The Tyrol is a historical region in Western Central Europe, which includes the Austrian state of Tyrol (consisting of North Tyrol and East Tyrol) and the Italian regions known as the South Tyrol and Trentino.
The Tyrol, incorporated into the southern part of the Duchy of Bavaria during the Early Middle Ages, consisted largely of ecclesiastical holdings of the Bishops of Brixen and Trento.
Often glorified as the Tyrol's national hero, Andreas Hofer, the leader of the uprising, was executed in 1810 in Mantua, having lost a third and final battle against the French and Bavarian forces.

The Tyrol, originally the southern part of the Duchy of Bavaria during the early middle ages, consisted largely of ecclesiastical holdings of the Bishops of Brixen and Trento.
Over the centuries, the Counts residing in Castle Tyrol, near Meran, extended their territory over much of the region and came to surpass the power of the bishops, who were nominally their feudal lords, and later came to hold much of their territory directly from the Holy Roman Emperor.
Tyrol's independence came to an end in 1363, when countess Margarete Maultasch - lacking any descendants to succeed her - bequeathed it to the Austrian monarch, Duke Rudolf IV of Habsburg.
