Imperial Diet

Examples of Imperial Diet in the following topics:

• Administration of the Empire

  • The Imperial Diet as a legislative organ of the empire did not exist at that time.
  • The Imperial Diet (Reichstag) was the legislative body of the Holy Roman Empire and theoretically superior to the emperor himself.
  • The precise role and function of the Imperial Diet changed over the centuries, as did the empire itself, in that the estates and separate territories gained more and more control of their own affairs at the expense of imperial power.
  • A prospective emperor first had to be elected King of the Romans by the prince-electors, the highest office of the Imperial Diet.

  • The power taken by Ferdinand III in contravention of the Holy Roman Empire's constitution was stripped and returned to the rulers of the Imperial States.
  • Sweden received Western Pomerania, Wismar, and the Prince-Bishoprics of Bremen and Verden as hereditary fiefs, thus gaining a seat and vote in the Imperial Diet of the Holy Roman Empire.
  • After the Peace of Westphalia, each prince of a given Imperial State would have the right to determine the religion of his own state, the options being Catholicism, Lutheranism, and Calvinism.

• Frederick the Great

  • The king briefly threatened the crown prince with the death penalty, then considered forcing Frederick to renounce the succession in favor of his brother, Augustus William, although either option would have been difficult to justify to the Imperial Diet of the Holy Roman Empire.

• Cardinal Mazarin and the Fronde

  • The terms of the peace treaties  ensured Dutch independence from Spain, awarded some autonomy to the various German princes of the Holy Roman Empire, and granted Sweden seats on the Imperial Diet and territories to control the mouths of the Oder, Elbe, and Weser rivers.

  • It turned out that 0.79 of the people who followed the AHA diet and 0.90 of those who followed the Mediterranean diet were healthy.
  • How is the effect size of diet best measured?
  • We will take the perspective that we are assessing the benefits of switching from the AHA diet to the Mediterranean diet.
  • Therefore, the odds of being healthy on the Mediterranean diet is 2.39 times the odds of being healthy on the AHA diet.
  • In our example, being treated means changing from the AHA diet to the Mediterranean diet.
