- Treaty of Brno (1478)
The Treaty of Brno was a draft to the
Peace of Olomouc developed in March of1478 inBrno by the envoys ofMatthias Corvinus ofHungary and KingVladislaus II of Bohemia and Hungary . Cornivus accepted the accord and slightly modified it onSeptember 20 ,1478 , which determined the division ofBohemian territories. Based on the terms of the treaty, Vladislaus would cede the territories ofMoravia ,Silesia , andLusatia to Cornivus. If Matthias perished, then Vladislaus was permitted to redeem these lands for 400,000 florins. Moreover, both monarchs would be permitted to utilize the title "King of Bohemia". However, only Matthias was required to address the other claimant as the "King of Bohemia". [Engel, p. 305. "The division of the lands belonging to the Bohemian crown, which was made by the envoys of Mathias and Wladislas at Brno in March 1478, was accepted by the king of Hungary, with minor modifications, on 20 September. It was ratified by the two rulers on 21 July 1479 during the course of splendid festivities at Olomouc. According to the terms of the treaty, Wladislas was to retain the kingdom of Bohemia proper, while the greater part of the territory once ruled by the king of Bohemia, that is, Moravia, Silesia, and Lausitz, remained in Matthias's possession. Wladislas was entitled to redeem these domains for 400,000 florins after Matthias's death. Both rulers could use the title of king of Bohemia, but whereas Matthias was obliged to address his opponent as such, it was not to be the case the other way round. The peace treaty between Hungary and Poland had been signed somewhat earlier, on 2 April 1479, and thereafter until Matthias's death the three countries coexisted peacefully."]ee also
