Bavaria-Ingolstadt ( German : Bayern-Ingolstadt or Oberbayern-Ingolstadt ) was a duchy which was part of the Holy Roman Empire from 1392 to 1447. [1]
History
After the death of Stephen II in 1375, his sons Stephen III , Frederick , and John II jointly ruled Bavaria-Landshut . After seventeen years, the brothers decided to formally divide their inheritance. John received Bavaria-Munich , Stephen received Bavaria-Ingolstadt, while Frederick kept what remained of Bavaria-Landshut .
After Stephen's death in 1413, Louis VII assumed his father's throne. In 1429 parts of Bavaria-Straubing were united with Bavaria-Ingolstadt. Louis reigned until his own son, Louis VIII , usurped his throne in 1443 and delivered him to their enemy, Henry XVI , duke of Bavaria-Landshut . Louis VIII died two years later. Louis VII died in captivity. With no heir, Bavaria-Ingolstadt was returned to Bavaria-Landshut. [2]
