Berg (sh) and reducible (medicine)


Berg (sh)




Former duchy, Holy Roman Empire.

Located on the Rhine River, the area now lies in the districts of Dusseldorf and Cologne, Germany. In the 11th century the counts of Berg acquired Westphalian lands east of Cologne; these were incorporated into a duchy in 1380. Berg became a leading iron and textile manufacturing centre in the 17th-18th centuries. In 1806 Napoleon made it a grand duchy in his Confederation of the Rhine. Following the Congress of Vienna in 1814-15, it became part of Prussia.
