| | East Frisia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | 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. | | | But a party of opposing chieftains under leadership of the Cirksenas from Greetsiel defeated and expelled, Fokko who later died in a place near Groningen. |

| | FEDERALISM |
| | In the northern German seaport of Emden, the reformed city bourgeoisie battled for autonomy against a Lutheran provincial lord who needed the taxes of his wealthiest subjects for the intended transformation of Eastern Frisia from a feudal agrarian province into modernized absolutist statehood. | | | One of the professors at Herborn, Johannes Althusius, published a book of politics in which he attacked the new doctrine of undivided territorial sovereignty, attributing the rightful ownership of sovereignty to the federally organized body of the people instead. | | | In Nassau-Dillenburg, Johan the Elder, a brother of William of Orange, founded the University of Herborn, a "school of federal theology" which became a centre of political Calvinism. |

| | At least 780 specimens were present in the Kloster Barthe hoard in eastern Frisia and there were some 400 examples among the prolific site finds from Domburg, a port in the Rhine mouth, but they also reached England and Merovingian France in fair numbers. | | | Coins of this phase have been found mainly in Frisia and the lower Rhineland, where they are thought to have been made. | | | Together these two finds - the most northerly from the British Isles - provide important evidence for contact between eastern Scotland and the Continent 50 years or more before the traditional date for the beginning of the Viking Age. |
