Rudolf IV der Stifter ("the Founder") (November 1, 1339 – July 27, 1365) was a scion of the
House of Habsburg and
Duke (self-proclaimed
Archduke) of
Austria and Duke of
Styria and
Carinthia from 1358, as well as Count of
Tyrol from 1363 and first Duke of
Carniola from 1364 until his death. After the Habsburgs got nothing from the decree of the
Golden Bull in 1356, he gave order to draw up the "
Privilegium Maius", a fake document to empower the Austrian rulers.
