History
John Henry was the son of John, king of Bohemia. John became king by deposing Henry in 1310. Seventeen years later, the two made amends with a betrothal between their children.
John Henry married Margaret, Henry's only daughter and heir, in 1330.
After Henry died in 1335, Louis IV of the Holy Roman Empire seized the county of Tyrol and granted it to the joint dukes of Austria, Albert II and Otto. John invaded Austria and secured the county of Tyrol for his son. John Henry ruled as count of Tyrol with his brother, Charles IV, acting as regent.
In 1341, Margaret betrayed John Henry and refused his entry into Tyrol. With support from Louis IV, she had the marriage annulled and re-married Louis V, margrave of Brandenburg.
In 1349, Charles IV gifted the margraviate of Moravia to John Henry in exchange for renouncing all claims to the Bohemian throne.
