    In those days, the concept of nationality didn’t really exist. You were either loyal to your feudal lord or you just did it for the money.

      Something cool I discovered in my rabit hole.

      “Hussites flocked to Tábor from all over Bohemia. Economically supported by Tábor’s control of local gold mines, the citizens joined the local peasants in developing an intentionally communal living. Taborites announced the Millennium of Christ, and declared that there would be no more servants or masters, that all property would be held in common, and that there would be no more taxation.[2] They promised that people would return to a state of pristine innocence. Some historians have found parallels to modern nationalist revolutionary movements.[3] Additionally, Murray Bookchin argued that Tábor was an early example of anarcho-communism.[4]”
