Treaty of Hamburg (1701)
The
Treaty of Hamburg
(German -
Hamburger Vergleich
or
Hamburger Erbvergleich
) was a dynastic
house law
of the
House of Mecklenburg
. Heavily influenced by representatives of the
Lower Saxon Circle
, it was agreed on 8 March 1701 in neutral
Hamburg
. It ended the dispute over the inheritance of the
Mecklenburg-Güstrow
caused by the death of
Gustav Adolph, Duke of Mecklenburg-Güstrow
without a male successor in 1695 and established the semi-ducal principalities of
Mecklenburg-Strelitz
and
Mecklenburg-Schwerin
.
