message: # The problem with this article is first it's not getting edited
# Secondly, geographic... the damn name started at the Rhine (see: description in Old Saxony--I've been looking for a good map of Germany to pin 'that' region down ever since!) and has gradually been drifting Eastwards until the current locale in Free State of Saxony/Kingdom of Saxony.
## A fair guess on that is a drift of 500 miles! (Boston to Pittburgh)
# Thirdly, political or historo-political concerns and topics are intricately blended with geographic due to the laws of inheritance in the old Holy Roman Empire and the later eventual German State.
# OTOH, as a survey article, it may have a place, but should focus then on the high points of the change and drift over time, their causes and effects, and leave the different geo-political coverages to the articles annoted already as main articles. Believe THAT is the best way to go. // FrankB 07:45, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

message: The number of the area ceded by the Kingdom of Saxony in the following sentence must be wrong: 
The Prussian Province of Saxony was formed in 1815 from the territories, about  in extent, ceded by the Kingdom of Saxony, with the addition of some districts already belonging to Prussia, the most important of which are the Altmark, from which the State of Prussia sprang; the former immediate principalities of the Archbishop of Magdeburg and of the Bishop of Halberstadt, which Prussia had received by the Peace of Westphalia (1648) at the close of the Thirty Years' War; and the Eichsfeld, with the city of Erfurt and its surroundings.
The entire province had an area of , where the Altmark, the principalities of the Archbishop of Magdeburg and of the Bishop of Halberstadt and the Eichsfeld already made roughly half of the territory.--Zarbi1 (talk) 18:48, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
