Short Note 
War of succession between Bavaria and the Palatinate, on the death
of George, Duke of Bavaria-Landshut, over who should inherit his
title and lands. The Duke named his daughter Elizabeth his heir,
but this contravened an agreement he had made with the Duke of
Bavaria-Munich, and therefore war broke out between the claimants,
lasting until 1505.
