What factors and events determined the crisis of traditional society in Europe? Describe the significance of the Hussite movement in the Czech Republic.

The crisis in society was determined by the following factors:

1) Hussite movement in the Czech Republic;

2) plague epidemics, as well as a spiritual crisis;

3) changes in economic life associated with the plague and demographic changes;

4) a long process of falling of the authority of the Catholic Church.

The Hussite movement played one of the key roles in the crisis of medieval society. We can say that the New Time came not only with geographical discoveries, but with the reformation. The very same Hussite movement was the forerunner of the Reformation, since they opposed the Catholic Church.
