Landesteil Walkenried

The Abbacy of Walkenried was independent until 1578, when it was acquired by the County of Hohnstein. From then on, I regard Walkenried proper and any external territories (such as Schauen) collectively as a “Landesteil” of whatever country it was part of (after 1593, Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel). That maintains the ongoing link between Walkenried proper and its external territories, while leaving room for them to be recognized as distinct Ämter.
