Matthias I, the King of Hungary and Croatia, was renowned for establishing the Black Army and reshaping justice in his realm. His reign saw the reduction of aristocratic power and the promotion of meritocracy. Let's explore the story, Special Skill, General Specialty, and how to acquire Matthias I.
The Story of Matthias I
Matthias I was the King of Hungary and Croatia who established the Black Army of Hungary. In order to keep justice, he reduced the power of the aristocracy and promoted professions in which talent was chosen on the basis of ability rather than social status.
In 1485, Matthias I's formidable Black Army, known for its black armor, decisively breached Vienna after overpowering enemies in Bohemia, Czech, and beyond. This victory led Austria to lose half of its territory to Matthias, the multilingual Hungarian emperor who brought the Renaissance to Hungary. His Black Army, Europe's first major standing army since the Roman era, comprised 30,000 musket-armed troops, triumphing over the Ottomans at the Battle of Bradfield in 1479. Crowned king of Croatia and Bohemia, Matthias forged a vast Eastern European territory, marking a significant chapter in 15th-century world history with his remarkable talents.
