Ch2 - waves of conquest criss crossing eater. Europe Lithuanians, Bulgarians empire magyars / Hungarians, germans, mongols in 1241, who amazingly left off the conquest of Europe in 1242 - they were called home because the supreme Khan had died and they had to choose a successor. Good king Wenceslas, a bohemian Duke from the 900s was kind to the poor.
