The death of Rupert, King of Germany,…

June 1410 CE

The death of Rupert, King of Germany, in 1410, avoids a brewing popular war of restoration on behalf of deposed former emperor Wenceslas, who names himself a candidate for the German throne, but the electors, unwilling to deal with the embarrassment of reelecting him, name to the kingship his half-brother Sigismund, King of Hungary, and Jobst, or Jossus, Margrave of Moravia.
