Historically significant events in Europe between 1404 and 1438

[Mark Knowles]

Whilst not everyone believes the Voynich manuscript is European in origin my impression is that this is the dominant view.(Now is the moment when I am told how many people think it may not be European in origin.)

Assuming it is European in origin and assuming that the carbon dating dates are correct I thought it interesting to explore what a history of Europe from 1404-1438 might be depending on what events are thought to be important in the time and not incidental. (I am sure it can be debated what constitutes "important" events and what doesn't, but I hope not to get sidetracked into this discussion and away from real historical events.)

Now it could be argued that the major events of history probably had little bearing or relation to the Voynich, but who knows?
