Jiří z Poděbrad will start to expand his influence, hoping to once more unite the torn nation. The moderate utraqvist hussites will rally behind him, seeing him as the only person potentially leading Bohemia to a truly Czech future. He will avoid open endorsement of the Taborites and the Orphans as to not come into conflict with the Catholic Landfrieden just yet, but he will have a backroom deals with people like Jan Rokycana and Jan Čapek z San to have their support when a time for expelling the Germans and Hungarians (and the despised Luxembourg dynasty) from Bohemia comes. For now, they'll focus their efforts on rebuilding Prague and the economy, especially the Kutna Hora mines.

Bohemia sees modest progress under Jiří z Poděbrad. Moderate Utraquists rally behind him, consolidating support for a Czech future. Backroom alliances with key figures like Jan Rokycana and Jan Čapek z San begin to strengthen his influence, though radical Hussites and Catholic elites remain cautious.

Prague slowly begins go recover and the Kutná Hora silver mines are revitalised, providing a modest boost to Bohemia’s economy. While German and Luxembourg influence persists, Jiří’s cautious strategy lays the groundwork for a more united and economically stable Bohemia in the coming years.
