| | Maximilian I of Bavaria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Federal Act of the Vienna Congress was proclaimed in Bavaria, not as a law but as an international treaty. |  | | It was partly to secure popular support in his resistance to any interference of the federal diet in the internal affairs of Bavaria, partly to give unity to his somewhat heterogeneous territories, that Maximilian on May 26, 1818 granted a liberal constitution to his people. |  | | In the newly organized ministry Count Max Josef von Montgelas, who, after falling into disfavour with Charles Theodore, had acted for a time as Maximilian Joseph's private secretary, was the most potent influence, an influence wholly "enlightened" and French. |

 | | He was the son of zealous Catholic parents, William V, the Pious, of Bavaria, and Renate of Lorraine. |  | | The material benefits derived by Maximilian from his attitude in politics were meagre: the Electoral dignity, the office of Lord High Steward, and the Upper Palatinate. |  | | Under Tilly's leadership the Bohemian revolt was crushed at the battle of the White Mountain (Weissen Berg) near Prague, 8 November, 1620, and the newly elected King of Bohemia, Frederick V, forced to flee. |
