	Margraviate of Brandenburg
		Initially, the Ascanians protected the country by settling knights in villages; castles fortified with knights were mostly located in the border region of the Neumark.
		The Ascanians pursued a policy of expanding to the east and the northeast with the goal of connecting their territories through Pomerania to the Baltic Sea.
		The middle of the 13th century was a time of important developments for the Ascanian House, as it won Stettin (Szczecin) and the Uckermark (1250), although the former was later lost to the Duchy of Pomerania.

	Anhalt-Askanien: History
		The history of the Ascanians starts some time around 1000, when members of the family of the Swabian (Suebi) BERINGER married members of the neighbouring Saxon dynasties, and took possession of the county of ASCHERSLEBEN.
		The Electors Bernhard, Rudolf and Albrecht of Saxony fought for Germany until the reign of this Ascanian line of the family ended after two young princes had died in 1422 after the collapse of a tower.
		Count Henry of Anhalt the Elder ("Heinrich der Ältere"), son of Elector Bernhard of Saxony, had inherited the old Ascanian counties, and in 1212 he was the first German regent to call himself "Prince" ("Fürst").

		Thereafter, the Slavs drove the Germans back, but from 1106, under Lothair, duke of Saxony (later German emperor), and Albert I the Bear, whom he made margrave of the North March (Nordmark) in 1134, German conquest, colonization, and Christianization of the region began in earnest.
		Its ruler was recognized as an imperial elector (a prince who participated in electing the Holy Roman emperor) by the mid-12th century, and this right was confirmed by the Golden Bull of the emperor Charles IV (1356).
		After the Brandenburg (senior) branch of the Ascanians became extinct in 1320, the electorate was beset by disunity.
