Diet of Worms Reforms Empire

1495

Maximilian I and the German princes agreed at Worms to a package of imperial reforms including a perpetual public peace and a supreme court. The reforms tried to stitch the Holy Roman Empire into something resembling a state. They partially succeeded, and the imperial framework they built would persist until Napoleon.
