John Huss, the Bohemian reformer and follower of Wycliffe, born circa 1373, was condemned as a heretic and executed at the Council of Constance in 1415. Following his death, Bohemia and its neighbours were convulsed for over 20 years by the various warring parties, internal and external, religious and secular, reformers and conservatives, in what became known as the 'Hussite Wars'.
