This edition contains the surviving sources on the Reichstage held in Worms in 1513 and Mainz in 1517, the 1514 judicial review of the Imperial Chamber of Justice, and the first Reich district assemblies of 1515 and 1517. At the center of the negotiations were above all efforts to resolve numerous conflicts between the estates, which made the Reichstag the Reich's central peacekeeping entity.
