Mitteldithmarschen

After the Danes overthrew the Peasant Republic of Dithmarschen in 1559, the territory was divided along a north-south axis among the King, the Duke of Gottorp, and the Duke of Hadersleben. (The partition took nearly 10 years to finalize, but I apply it retroactively to 1559.) Mitteldithmarschen (which was not a formal name—merely a description of its location on the north-south axis) was awarded to the Duke of Hadersleben. After the Duke’s death, Mitteldithmarschen was repartitioned in 1581 between the King and the Duke of Gottorp by maintaining the same north-south concept used in the original partition.
