Was a principality of the Holy Roman Empire in northern Germany. Braunschweig was divided and reunited several times. We take only in consideration the partition in Braunschweig-Lüneburg and Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel as in the maps of G. Droysen, “Historischer Handatlas” (1886). Wolfenbüttel is treated as a separate state from 1705, when Braunschweig entered into a Personal Union with Great Britain.
