Note: Saxony begins as an ethnic dukedom in
the 9th century. It gradually becomes
territorial, and shifts geographically from
present-day Niedersachsen to present-day Sachsen. This
account begins with the confirmation of electoral status
of the duke.
- 7 Apr 1180 The old duchy of Saxony is reduced to the area around
- Wittenberg and given to the Askanien dynasty.
- 25 Dec 1356 The Golden Bull confirms that the Duke of Saxony is an
- elector, and makes his land indivisible; style of ruler:
- Herzog von Sachsen, Erzmarschall und Kurfürst des Heiligen
- Römischen Reichs (Duke of Saxony, Archmarshal and
- Prince-Elector of the Holy Roman Empire).
- 27 Nov 1422 Alrecht III, last of the Askanien dynasty dies, Saxony
- under imperial administration.
- 6 Jan 1423 Saxony is enfeoffed to the Wettin dynasty, Markgraf of Meissen.
- 7 Sep 1464 Dukes Ernst and Albrecht IV "der Beherzte" rule jointly,
- Ernst being elector.
- 11 Nov 1485 The Herzogtum Sachsen is divided between Albrecht and Ernst,
- Ernst retaining the (indivisible) electorate; thus the dynasty
- splits into the Ernestine line and the Albertine line.
- 19 May 1547 The Ernestine line is deprived of the electorate; it goes
- on to establish the Saxon duchies in Thuringia.
- 4 Jun 1547 The electorate is conferred on the Albertine line.
- 27 Jun 1697 - 5 Oct 1763 In personal union with the Kingdom of Poland.
- 11 Dec 1806 Kingdom of Saxony (Königreich Sachsen) proclaimed.
- 8 Jul 1807 - 18 Feb 1813 In personal union with the Duchy of Warsaw (Poland).
- 28 Oct 1813 - 8 Jun 1815 Provisional Allied administration.
- 18 May 1815 The king is forced to recognize the loss of the northern
- and western areas (58% of Saxony) to Prussia.
- 13 Nov 1918 Free State of Saxony (see German states since 1918).

County of Holstein, Dithmarschen, Wagrien and Stormarn
united as Duchy of Holstein (Herzogtum Holstein);
from here
on Schleswig and Holstein are in personal union.
1490
The combined polities are split into Segebergscher
Anteil
and Gottorpscher Anteil (Segeberg Portion and
Gottorp
Portion), but they are governed as a whole by the rulers
of the two lines ruling in alternation.
13 Apr
1523

annexed
by the Segeberg line (i.e., the kings of Denmark).

the Segeberg line in exchange for Oldenburg,
thus reuniting
Schleswig and Holstein under the kings of Denmark, while

member
of the Holy Roman Empire and later of the German
Confederation.

Augustenburg (formerly non-sovereign) line.
30 Oct
1864
King Christian IX (Glücksburg) cedes his rights to both
polities to Prussia and Austria jointly (Convention of
Vienna); Austria subsequently supports the claims of

Holstein to this end in Jun 1866.
7 Jun

German states ensues.
