THEN - Duking It Out Among the Přemyslids (1061-1167)
Přemyslid ambitions continue to make things interesting. Vratislav gets a lance, Soběslav gets to hold a cup, Crusades are joined and avoided, Vladislav goes on walkabout, the Gothic period starts and Prague gets a new bridge. And just when it looks like things are finally going to calm down, they don't.
