Note: In 1648, sovereignty of the United
Netherlands was recognized, and to 1795 the United
Netherlands were a confederation of sovereign provinces
(by official order of precedence: Gelderland, Holland,
Zeeland, Utrecht, Friesland, Overijssel, Stad en Lande
[Groningen]), plus the protected province of Drenthe not
represented in federal institutions. The provincial
authority was exercised by the provincial assemblies
(Estates, usually mistranslated as States) with elected
(from 1747 hereditary) Stadholders as chief executives.
Second only to the Stadholders were the chief officers
of the provincial Estates, such as Pensionaries in
Holland and Zeeland. Provincial sovereignty was not
formally abolished until the first constitution of the
Batavian Republic of 1798.

¹Despite the fact that the
style of Commissaris van de Koning/Koningin
(Commissioners of the King/Queen) was formally also
introduced in Limburg in 1850, the ancient style of
Governor continued - and still continues to be very
commonly used, even in official documents, partly
as a consequence of the special position of
Limburg in 1839-1867 and partly also as a Limburgian
particularism.

- Note: Until the French conquest the territory of the town was divided into four different administrations, acting independently of each other: (A) the Dutch fortress; (B) the City of Maastricht; (C) the Chapter of the Church of Sint Servaas; (D) the Chapter of the Church of Onze Lieve Vrouw: Church founded c.1000 (which was a dependency of the Prince-Bishop of Liège) - Territory: in the city - the Church, the surrounding streets and buildings. Outside the city - the village of Bemelen, Not part of the condominium; (E) The Lordship of Sint Pieter, the village - later (small) town - of Sint Pieter was a possession of the Prince-Bishops of Liège. In 1515/17 part of its territory was annexed to the city of Maastricht. But both parts of it (inside and outside the city walls) remained a separate polity until the French conquest, not part of the condominium; (F) and the Lordship and Court of Vroenhof (the villages of Wilre, Heukelom en Montenaken) given by the emperor to the Dukes of Brabant as a separate dependency in 1204. As the territory of the city of Maastricht expanded part of Vroenhof was included within its city walls between 1300-1350, like Sint Pieter it remained a separate polity until the French conquest, the part within the city walls however was under the supervision of the Brabant-Liège condominium. D to F had negligible territory and a full list of these rulers is currently unavailable.

(C) Chapter of the Church of Sint-Servaas
Note: The pieces of land ownership of the
Chapter of Sint-Servaas stretched from present-day North
Brabant and the area around Leuven to the Rhine, the
Moselle and the Ahr. The core area was in the current
Belgian province of Limburg, west of Maastricht. The
most important part of this core area was the so-called
Eleven banks of Saint Servatius, where the Chapter held
not only the land and the rights attached to it, but
also the judiciary over the inhabitants.
|
Saint Servatius |
(situated in the city of Maastricht) |
|
c.384
Church of Saint Servatius (Sanctus
Servatius/Sint-Servaas) founded
in
Maastricht after the death of Servatius (Aravatius),
bishop
of Tongeren.
c.480
Under direct government of the Frankish kings and
their
successors.
687/688
Episcopal seat moved to Liège by Saint Hubertus
(Hubert).
c.820
Sint Servaas mentioned as an
abbey of secular canons.
889 -
966
Bestowed to Bishop of Trier by the Holy Roman Emperor.
1087
Direct dependence on the German Emperor confirmed;
comprised two
kinds of territories with total area of around 10 sq km
(as of
1795):
the territories belonging to the Provosts (two bancs)
=
Tweebergen (situated in the city) with the Church, part
of the
roads
and the Convent of "de Beyard", and Mechelen-aan-de-Maas
(now in
Belgium). And territories belonging directly to the
Chapter
= Nine bancs (consisting of one or more villages
outside
the city
walls): Vleitingen (2.3 sq km) with Lafeld en Ellicht,
Heer
(1.4 sq km), Sleus, Koningsheim (1.4 sq km), Groot-Loon,
Zepperen, Hees en Keer, Berg (2 sq km) with Geulle en
Vilt, Bernau
(with
the exception of Heer and Berg all in Belgium now). Not
part
of the
above (B) condominium.
1204
The right of appointment of
the Provosts passed to the Duke of
Brabant.
1648/1661
Possessions of the Chapter omitted from transfers to the
United
Netherlands under the Peace of Münster of 1648 and the
Partition
Treaty of 1661.
1659
The right to appoint the
Provosts passed from the Duke of Brabant
to the Staten-Generaal of the United
Netherlands. Nevertheless,
the
Chapter maintained the immediacy of the Empire,
especially
for the Baronies of Heer and Berg (two enclaves just
east of
Maastricht), directly dependent on the Pope and the
Emperor and
independent of the Prince-bishop of Liège and the
Staten-Generaal.
1753
Possessions
declared as having already been part of the Generality
Lands by
the Staten-Generaal by their succession to the
Dukes of
Brabant
(that position was accepted by the Imperial Chamber
Court
[Reichskammergericht]). The canons of the
Sint-Servaas chapter
leave
communal life and began living independently.
4 Nov
1794
French occupation of Maastricht.
5 Dec
1797
The chapter and the deanery of Sint-Servaas are
