Region/Country: Region/Land: Germany, Holy Roman Empire
Germany is chosen as a pragmatic term here, as the country known as Germany today did not exist in the 15th and 16th century. Instead there was a plethora of larger and smaller royalties, only formally ruled by a king or the (Holy Roman) emperor. However, documents often refers to German merchants or Germany as a geographical region. In this context, usually the Low German Sprachraum, roughly modern-day Northern Germany, is meant here.
