	House of Premysl (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The head of the Premyslid house was usually designated a prince, or duke (kníze), until 1198, when Premysl Otakar I raised Bohemia to the status of a hereditary kingdom within the Holy Roman Empire.
		The Premyslid prince Vratislav II (1061–92) obtained from the Holy Roman emperor Henry IV the title of king of Bohemia as a personal (i.e., nonhereditary) privilege, and Prince Vladislav II (1140–73) was awarded the royal crown on the same basis by Friedrich I. Barbarossa (1123-1190).
		In 1197 Premysl Otakar I became the undisputed overlord of the Premyslid domains, and in 1198 he was able to secure the royal title for his descendants as well as himself.
