Judith Of Sülichgau
Judith, Duchess of Bavaria, also ''Judith im Sülichgau'' and ''Judith von Friaul'', from the Unrochinger family (born after 888) was a Duchess of Bavaria by marriage to Arnulf of Bavaria. She married Duke Arnulf in 910. Historians believed she was the daughter of Eberhard of Friuli (d. 866). However, as the dates don't match up, it is now believed that the Unruoching Judith married by Arnulf was in fact the daughter of Count Eberhard of Sülichgau (d. after 889), Eberhard of Friuli's grandson. Judith and Arnulf's eldest daughter, Judith, married Henry I, Duke of Bavaria, brother of Emperor Otto I, which decisively promoted the integration of Bavaria into the emerging Holy Roman Empire. As an Unruoching, Judith brought inheritance claims to the Longobard royal crown into the marriage, which Duke Arnulf tried in vain to realize for his son Eberhard Eberhard is an old Germanic name meaning the strength or courage of a wild boar.

List Of Bavarian Consorts
There have been three kinds of Bavarian consorts in history, Duchesses, Electresses and Queens. Most consorts listed are Duchesses. The first ever consort of Bavaria was Waldrada in the 6th century. The final consort was Maria Theresa of Austria-Este (1849–1919), Maria Theresia of Austria-Este in 1913. The longest serving House was the Wittelsbach Dynasty, who played a major role in Bavarian History. During the medieval period under the Wittelsbach Dynasty, Bavaria was split into two parts, Upper and Lower Bavaria. This meant that there may have been more than one Duchess of Bavaria at the same time, due to messy inheritance among heirs. Three of the break-away Wittelsbach families were: Landshut, Munich and Ingolstadt. Since 555 there have been 99 Bavarian consorts: 78 duchesses, 11 queens, 10 electresses and one margravine. The number doesn't add up because Elizabeth of Lorraine and Caroline of Baden, held two titles. There was a few consort that married twice usually their ...

Otto The Great
Otto I (23 November 912 – 7 May 973), traditionally known as Otto the Great (german: Otto der Große, it, Ottone il Grande), was East Frankish king from 936 and Holy Roman Emperor from 962 until his death in 973. He was the oldest son of Henry the Fowler and Matilda of Ringelheim. Otto inherited the Duchy of Saxony and the kingship of the Germans upon his father's death in 936. He continued his father's work of unifying all German tribes into a single kingdom and greatly expanded the king's powers at the expense of the aristocracy. Through strategic marriages and personal appointments, Otto installed members of his family in the kingdom's most important duchies. This reduced the various dukes, who had previously been co-equals with the king, to royal subjects under his authority. Otto transformed the church in Germany to strengthen royal authority and subjected its clergy to his personal control. After putting down a brief civil war among the rebellious duchies, Otto defeate ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
