The Moravian Margrave Wars were a turbulent period of fighting, skirmishes, robbery and lawlessness that took place especially in Moravia at the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries.

[1] After the death of Charles IV in 1378, order began to gradually collapse both in the Lands of the Bohemian Crown and in the Holy Roman Empire.

Fighting began in 1381, and Prokop conquered Tepenec Castle (with the help of his commanders Jindřich of Nevojice and Unka of Majetín).

[1] While the majority of the Moravian lords took Jobst's side, Prokop gained allies in northern Moravia and Silesia.

Anarchy began in Moravia, during which many nobles turned into robber knights and raided not only the castles and villages of their opponents, but also the wagons of merchants.

In December 1399, Sigismund and his army crossed into Moravia after Jan XI Mráz [cs], the bishop of Olomouc, requested aid.

[1] The Assault on Jihlava [cs] occurred in February 1402, and was a failure for the commanders John Sokol and Zikmund of Křižanova.

In June, by the joint action of Sigismund and Jobst, Prokop was also lured out of Bezděz by trickery and then captured and imprisoned.

At the end of 1403, John II of Liechtenstein succeeded in helping Wenceslas escape from prison in Vienna, who then overthrew the government installed by Sigismund.

After the death of Prokop, Jobst of Luxemburg became the sole lord of Moravia and gradually came to terms with his cousins Wenceslaus and Sigismund.

Since he died like his brother Prokop without descendants, Moravia and the title of margrave went to the Czech king Wenceslas IV.
