Publisher description
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Hephaestus Books represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Hephaestus Books continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. This particular book is a collaboration focused on Swiss nobility.
More info: Switzerland having the characteristic to be a confederation of states of which each one has its own history, we can't speak about " Swiss nobility " in the singular but " Swiss nobilities " in the plural. Also remind that the concept of nobility or noble class postulates the existence of a hierarchical society recognising the principle of the heredity of a function or social status In the Middle Ages we also find in the various Swiss cantons only families of feudal nobility and some ennobled families abroad. We found through Switzerland a great number of families of dynastes who were vassals of the Holy Roman Empire, of the house of Savoy or of the Kingdom of Burgundy. This diversity prevented the birth of a state with monarchical central authority
