Margrave War, First

Years: 1449 - 1450

The First Margrave War (German: Erster Markgrafenkrieg) from 1449–50 is the result of disputes between the Imperial City of Nuremberg and Albert III Achilles, margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach.

Numerous towns in Franconia in modern Germany are badly affected by the war.

"Remember that the people you are following didn’t know the end of their own story. So they were going forward day by day, pushed and jostled by circumstances, doing the best they could, but walking in the dark, essentially."

—Hilary Mantel, AP interview (2009)
