 | | At this time, Christianization by the missionaries Liudger and Willehad started; one part of East Frisia became a part of the diocese of Bremen, the other the diocese of Münster. | | | Despite their numerical superiority they failed to defeat Edzard, and in 1517 the emperor had to accept Edzard and his descendants as counts of East Frisia. | | | Original East Frisian survived somewhat longer in several remote places as for example in the islands, such as Wangerooge. |

| | Petitions for Relief and the Dynamics of Pacification |
| | Underlying this explanation is a contrast with the poorer and predominantly Lutheran villages of the East Frisia’s sandy hinterlands, or «Geest». | | | This policy, in turn, was predicated on a social interpretation of East Frisia’s domestic conflicts that consisted of two fundamental propositions. | | | A concluding section suggests some implications of these findings for the historical sociology of communication; for the conceptualization of petitions, both as forms of symbolic action and as genres of historical evidence; and for the long-term impact that the criminalization of peasant resistance had on structures of political communication in early modern Europe. |
