I'm currently playing as the Golden Horde and I'm getting destroyed by Bohemia. In the early game I expanded a fair bit but now my armies have become hopelessly obsolete and I don't stand a chance. I'm trying to Westernize (reached the Muslim tech group so far) and I managed to reform my government but I still have quite a long way to go.

Bohemia took about 10 provinces from me before I reformed and I was hoping they would make peace with me once I stopped being nomadic. They initially accepted a peace treaty and I started to bribe them at every possible opportunity to reduce chances of a future war. I managed to raise relations from -200 to 0 but as soon as the truce expired they hit me with a Holy War. They're likely to cut me off from the Black Sea soon and they're getting alarmingly close to my capital and my CoT.

Does anybody have any idea how I can get them to leave me alone for a bit? I just need a few decades of breathing space to finish Westernizing. Is there any point in raising relations with them or are they still likely to attack due to the religious differences? I don't hold any provinces with Bohemian cores.

They are likely to continue attacking you until you are strong enough.
What are your land tech levels?
what terrotory do you control?

So they have colonzed 10 provinces before you could make peace? Well I know it won't help you now but you couldn't you have put a vassal between you and bohemia to stop the automatic war?

My land tech is around 10, but I still have nomad units so I'm stuck with Steppe Cavalry and Eastern Archers. I have been able to build small quantities of Pikemen and Eastern Hussars in provinces with foreign cores but I haven't been able to get enough of them yet to make a difference. My territory is from just east of Finland to about halfway to the Pacific (above Kazakh) plus the area between the Black and Caspian Seas.

I thought about releasing a vassal earlier but I couldn't see a good way to do it in this case. I tried softening up Poland and leaving them as a barrier between me and central Europe, but after I took most of their provinces, Bohemia attacked them and annexed the rest.

Land tech 10, and nomad units, are quite decent. I mean, until LT 13, nomad units dominate, and even then, they are decent. Anyways you should just westernize, and reform goverment asap, then you will be safe.
