| | Landtag - Psychology Central |
| | In constitutive states of the Federal Republic of Germany and Austria, and in Italy's autonomous (ethnically largely Germanic) South Tyrol, a Landtag is a unicameral legislature for a federal land. | | | As Austria and Prussia escaped the French 'exporting the revolution', and Napoleon was happy to maintain satellite monarchies in most German territories under his control (members of the Confederation of the Rhine), the more democratic principles of the Enlightenment would have less effect in the German-speaking lands, or only much later. | | | The precise composition obviously varied greatly, and could change over time, as the result of privileges granted or lost, entities split or merged, border changes etcetera. |

| | German vs. Dane |
| | Intended to encompass the whole of the Germanic peoples, the Confederation included non-Germanic minorities such as the Czechs in Bohemia and Moravia and the Slovenes in the Steiermark, yet excluded the ethnic Germans in West and East Prussia, Posen, and Schleswig because they had not been a part of the former Holy Roman Empire. | | | Immediately the larger German kingdoms set about the creation of a revised Holy Roman Empire, which was called the German Confederation, enacted in 1815 essentially as a defensive compact rather than as a means to German cultural unity (Carr, History of Germany 3). | | | As a group they had no political significance, they did not share in German or Danish culture, the Helstat barely knew of their existence, and they were probably the one group in all of Schleswig-Holstein least affected by the political newspapers. |
