The Great Interregnum ends with the unanimous election of Rudolph I of Habsburg, a minor pro-Staufen count, as German king at Frankfurt.

A son of Austria’s Albert IV, Count of Habsburg, Rudolph cements his conquest of the ambitious Ottokar of Bohemia through strategic marriage contracts for his children, and grants his son Albrecht (Albert) the duchies of Austria and Styria, making these possessions hereditary fiefs that will constitute the territorial nucleus of the future Habsburg power.
