Friedrich V., king of Bohemia,Elector Palatine, was born 26.8.1596 as the son and successor of Phalz kurfist Friedrich IV. /1583-1610/, important man in protestant camp, head of Protestant Union, relatives to the king of Denmark and Netherlands ruler Moric of Orange. 1609 was among several notcatholic rulers, which sent to Rudolf II. intercede letter with request to give to Czech statuses known Majestat for the freedom of faith. Friedrich of the Rhine /Fridrich Falcky/ - Elector Palatine of the Rhine /falcky kurfist/ Friedrich V. became the head of the protestant Union and husband of Elizabeth Stuart, she married him in 1613 in the age of 17. Elizabeth was born 19.8.1596 in Fifa, Scotland as the daughter of James VI, king of Scotland, later James I of England.
In 1619 was elected by statuses of Czech countries, which rebelled against Habsburgs."And because, king Fridrich,
we please, how we can most high,
cast out enemies from the home country
and do not give them more to steal
let we have free freedom,
under the Both we confirm,
Body, Blood of Lord Jesus,
cause it, king Fridrich!"Poeta Czechicus, Simon Lomnicky of Budca invited new Czech king by these verses. First stop before entering Prague was in the royal forests just at the White Mountain build on the way of six or sevenprism star, called Star, where he also had the lunch. Representatives of the status government, which were not in his procession and hunderds of other nobles and townsmen came to invite their ruler. 31.10.1619 entered his procession to the capital. Their procession was formed to trumphal entering to the city Prague. Usually this was made on the area of todays Zizkov or Karlin, but now the ruler came from the west on the old and today existing way from Louny and Slany. Royal residence at the White mountain was the best necessary stop. Chroniker counts great number of composition of the procession, counting more than thousand members, crowds looked around the way between the Star /Hvezda/ and Prague castle. It was made with such beauty, splendor and joyfulness, that to it was shown by procession of almost none previous king. Friedrich often put down the hut from head against them and from the kindness thanked them. 23.5.1618 made the group of status radikals defenestration of royal directors. Setting of thirty directors, casting out jezuits and great agitation defending the act in abroad, diplomacy trying to get allies in notcatholic Europe and gathering of army, lead politics to go to Heilderberg, where had seat the court of Friedrich. He was for this rebelly, together with sas Elector John George /Jan Jiri/ he tried but without success to gain the peace between Czech statuses and caesar, but in Europe was in the summer 1918 understood as clear ally of Czechs. In July 1618 he sent hofmistr of his court, count Albert of Solms, which promised to statuses greatest support of his lord. He really tried to get support also at father-in-law in England. First greatest support they get from savoy Duke Charles Emmanuel /Karl Emmanuel/ 2000 men under the leading of general Peter Arnost of Mansfeld, later the best duke. In the second half of 1918 appears the first thought to lift up Friedrich of the Rhine of the Czech throne. The plane got the support of the diplomat of Friedrich Kristian of Anhalt. After the death of Matyas in march 1619 the situation changed and his sucessor was Ferdinand Styrsky, later caesar Ferdinand II., cousin of Matyas.
But decision if to accept the crown was not easy and many historical and political events of that I do not say here and it needs deeper study from many literature, for interesting here is the witness of one of his courtman that Friedrich had great hesitating from which God alone will lead him and show him the true way. This influenced also English diplomats working in Heilderberg having oppinion that when Friedrich would not accept the election from Bohemia, he would became most hateful prince in protestant world. Other influencing I believe was that he was descendant of many Czech kings and house of Premysl, Jiri of Podebrad and so on.

His wife Elizabeth was
crowned
7.11.1619.Friedrich was crowned by the Saint Vaclav crown, today it is stored in the leather case with coat of arms in crown room. Crown has many precious stones, pearls and the thorn from the crown of the Lord Jesus Christ, which French king gave to Charles IV. This crown was not from the times of Premysls and was given to made by Charles IV. and dedicated it to Saint Vaclav. It was made 1341 and had size of the skull of Saint Vaclav and he asked pope Kliment VI. to give bula to protect the crown. Bula from 1346 it should lay on the skull of Saint Vaclav except of the day of coronation of new Czech king. Till the dark of the day it should always return back to Saint Vaclav. Today it is not given on the skull, because the weight of 2,5 kg can cause that the skull would be destructed. Kliment VI. On the demand of the Charles IV. forbid to misuse and steal jewels, when someone would do it, he should be punished by uncallable exkomunication from the church and he would fall to the anger of the God Almighty and blessed apostles Peter and Paul. Here is also legend that except of exkomunication what was in the middle ages one of the most strict punishments, the sinner would have damning that till year he will die by not natural death. Reinhard Heydrich , protektor of Czechy and Moravia put the Saint Vaclav crown on head and earlier as year came from this event, someone made atentant on him. Crown has 2360 grams, it is from 21-karat gold and has 96 jewels and 20 pearls. Some of them belong to the most great on the world. The red one was long the most precious and only recently was known that i tis not rubin but less precious rubelit.
Sceptre and Apple are from the second half of 18. century so is not researchable now for me to write Fridrich’s. Among treasury belongs also coronational mantle, Saint Vit sword and cross. On apple were biblical motives.
In times of Friedrich were crown jewels at Karlstejn, there were also land covers, in which were law things written, which were also in Prague, so Karlstejn was very important castle.
Friedrich V. brought crown jewels from Karlstejn and gave them to watch in Prague for many gold.
Czech statuses naturaly awaited from him help from abroad.Enemies of Friedrich of the Rhine called him in January 1620 contemptuously Winter king and wanted to say by it that he will rule just only that one winter, they did not guess that winter king will rule in Bohemia four year seasons, he was there whole year. During this time he made many things, he came through whole country, made crown way to Moravia and Silesia, lead tens of diplomatic matters, took part two months land parliament where he gained from statuses the sucession for his oldest son, despite that in 1619 they thought to make new king prince Rupert /Ruprecht/, because he will spoke Czech language, he was personaly present of army work, picturepurifying, obrazoborecka ocista, pictureremoving purifying was mentioned also in times of Great Moravia,
of the Temple of Saint Vit in Prague from unknown gods and he had with him protestant pastors,8. 11.1620 was Battle at the White Mountain, endured circa two hours and Friedrich had to escape from Prague with whole family and let crown jewels in the building of the magistrate of Stare Mesto prazske. Followers of caesar Ferdinand II. despised the end of his ruling in Bohemia and wrote that on his hurry escape from Prague he forgot there also English Podvazkovy order, what the lost is his greatest and the most annoying shame and mockery, what I thanked to God to know which order he had, because I see lack of history literature in Czechoslovakia dedicated to Friedrich, Rupert and other nobles. And almost forget little Prince Rupert and servant went with him.After 1620 they lived in Haag. Most famous children were Elector Charles Ludwig, prince Rupert and Sofie /1630-1714/. Elizabeth supported exulants after the White Mountain except others also Jan Amos Komensky.After the battle at the White Mountain Friedrich tried to get the land again and it was Thirty years war, he called also prophets to prophecy about his victory or loss, one prophet was man and other woman, mentioned largely in history of Bratislava, but there were mentioned that prophetess had epileptic attack, what I cannot recognize concerning to comunism against religion theories and people who are against God and not knowing who and why changed in case of lie and does not believe or it was truth and she was the witch and prophets and witches have same name in Hebrew,the prophecy was about enterning Friedrich to the throne and here I cannot say anything, because if it would be
Alone Friedrich of the Rhine accepted Kotter 4 days after the battle at the White Mountain, but things which he prophesied were so phantastic that he could not believe them. Not so Komensky /Comenius/, who translated Kotter's prophesies to Czech. He agitated by it the leading of the Jednota bratska, but simple words people believed, because in them was hope. Komensky believed also to Kristina Poniatowska, who alone noticed visions during histeric-epileptic attacks. He said that they are ubnormal origin, he published them and advocated their veracity. Both prophets did not finish well. 1632 they died and Friedrich, king of Sweden Gustav Adolf turned out Kotter and Poriatowska her prophesies called off.
1633 Prince Rupert fought in Thirty years war in many battles and sieges and 1638 also, 1942 was called to go to England.
1620 were spread German leaflets Circle of luck of Fridrich von der Phalz.
Elizabeth queen consort of Frederick, king of Bohemia /1619-20/, elector of the Palatinate /1596-1632/ after he was defeated by the Roman Catholic Holy Roman emperor Ferdinand II, a rival claimant to the Bohemian throne. Frederick and Elizabeth were forced to seek asylum abroad, eventually settling in The Hague.
29.11.1632 Friedrich V. departed to the Lord.
fter death of her husband in 1632 was Elizabeth active in the Protestant cause on the Continent. Later she returned to England and when died, was burried in Westminster Abbey. She had 13 children included Sophia, electress of Hannover /1630-1714/, her child became king George I. of England. In polemic I found from historician if was mistake that Fridrich accepted Czech throne, I have to tell that it was not mistake, but he was predestined by God to evangelize Bohemia and the history evangelize till today remembering protestantism. It had also surely great importance in world history that today are his descendants on throne of England, because children of Elizabeth Stuart were more important beeing children of rulers, not only grandchildren of James I.. So king became as representant of God on earth as it was in the person of king David, king Salomon and king Jesus.by Eva Bartosova alias Ruperta
