Comments

Frederick IV, nicknamed "The Pacific", was titular margrave of Misnie and landgrave of Thuringia from 1406 until his death.
He should not be confused with Frederick IV, known as "The Bellicose", co-margrave of Misnie from 1381 to 1428, then Elector of Saxony and Count Palatine of Saxony from 1423 to 1428.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Frédéric IV, surnommé « le Pacifique » fut margrave titulaire de Misnie et landgrave de Thuringe de 1406 à sa mort.
Il ne doit pas être confondu avec Frédéric IV dit « Le Belliqueux », co-margrave de Misnie de 1381 à 1428, puis électeur de Saxe et comte palatin de Saxe de 1423 à 1428.
