The Teutonic Order ceased to exist as a territory in 1525, but the Livonian Order continued to exist without them as part of the Livonian Confederation (formed 1435) until 1561. They fought wars independently of each other (the Livonian Order participating in the Lithuanian Civil War after Teutonic Order ceased hostilities, the Teutonic Order faced a revolt after Grunwald unaided by the Livonians, etc.) (read page 64 of this "long-ass" article) The pope gave full rights for the Teutons to incorporate "the order of the brothers of the sword" and the ruler did go to Livonia and fulfilled the pope's command. The Livonian Confederation was a loosely organized confederation in present day Estonia and Latvia ruled by the Order of Teutonic Knights of Livonia which existed from 1228 to the 1560s. (not a primary source but at least better than Wikipedia ) For the line "The Livonian Order managed to maintain an independent existence as it didn't participate in the battle and suffered no casualties." This is no sources supporting this. This game starts in 1444 so the map is not relevant. The image that is next to the Livonian Confederation depicts Livonia in 16th century. Looking at the map shouldn't "Samogitia" be part of the Teutons at the start * ![]()
