Battle of Bila Hora - Battle of Bila Hora
In November 1620, on the hill of Bílá hora (Weissen Berg in German), a battle between the forces of the Holy Roman Emperor and the forces of Bohemian nobles and mercenaries, took place. It is also known as the Battle of the White Mountain. It was the decisive battle during the Bohemian-Palatinate War (1618-20), which marked the beginning of the Thirty Years' War (1618-48), and was the cause of the spread of hostilities throughout Europe. In May 1618, Bohemian Protestant nobles, who had rejected the appointment of Ferdinand of Habsburg (later Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand II), who was feared by Protestants as a persecutor of heretics, as King of Bohemia (July 1617), threw the king's representative and three others out of a window in Prague Castle into the moat.

1620年11月にボヘミア王国の首都プラハ西方郊外のビーラー・ホラBílá hora(〈白い山〉の意。ドイツ語でワイセン・ベルクWeissen Berg)の丘で衝突した神聖ローマ皇帝軍とボヘミア貴族・傭兵軍との戦闘。白山の戦とも呼ばれる。三十年戦争(1618‐48)の発端となったボヘミア・ファルツ戦争(1618‐20)時の決戦で戦火が全ヨーロッパ規模に拡大される原因となった。 異端迫害者としてプロテスタントに恐れられていたハプスブルク家のフェルディナント(のちに神聖ローマ皇帝フェルディナント2世)のボヘミア王就任(1617年7月)を否認したボヘミアのプロテスタント派貴族が,1618年5月,国王代理ら3名をプラハ城の窓から濠に突き落とすという事件を起こした。
