It would entail the risk that the dynasty might die out, if Philip the Younger were to die without a male heir. * Alternatively, the famlity could ignore the primogeniture decision and allow ...

While the duchy of Bavaria-Straubing was still divided between Bavaria-Ingolstadt, Bavaria-Munich and Bavaria-Landshut after the extinction of the dukes of Straubing in 1429, Henry managed to receive the duchy of ...

In 1363 Stephen became also Duke of Upper Bavaria which was then re-united with Bavaria-Landshut. After Stephen's death his three sons ruled the duchy jointly.
