MONFERRATO
Originally a county, it was elevated to a margravate of the Holy Roman Empire under Count Aleramo in 961. Montferrato was raised to a Duchy by Maximilian II, Holy Roman Emperor. With the War of the Mantuan Succession (1628–1631) a piece of the duchy passed to the Duchy of Savoy, the remainder passing to Savoy in 1708, as Leopold I, Holy Roman Emperor gained possession of the Gonzaga territory. With Savoy it became part of Italy.
