Condominia between Ottonian-Nassuvian and Wittgensteinian countries

Prior to 1799, the territory known as Freier Grund was a condominium between an Ottonian Nassuvian country and a Sayn-Wittgensteinian country. It was broken into two Vogteien—Burbach, for which the Nassuvian country selected a judge; and Neunkirchen, for which the Sayn-Wittgensteinian country appointed the judge. When constructing simplified country names, I place the country selecting the judge first and other country second (separated by a “\”). The nation assignment (Nassuvian or Wittgensteinian) is that of the first-named country. After 1799, Sayn-Hachenburg dropped out of the condominium and the non-Ottonian partner became Saarbrücken-Weilburg—a Walmerian country.
