Years: 1088 - 1088
Vratislaus covets the largely Slavic marches of Meissen and Lusatia, but, in spite of Henry's promises and Bohemian successes against the rebellious margraves, he never receives them.
He had held Lower Lusatia between 1075 and 1086, but in 1088, with the insurrection of Egbert II of Meissen, Henry had granted the region to Henry of Ostmark.
Vratislaus is from this point cool to Henry's military adventures.
He will never waver in his loyalty, but will abstain from giving the emperor martial aid.
