The Nassau Family Pact was a mutual pact of inheritance and succession made in 1783 by princes of the House of Nassau. It confirmed that Salic Law was to operate in favor of all the agnatic lines of the family, specifically the two senior surviving lines which had originated in the Middle Ages, the Walramian and the Ottonian. The pact chiefly provided that in case of one of these lines becoming extinct, the other would succeed in its hereditary Nassau lands ("the main concept of the pact was that if either the Ottonian or Walramian male line would become extinct the other line would succeed").

  • The Nassau Family Pact was a mutual pact of inheritance and succession made in 1783 by princes of the House of Nassau. It confirmed that Salic Law was to operate in favor of all the agnatic lines of the family, specifically the two senior surviving lines which had originated in the Middle Ages, the Walramian and the Ottonian. The pact chiefly provided that in case of one of these lines becoming extinct, the other would succeed in its hereditary Nassau lands ("the main concept of the pact was that if either the Ottonian or Walramian male line would become extinct the other line would succeed"). There was a clause to provide for a so-called Semi-Salic continuation to the dynasty in an undefined way if both the lines were to die out in the male line ("also arranged for that in the absence of all male successors, females could succeed"). In case of the extinction of all male lines, the closest heir to the last male will succeed and in turn will be succeeded by the heirs of that closest one. If the closest heir happens to be a woman, the pact was silent about whether her husband receives rights or not. There was no precise stipulation as to what precisely was to happen after that closest heir: would the succession evolve to heirs general, or only to heirs male, and what would happen if that line also died out. The pact was agreed to be applied to "Imperial fiefs" which meant those territories owned or acquired in the then Holy Roman Empire. The pact thus in 1890 determined the succession of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, a territory acquired into the dynasty only after the pact was sealed, but in exchange for the handing of some of the Nassau-lands of the Ottonian branch to Prussia and that at the time became a member of the German Confederation, a body that was regarded as the successor to the Holy Roman Empire. The pact did not apply to the succession in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, a state not regarded as formerly imperial. Luxembourg was thus inherited by the Weilburg branch, the only extant branch from that date onward. In 1907, the Grand Duke of Luxembourg, William IV, head of the House of Nassau, determined that the branch of the Count of Merenberg was, as morganatic, incapable to succeed to the sovereignty of the House of Nassau. This effectively meant that the Grand Duke himself was then the only surviving agnate of the House. Having himself only daughters, he felt the need to organize the succession further and remedy some of the undefined points. In April 1907 the Grand Duke decreed (approved in July 1907 by legislature of Luxembourg and thereafter enacted) amendments to the house law of Nassau. The succession law thus amended governs the current succession in Luxembourg, and apparently the succession specifically provided by the pact itself is fulfilled and its impact is exhausted. Marie-Adélaïde succeeded according to the 1907 law, an outcome that was identical with the stipulations of the pact. Were any successions of the House of Nassau outside Luxembourg to need to be adjudicated afterwards, it is unclear what the pact would provide — whether a line identical with that of modern Luxembourg's, or different.

  • De Erneuerte Nassauische Erbverein (vernieuwde Nassause erfverdrag) is de verkorte naam die historici gebruiken voor het huisverdrag met de officiële naam Des Fürstlichen Gesamthauses Nassau im Jahre 1783 erneuerter Erbverein waarin alle meerderjarige mannelijke leden van het Huis Nassau onder andere de erfopvolging binnen hun familie regelden. Het verdrag is de opvolger van de Prima divisio uit 1255 en de alleen voor de Walramse Linie van het Huis Nassau geldende uit 1736. Het verdrag is nooit van toepassing geweest op de Nederlandse bezittingen van het Huis Oranje-Nassau of de troonopvolging in het koninkrijk der Nederlanden, maar is sinds 1815 wel van toepassing op de troonopvolging in het groothertogdom Luxemburg. Het verdrag werd in 2010 en 2011 gewijzigd. Die gewijzigde tekst werd in 2012 in de geconsolideerde tekst gepubliceerd. (nl)
  • Il patto di famiglia di Nassau (in tedesco:Nassauischer Erbverein) fu un patto ereditario e di successione sottoscritto nel 1783 dai principi sovrani dell'antica casata di Nassau. L'accordo confermò l'uso della legge salica su tutte le linee della famiglia, in particolare nelle due linee sopravvissute dall'epoca medievale, i valderamici e gli ottoniani. Il patto in particolare prevedeva che in caso di estinzione di una di queste due linee, l'altra gli sarebbe succeduta nelle terre ereditarie dei Nassau. La legge semisalica sarebbe entrata in vigore nel caso dell'estinzione per via maschile di una delle due casate. In caso di estinzione di entrambe le casate, gli sarebbe dovuto succedere l'erede più prossimo. Se l'erede più prossimo fosse stata una donna, il patto non riportava se tali diritti dovessero spettare alla diretta interessata o al marito di questa. In questo senso il patto fu determinante per la successione al Granducato del Lussemburgo nel 1890, in quanto tale territorio rientrava nei territori considerati "imperiali", ovvero ex membri del Sacro Romano Impero. Il trattato infatti non interessò il regno dei Paesi Bassi, uno stato che non era "imperiale". Il Lussemburgo venne ereditato dalla linea di Nassau-Weilburg. Nel 1907, il granduca Guglielmo IV del Lussemburgo, in qualità di capo della casata di Nassau, dichiarò che la linea dei conti di Merenberg era da considerarsi morganatica e quindi incapace di succedere al trono. Questo rese il granduca stesso l'unico rappresentante della casata. Avendo però egli avuto una sola figlia femmina, dovette riorganizzare la successione. Nell'aprile del 1907 un decreto del granduca (approvato dal parlamento nel luglio del 1907), emendò le leggi della casa di Nassau. Maria Adelaide fu pertanto in grado di succedergli sulla base di queste modifiche al patto stipulato. (it)
