By the Treaty of Pressburg of 1805, Ferdinand was made to give up Salzburg, which was annexed by his brother, the Emperor of Austria, and instead became Duke of Würzburg, a new state created for him from the old Bishopric of Würzburg. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Ferdinand_III,_Grand_Duke_of_Tuscany   (236 words)
