The marriage lasted only eight months, until Emmanuel's death on 8 November. Three months pregnant at the time of her husband's death, Anna Eleonore was named regent of the Principality of Anhalt-Köthen until the birth of her child: if was a boy, he immediately became the new Prince and she kept the regency, but if she gave birth a girl, the other Anhalt principalities would divided Köthen between them. On 20 May 1671, Anna Eleonore gave birth a son, Emmanuel Lebrecht who became in the new Prince. Anna Eleonore remained a regent until her death. Anna Eleonore died in Köthen aged 38. She was buried next to her husband at St. Jakob, Köthen.〔(''STOLBERG-WERNIGERODE'' in: royaltyguide.nl ) (19 March 2015 ).〕 Because her son was still underage, John George II, Prince of Anhalt-Dessau succeeded her in the regency until 1692, when Emmanuel Lebrecht finally attained his majority and began his independent government. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anna Eleonore of Stolberg-Wernigerode」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
