  Brandenburg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brandenburg is bordered by Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in the north, Poland in the east, Saxony in the south, Saxony-Anhalt in the west, and Lower Saxony in the northwest.
Brandenburg was one of the German states to convert in 1539 to Protestantism in the wake of the Protestant Reformation, and generally did quite well in the century following, as the dynasty expanded its lands to include the Duchy of Prussia in 1618 and, along the lower Rhine, the Duchy of Cleves (1614) and elsewhere.
Brandenburg was still the most important portion of the kingdom (and the state was often referred to informally as Brandenburg-Prussia) but for the purposes of accuracy, the continuation of this history can be found at Kingdom of Prussia.

 Jim Brandenburg
Brandenburg took his first photograph at age fourteen, then further developed his photographic skills and style while majoring in art at the University of Minnesota.
Brandenburg was twice named Magazine Photographer of the Year by the National Press Photographer's Association (regarded as the "Oscar" for the industry), and in 1988, he was named Wildlife Photographer of the Year by the British Museum of Natural History and the BBC, sponsored by Kodak.
Today, the force that continues to fuel Brandenburg's photography is his ever-deepening fascination with the wolf, a romance he pursues daily from his rural Northern Minnesota home near the Canadian border, also home territory for the Gray, or, as it is also called, the Timber Wolf.
