Albert, king of the Romans, declared that Bohemia was a vacant fief of the Empire, and, mainly by intimidation, induced the Bohemians to elect his son Rudolph as their sovereign; but Rudolph died after a reign of only one year.

Czechs name Přemysl as the reputed ancestor of the line of dukes and kings which ruled in Bohemia from 873 or earlier until the murder of Wenceslaus III[?] in 1306.
According to legend Přemysl was a peasant of Stadice[?] who attracted the notice of Libussa (Libuše), daughter of a certain Krok, who ruled over a large part of Bohemia, and is said to have been descended from Samo[?].
His family became extinct in the male line when Wenceslaus III died, but through females the title to Bohemia passed from the Přemyslids to the House of Luxemburg[?] and later to the House of Habsburg.

 Strategy Gaming Online - Reviews: Crusader Kings
Dukes (and other titles with similar breadth such as Prince or Archbishop) are the middling tier, and are probably a good place to start when you wade into your first game.

If some piddling Count in Hungary wants to marry my King’s second daughter, what does that mean for me? It could be that he’s in the line of royal succession for the throne, and her eldest son could, if the circumstances are right, bind that royal house to my own.

The emperors rarely had means by which to directly influence choice of dukes/later kings of Bohemia.
It seem s to me that if you consider Bohemia the part of HRE you may well add Hungary or even Poland to papacy, as they were both officially owing allegiance to Papacy (apostolic kings of Hungary, etc...).
