[2] The conclusion of the peace treaty known as the "Zweite (Kappeler) Landfrieden" between the Five Catholic Swiss Cantons and Zürich on 1531-11-20, followed by the treaties with Bern (1531-11-24), Basel (1531-12-22) and Schaffhausen (1532-01-31) that marked the end of the Second War of Kappel between the Roman Catholic and the Protestant Swiss cantons in 1531. This treaty determined the religious relations within the Swiss Confederacy for the subequent centuries; cf. cf.

[5] The marriage between Sibylle of Bavaria, Electress Palatine of the Rhine, and Ludwig V von der Pfalz, Elector Palatine, remained childless.

[6] Between 1516 and 1545 Bavaria was ruled in co-regency by Duke Wilhelm IV (13 November 1493 – 7 March 1550) and his younger brother Ludwig X (Grünwald, 18 September 1495 - Landshut, 22 April 1545).

[7] The territories of Wild- und Rheingraf Johann Philipp VI zu Dhaun zu Salm (1470-1499) were divided in 1520 between his sons Philipp, to whom went the Wild- und Rheingrafschaft, and Johann. When Philipp zu Salm zu Dhaun (8 Sep 1492 - 27 Aug 1521) died, he was succeeded by his son Philipp Franz von Dhaun und Neufviller (4 Aug 1518 - 28 Jan 1561). After the death of his uncle Johann VII von Salm-Kyrburg (1493 - 11 Dec 1531) the territories were reunited under Philipp Franz (cf. Konrad Schneider, Geschichte des Wild- und Rheingräflichen Hauses, Volkes und Landes auf dem Hunsrücken, Kreuznach, 1834 SCHNEIDERcf. Konrad Schneider, Geschichte des Wild- und Rheingräflichen Hauses, Volkes und Landes auf dem Hunsrücken, Kreuznach, 1834 , p. 133-153).

[8] According to their age, the “son of the Rheingraf” meant here is probably a son of either Philipp zu Salm zu Dhaun, viz. Philipp Franz von Salm Daun (*1518 – †1561), succeeded to his father Philipp in 1521 as Wild- & Rheingraf in Dhaun & Neuviller-sur-MosellePhilipp FranzPhilipp Franz von Salm Daun (*1518 – †1561), succeeded to his father Philipp in 1521 as Wild- & Rheingraf in Dhaun & Neuviller-sur-Moselle, or his brother Johann Philipp I von Dhaun (31 Mar 1520 - 10 Sep 1566). Ludwig X had no male offspring. The sons of Wilhelm IV were Theodor (1526-1534) and Albrecht V of Bavaria (1528-1579).
