Established in 1806, the Confederation Of The Rhine was a collection of territories located in what is now Germany. While some of these territories were creations of the French Empire, many more were monarchies that had been in existence for many years, although many of these were expanded or merged under Napoleon's influence. It initially consisted (July 1806) of the following states:

French Client States

Batavian Republic/Kingdom Of Holland

Confederation Of The Rhine

Established in 1806, the Confederation Of The Rhine was a collection of territories located in what is now Germany. While some of these territories were creations of the French Empire, many more were monarchies that had been in existence for many years, although many of these were expanded or merged under Napoleon's influence. It initially consisted (July 1806) of the following states:

  • Duchy Of Arenburg
  • Grand Duchy Of Baden
  • Kingdom Of Bavaria
  • Grand Duchy Of Berg
  • Duchy Of Nassau (Union of Nassau-Usingen & Nassau-Weilburg)
  • Grand Duchy Of Hesse-Darmstadt

  • Principality Of Isenburg-Birstein
  • Principality Of Leyen
  • Principality Of Liechtenstein
  • Principality Of Regensburg
  • Principality Of Salm

The Confederation expanded over the following years, as many of the smaller nations in the region were incorporated into it.

  • Duchy Of Anhalt-Kothen (Joined April 1807)

  • Duchy Of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (Joined March 1808)
  • Duchy Of Mecklenburg-Strelitz (Joined February 1808)
  • Duchy Of Oldenburg (Joined October 1808)
  • Principality Of Reuss-Ebersdorf (Joined April 1807)
  • Principality Of Reuss-Greiz (Joined April 1807)
  • Principality Of Reuss-Lobenstein (Joined April 1807)

  • Principality Of Schaumburg-Lippe (Joined April 1807)
  • Principality Of Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt (Joined April 1807)
  • Principality Of Schwarzburg-Sondershausen (Joined April 1807)
  • Principality Of Waldeck (Joined April 1807)
  • Kingdom Of Westphalia (French Creation; Joined 1807)
  • Grand Duchy Of Wurzburg (French Creation; Joined September 1806)

The borders changed several times over the years, as Napoleon either added or annexed lands to and from the various member states. The Duchy Of Oldenburg and the Principality Of Salm were ultimately annexed into the French Empire in December 1810.
