Franz Ludwig von Erthal, Prince-Bishop (Bamberg Prince-Bishopric) : All Data

Franz Ludwig von Erthal was a Prince-Bishop who ruled over the Bamberg Prince-Bishopric from 1787 to 1802. During his tenure, he witnessed the outbreak of the French Revolutionary Wars (1792-1802), which had a significant impact on the political landscape of Europe. Although the Bamberg Prince-Bishopric itself did not directly participate in any major conflicts during this time, the ruler would have been aware of the escalating tensions and the subsequent Napoleonic Wars that followed, reshaping the continent. However, it is important to note that Franz Ludwig von Erthal's reign ended in 1802, before the major battles of the Napoleonic Wars took place.
