Because the <a href="/wiki/Duchy_of_Swabia" title="Duchy of Swabia">Duchy of Swabia</a> lost its duke in 1268 and was never restored, all vassals of the duchy became immediate vassals of the Imperial Throne (as has happened in much of Westphalia when the duchy of Saxons was divided and partially dissolved in aftermath of the defeat of <a href="/wiki/Henry_the_Lion" title="Henry the Lion">Henry the Lion</a>).

The 15th century brought three wars and some devastation. Centuries later, <a href="/wiki/Carl_Alexander_Heideloff" title="Carl Alexander Heideloff">Carl Alexander Heideloff</a> was the one who built the Lichtenstein Castle (with the help of peasants). But the 17th century was a lowpoint, with some plague, some skirmishing from the struggles of the <a href="/wiki/Thirty_Years%27_War" title="Thirty Years&#39; War">Thirty Years' War</a> but most of all from a <a href="/wiki/Witch_hunt" title="Witch hunt">witch hunt</a>, in which more than 100 persons were persecuted and executed. </p><p>The Principality takes its name from the Liechtenstein family, rather than vice versa, and the family in turn takes its name from <a href="/wiki/Liechtenstein_Castle" class="mw-redirect" title="Liechtenstein Castle">Liechtenstein Castle</a> in <a href="/wiki/Lower_Austria" title="Lower Austria">Lower Austria</a>, which it owned from at least 1140 until the 13th century and from 1807 onwards.

Thus, without holding any land directly under the <a href="/wiki/Holy_Roman_Emperor" title="Holy Roman Emperor">Holy Roman Emperors</a>, the Liechtenstein dynasty was unable to meet the primary requirement to qualify for a seat in the <a href="/wiki/Imperial_Diet_(Holy_Roman_Empire)" title="Imperial Diet (Holy Roman Empire)">Imperial Diet</a>, (German <i>Reichstag</i>), although its head was elevated to princely rank in the late 17th century. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_modern_era">Early modern era</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=History_of_Liechtenstein&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: Early modern era"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The area that was to become Liechtenstein was invaded by both <a href="/wiki/Austrian_Empire" title="Austrian Empire">Austrian</a> and <a href="/wiki/Sweden" title="Sweden">Swedish</a> troops during the <a href="/wiki/Thirty_Years%27_War" title="Thirty Years&#39; War">Thirty Years' War</a> of 1618–1648.<sup id="cite_ref-:10_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:10-6"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> During the 17th century the country was afflicted by a <a href="/wiki/Plague_(disease)" title="Plague (disease)">plague</a> and also by the <a href="/wiki/Liechtenstein_witch_trials" title="Liechtenstein witch trials">Liechtenstein witch trials</a>, in which more than 100 people were persecuted and executed. </p><p>Prince <a href="/wiki/Johann_Adam_Andreas_of_Liechtenstein" class="mw-redirect" title="Johann Adam Andreas of Liechtenstein">Johann Adam Andreas of Liechtenstein</a> bought the domain of <a href="/wiki/Schellenberg" title="Schellenberg">Schellenberg</a> in 1699 and the county of <a href="/wiki/Vaduz" title="Vaduz">Vaduz</a> in 1712.

Thus, the prince was barred from entry to the Council of Princes and the prestige and influence that would entail. </p><p>By acquiring the Lordships of Schellenberg and Vaduz, modest areas of mountain villages each of which was directly subordinate to the Emperor because there no longer being a <a href="/wiki/Duke_of_Swabia" title="Duke of Swabia">Duke of Swabia</a>, the Prince of Liechtenstein achieved his goal.
