Johann Von Türckheim (diplomat)
Johann von Türckheim () (10 November 1749 – 28 January 1824) was a French politician and a German diplomat. Family Jean de Turckheim was the oldest son of Baron Jean de Turckheim (1707–1793) and a brother of Bernard-Frédéric de Turckheim. His nephew, Jean-Frédéric de Turckheim, was the eighth mayor of Strasbourg. Life He was elected as a deputy of Strasbourg to the Estates-General in 1789. Initially supportive of the revolution, he became disenchanted with its goals after the violence of July and August 1790 and became convinced that the unrest was part of a broader plan to overthrow the king and establish a radical republic. After a short term as mayor of Strasbourg, he left France, and offered his services to the Duke of Hesse, whom he served for several years, in particular as envoy to Rome. He died in Altorf (Ettenheim), in the Grand Duchy of Baden in 1824. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Estates General (France)
In France under the Ancien Régime, the Estates General (french: États généraux ) or States-General was a legislative and consultative assembly of the different classes (or estates) of French subjects. It had a separate assembly for each of the three estates (clergy, nobility and commoners), which were called and dismissed by the king. It had no true power in its own right as, unlike the English Parliament, it was not required to approve royal taxation or legislation. It served as an advisory body to the king, primarily by presenting petitions from the various estates and consulting on fiscal policy. The Estates General first met in 1302 and 1303 in relation to King Philip IV's conflict with the papacy. They met intermittently until 1614 and only once afterward, in 1789, but were not definitively dissolved until after the French Revolution. The Estates General were distinct from the '' parlements'' (the most powerful of which was the Parliament of Paris), which started as ...

Papal States
The Papal States ( ; it, Stato Pontificio, ), officially the State of the Church ( it, Stato della Chiesa, ; la, Status Ecclesiasticus;), were a series of territories in the Italian Peninsula under the direct sovereign rule of the pope from 756 until 1870. They were among the major states of Italy from the 8th century until the unification of Italy, between 1859 and 1870. The state had its origins in the rise of Christianity throughout Italy, and with it the rising influence of the Christian Church. By the mid-8th century, with the decline of the Byzantine Empire in Italy, the Papacy became effectively sovereign. Several Christian rulers, including the Frankish kings Charlemagne and Pepin the Short, further donated lands to be governed by the Church. During the Renaissance, the papal territory expanded greatly and the pope became one of Italy's most important secular rulers as well as the head of the Church. At their zenith, the Papal States covered most of the modern Ita ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
