Franconian War
The Franconian War (german: Fränkische Krieg) was waged in 1523 when the Swabian League attacked several robber baron castles in Franconia, whose nobles were supporters of Hans Thomas of Absberg in the Absberg Feud. Definitions Franconian War By comparison with other wars and battles the Franconian War was limited in extent and restricted to the region of Franconia. In a narrow sense, the term 'Franconian War' refers to the campaign by the Swabian League against 23 castles in June and July 1523. When the term first arose is still unclear, but reports of the conflict from the period immediately after 1523 were already speaking of 'acts of war'. In the 19th century the term was given a note of romance.

The religious revolution of the Protestant Reformation divided its members, and the Swabian League disbanded in 1534.

The Imperial City of Nuremberg (german: Reichsstadt Nürnberg) was a free imperial city — independent city-state — within the Holy Roman Empire. After Nuremberg gained piecemeal independence from the Burgraviate of Nuremberg in the High Middle Ages and considerable territory from Duchy of Bavaria, Bavaria in the War of the Succession of Landshut, Landshut War of Succession, it grew to become one of the largest and most important Imperial cities, the 'unofficial capital city, capital' of the Empire, particularly because numerous Imperial Diet (Holy Roman Empire), Imperial Diets () and courts met at Nuremberg Castle between 1211 and 1543.
