Mediatized families
From Mises Wiki, the global repository of classical-liberal thought
Mediatized families are families of the princes and counts of the Holy Roman Empire who since the thirteenth century had step-by-step acquired a quasi-sovereign position in their territories and then were deprived of this quasi-sovereign position early in the nineteenth century. However, they retained their titles and certain minor privileges until the end of World War I. See "Standesherr"[1]
