<p> | <p> The last Grandmaster of the Teutonic knights, who being "religious in an eminent degree and shaken in his belief" took zealously to [[Protestantism]] and came under the influence of Luther, who advised him to declare himself Duke of Prussia, under the wing of [[Sigismund]] of Poland, in defiance of the Teutonic order as no longer worthy of bed and board on the earth, and so doing, became founder of the Prussian State (1490-1568). </p> | ||
