1396 CE to 1539 CE

Taborite armies also penetrate into Slovakia during the struggle against Sigismund.

Czech refugees from the religious wars in Bohemia and Moravia-Silesia settle here, and from 1438 to 1453 a Czech noble, Jan Jiskra of Brandys, controls most of southern Slovakia from the centers of Zvolen and Kosice.

Thus Hussite doctrine and the Czech Bible are disseminated among the Slovaks, providing the basis for a future link between the Czechs and their Slovak neighbors.
