In the 15th century, Bohemia, now part of the modernday Czech Republic, was a region with quite a few points of interests in terms of religion, and social structure. However, the level of diversity varied throughout the century due to significant events such as the Hussite Wars.

Ethnic diversity:
The majority of the population was Czech.
There were also significant Germanspeaking communities, particularly in urban areas and border regions.
A small Jewish population lived primarily in Prague and other towns.
Religious diversity:
Prior to the Hussite Wars, most of the population was Roman Catholic.
The Hussite movement, led by Jan Hus, challenged the authority of the Catholic Church and gained significant followers.
The Hussite Wars (14191434) led to a period of religious upheaval and the establishment of the Hussite Church.
Despite the Hussite movement, Catholics remained a significant portion of the population.
There was a small Jewish community practicing Judaism.
Social diversity:
Bohemian society was divided into nobility, clergy, townspeople, and peasants.
The nobility consisted of both Czech and German families.
The clergy was primarily Catholic, but the Hussite movement created a separate religious hierarchy.
Townspeople included artisans, merchants, and other skilled workers.

Peasants made up the majority of the population and worked as farmers or laborers.
It is important to note that while Bohemia had some level of diversity, it was not necessarily a tolerant or inclusive society by modern standards. The Hussite Wars, in particular, led to significant religious and social tensions throughout the 15th century.

During this period, Bohemia had limited contact with regions where black populations were more prevalent, such as Africa or the Middle East.

The vast majority of the population in 15th century Bohemia was of European descent, primarily consisting of Czech, German, and Jewish communities. The feudal system and limited longdistance trade meant that there was relatively little migration from distant regions.

However, it is important to note that historical records from this period are not always comprehensive, especially when it comes to marginalized or minority groups. There may have been a very small number of black individuals living in Bohemia at the time, possibly arriving through trade routes, but their presence would have been rare and not welldocumented.

Given the lack of reliable historical evidence, it is not possible to provide an accurate estimate of the number of black people living in 15th century Bohemia, but it is likely that the number was very low or in rural areas even zero.

There are some historical sources and studies that can provide general insights into the ethnic composition of Bohemia during this period:
1. "The Czech Lands in Medieval Transformation" by Jan Klápště (2012) discusses the social and ethnic structure of medieval Bohemia, although it does not provide specific percentages.
2. "The Germans and the Lands of the Bohemian Crown" by Václav Bůžek (2006) explores the role and presence of Germanspeaking communities in Bohemia during the late medieval and early modern periods.
3. "The Jews of Bohemia and Moravia: A Historical Reader" edited by Wilma Abeles Iggers (1992) includes essays on the Jewish population in medieval Bohemia, although it does not focus specifically on the 15th century.
4. "Demographic AvantGarde: Jews in Bohemia between the Enlightenment and the Shoah" by Jana Vobecká (2013) provides some historical context on the Jewish population in Bohemia, but primarily focuses on later periods.
These sources can provide some historical context and qualitative insights into the ethnic composition of 15th century Bohemia, but they do not contain specific census data or ethnic percentages. Medieval population records, when they exist, are often fragmentary, localized, and do not systematically track ethnic identity in the same way that modern censuses do.
