Map no. 11
shows that in 1346 on the death of Friedrich dem Ernsthaften (the Serious), his states were divided between three sons: Friedrich der Strenge (the Strict) got Osterland and Pleissnerland together with Coburg (yellow), Balthasar got Thuringia together with Hildburghausen (blue), and Wilhelm Meissen (red). Subsequently a land exchange took place between Friedrich and Wilhelm, which historians, however, have not recorded clearly enough to allow us to provide a map of it. | Map no. 11
zeigt, daß im J. 1346 bei Friedrichs des Ernsthaften Tode seine Staaten Zwischen drei Söhnen getheilt wurden. Friedrich der Strenge bekam das Osterland und das Pleißnerland nebst Coburg, gelb, Balthasar Thüringen nebst Hildburghausen, blau und Wilhelm Meißen, roth. In der Folge fand ein Ländertausch zwischen Friedrich und Wilhelm statt, welchen aber die Geschichtschreiber nicht deutlich genug darstellen, um eine Charte Davon liefern zu können. |
