Grand Duchy of Oldenburg : ウィキペディア英語版 | Grand Duchy of Oldenburg
The Grand Duchy of Oldenburg (German: ''Großherzogtum Oldenburg'') (also known as Holstein-Oldenburg) was a Grand Duchy within the German Confederation, North German Confederation, and German Empire, which consisted of three widely separated territories: Oldenburg, Eutin and Birkenfeld. It ranked tenth among the German states and had one vote in the Bundesrat of Germany and three members in the Reichstag. ==History==
The bulk of the Duchy's inhabitants were Saxons, but to the north and west there were also numerous descendants of the ancient Frisians. The differences between the two people were mostly perceptible, but Low German was universally spoken, except in Saterland, where the Saterland Frisian language had maintained itself. The population was somewhat unequally distributed — some parts of the marsh lands contained over 300 people per square mile, while in the geest the number occasionally sank as low as 40. About 70% of the inhabitants lived in rural areas. The harbor of Wilhelmshaven, on the shore of Jade Bight, was built by the Kingdom of Prussia on land ceded by the Jade Treaty.
