 Bavaria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bavaria has long been a bastion of conservative politics in Germany, with the Christian Social Union having almost a stranglehold on power since its inception in 1946.
Bavaria became a kingdom in 1806, and in 1815 the Rhenish Palatinate was annexed to it.
Bavaria managed to preserve its independence by playing off the rivalries of Prussia and Austria, but defeat in the 1866 Austro-Prussian War led to its incorporation into the German Empire in 1871.

 List, The National System of Political Economy, Front Matter: Library of Economics and Liberty
List's habit of 'contradicting energetically' is no doubt to be ascribed largely to the fact that he was engaged for the greater part of his life in political agitation.
List maintains that in the early years of the nineteenth century England had obtained the manufacturing and commercial supremacy of the world to such a degree that all the other nations were in danger of becoming mere providers of food and raw materials in return for her manufactures.
List goes on to show that by this English method of dealing with gluts the whole manufacturing power, the system of credit, nay, the agriculture and generally the whole economical system of the nations who are placed in free competition with England, are shaken to their foundations.

A list of geographical names in the rulers' titles was not always a list of their actual possessions.
The name was listed in the house's title even if it officially recognized that the territory belonged to another state, (e.g., Holstein of the Russian Imperial House, Savoy of the Italian Royal House, Lorraine and Habsburg of the Austrian Imperial House, Nassau and Orange of the Royal House of the Netherlans etc.).
In some cases, when a territory had a special importance it could be listed before the other names in its group or even before the names associated with a higher rank in the hierarchy of titles.

When Maximilian III Joseph of Bavaria died in 1777, Karl Theodor became Duke of Bavaria and moved to Munich.
Karl Theodor never became established as a ruler in Bavaria; in the following years, he constantly tried without success to exchange the dukeship of Bavaria for the Austrian Netherlands, and he never managed to control the mounting social tensions in Bavaria.
When the revolutionary armies of France invaded the Palatinate in 1795 and proceded towards Bavaria in 1796, Karl Theodor fled to Saxony and begged Joseph II for help which in essence made Bavaria a puppet state of Austria.

Those surnames are found in common with Zellhofer in locations within Austria, Bavaria, and finally, all three are found later, all together in sparsely populated Door County, Wisconsin, U.S.A. While not yet proven, it appears that all have common origins, and we seem to be getting closer to finding those connections.
In the early 1600's apparently the rulers of Austria were in cahoots with the Pope of Rome, and return to Catholicism became the order of the day.

 Guide and Index to Lists of Rulers
One motivation is that history is often not taught anymore in terms of dynasties and rulers, since this is thought (by an academic elite comfortably supported by the taxpayers) to be too elitist and too removed from the life of the people.
A skeleton for history of rulers, with maps and genealogies, provides a perspective of time and space, and on real individuals whom we know about, that is otherwise hard to obtain.
The arrangement of these lists thus follows Bryce's principle of universalist ideology, centering on Rome but extending to similar to ideas outside of the Roman world.
