Saxony
Saxon noble rulers played a very important role in western
Europe. The Electorate was a part of "The Holy Roman
Empire". A favourable geographical position at the crossing of
trade routes made Saxony one of the richest states in Germany. It
possessed a good regular army of about 30,000 recruited soldiers. By
the year 1701, the Saxon army numbered 20 infantrymen, 7 cuirassier
detachments and 6 dragoon regiments.
