between the Enlightenment and the Shoah" by Jana Vobecká (2013) provides some historical context on the Jewish population in Bohemia, but primarily focuses on later periods.
These sources can provide some historical context and qualitative insights into the ethnic composition of 15th century Bohemia, but they do not contain specific census data or ethnic percentages. Medieval population records, when they exist, are often fragmentary, localized, and do not systematically track ethnic identity in the same way that modern censuses do.

You wouldn't find a black person in czech village today but for some reason people think we should find one in medieval Bohemia.

Exactly where they should be. Not in Bohemia in the 15th century.

As a black dude, this didn't bother me in the least in KCD 1. Honestly, I would've been very annoyed if WARHORSE had broken the historical accuracy for the sake of inclusion. Folks trippin' over this are ignorant as...

*Fun fact:* Daniel Vavra once said on X that he was very proud to be a pioneer in the progressive inclusion of "gender neutral toilets" in games. That comment was posted with the image of a medieval latrine.

The people complaining are ussually people who aren't black and aren't gamers. Just random proffesional offended people looking for the next thing to feel offended by.

I'm ignoring LGBT voices.

Kingdom Come Deliverance has a homosexual character and he is handled very authentically. He has given himself over to be a monk in order not to give in to his desires, and you have the option of giving him a personally supportive word. "That's not my business, it's between you and Our Lord." when he is worried you're going to mock him. Iirc when the interaction comes up you can mock him, show fear, or offer him encouragement in his difficult spiritual walk. They handled it perfectly, for giving the option to be respectful and remaining historically accurate.

Archeologist from Scandinavia here. Im super grateful for Metatron's content here on youtube. Where so many other creators fall short in the neutral and scientific without politics approach the Metatron stand strong! Its truly a breath of fresh air and I strongly support and stand behind this content which is strongly aligned with what I was taught in university here. Just pure and simple historical accuracy should always be a pillar when creating or sharing information/content.

Metatron you don´t even realise how grateful we Czechs are that you actually said the Czech Republic is in Central Europe and not in Eastern Europe. People always get this wrong and basically take us as Russians :D

My mother who was born in 1943 remembers the first time she saw a black person in Brighton in the mid 1950s
The chances of running across one in 1500s Bohemia ANYWHERE, including cities, were virtually none existent.
Trying to claim otherwise is ludicrous.

As a native Czech who is proud of our rich history, thank you for this video. The KCD 2 game presents our history as it was, and has nothing to do with today's discrimination of any race, religion, or sexual orientation. History is history and should not be changed just to say "we are tolerant of anything and everything". Thank you <3

The game devs take pride in that series having as much historical accuracy as possible. Anyone wanting to deviate from said historical accuracy is actually trying to distort history for the sake of propaganda.

This whole "controversy" is purely American thing. It can be boiled down to "uneducated people are assuming stuff". They don't know anything about Europe in middle ages or even just Europe or just middle ages at all. They don't know how long, expensive, tedious and dangerous was traveling in that time and thus they don't know than very few people actually traveled outside their kingdom even once in their life time... most of people in middle ages didn't even personally knew someone who did. If anyone traveled anywhere it was for a very good specific reason. Most commerce done between mutually exotic places (like Africa and Central/Northern Europe) was done in Mediterranean ports and goods (like ivory) changed hands many many times before they got from lets say Ethiopia to Germany or anywhere in that geographical space. There were very very rare black people there but all 3 or 4 of them were servants at court of richest nobles and they basically never left his palace because their purpose was to pour drinks and more importantly be a living proof to his guests how rich he is... literally 0 chance to meet them in person. The most "exotic" person you could realistically meet was an Arabian/Jewish trader who tagged along with an envoy from some middle eastern kingdom to Rome and other important seats of power.
