She was born between 840 and 850, the daughter of the Saxon count Liudolf (805/20–866), a progenitor of the Ottonian dynasty (Liudolfings), and his wife Oda of Billung (805/06–913).
Before 29 November 874, Liutgard married the Carolingian ruler Louis the Younger (830/835–882), second son of King Louis the German - whose first engagement with a daughter of the Frankish seneschal Adalard had been dissolved in 865 - at Aschaffenburg, Franconia. They had two children:
Liutgard was especially noted for her strong will and political ambition, a reliable supporter of her husband. She is seen as a driving force behind King Louis' struggle with the West Frankish king Charles the Bald around the possession of Lotharingia, culminating in the 876 Battle of Andernach and ending in the final acquisition of the Lotharingian realm by the 880 Treaty of Ribemont.
Saxony is the tenth-largest of Germany's sixteen states, with an area of 18,413 square kilometres (7,109sqmi), and the sixth most populous, with 4.3 million people.
Located in the middle of a large, formerly all German-speaking part of Europe, the history of the state of Saxony spans more than a millennium. It has been a medieval duchy, an electorate of the Holy Roman Empire, a kingdom, and twice a republic.
The area of the modern state of Saxony should not be confused with Old Saxony, the area inhabited by Saxons. Old Saxony corresponds approximately to the modern German states of Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and the Westphalian part of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Its capital is Magdeburg. Saxony-Anhalt covers an area of 20,447.7 square kilometres (7,894.9sqmi) and has a population of 2.34 million.
Saxony-Anhalt should not be confused with Saxony or Lower Saxony, also German states.
Geography
Saxony-Anhalt is one of 16 Bundesländer (see German:Bundesland) of Germany. It is located in the western part of eastern Germany. By size, it is the 8th largest state in Germany and by population, the 10th largest.
It borders four fellow Bundesländer: Lower Saxony to the north-west, Brandenburg to the north-east, Saxony to the south-east, and Thuringia to the south-west.
Saxony (Sachsen) is a region for quality wine in Germany located in the German federal state of Saxony. The region is sometimes referred to colloquially as the Elbtal (Elbe valley). The wine region covers 462 hectares (1,140 acres), which makes it Germany's third smallest region, just ahead of Mittelrhein and Hessische Bergstraße in size. It is situated along the Elbe river from the Pillnitz section of Dresden to the village of Diesbar-Seußlitz located north of Meissen. Together with the Saale-Unstrut wine region, Saxony is one of the northernmost wine regions in Europe and are the only two of Germany's 13 wine regions that are located in the former East Germany. After German reunification in 1990, the vineyard surface was expanded from 200 to 450 hectares with European Union subsidies, but in recent years the vineyard area has decreased.
History
The area of Saxony has a long winemaking tradition with evidence of viticulture in the region dating as far back as 1161 in Meissen.

The History of England: The Anglo-Saxon Invasion of Britain
The Migration Period shook Europe and formed the basis of modern countries known to us today. In particular, it significantly affected the British Isles. Since the 5th century AD tribes — Saxons, Jutes, Angles, Frisians — arrived actively from the continent. On the islands, they were opposed by the native inhabitants, the Britons, who were not welcoming the conquerors. The confrontation, which went down in history as the Anglo-Saxon Invasion, began.
Over several centuries of wars, new kingdoms rose, becoming the fundamentals, over which modern England with its counties will one day emerge.

Like a sculpture carved out of stone, the vision of a modern villa is here realized that abstracts and reinterprets classical rules: for an incomparable sense of living in the middle of nature.
In the most pleasant seclusion, undisturbed, "The Sculpture" is the most attractive retreat a hamburger inhabitant can imagine. Concrete, glass and steel - these are the three main materials that determine the characteristic appearance of this villa.
Surrounded by the elegance of the building's interior and exterior design as well as the peaceful forest, the owners of this property can concentrate on the desirable contents of life. The construction of the object leads to a pleasant level of privacy and security because it is closed to the street but open to the other side to the pool, whirlpool and forest to satisfy the natural urge for freedom.
The floor-to-ceeiling window fronts provide the living area with plenty of daylight and opening up the view into the green landscape. A highlight are the large steel blades that span the glass and connect the lower and upper levels. As soon as the day is over, the numerous elegant designer lamps provide the rooms with an atmospheric light, exquisite designer furniture and a very modern fireplace which creates irresistible coziness and warmth.
"The Sculpture" convince with originality. The property is not a modular house, but develop from a unique vision. With a mixture of "Bauhaus style" and brutalism, it exudes strength and defensiveness to the outside without losing its elegance, inward security, generosity and tranquility. It gives its owners a sublime feeling of freedom.

The Migration Period shook Europe and formed the basis of modern countries known to us today. In particular, it significantly affected the British Isles. Since the 5th century AD tribes — Saxons, Jutes, Angles, Frisians — arrived actively from the continent. On the islands, they were opposed by the native inhabitants, the Britons, who were not welcoming the conquerors. The confrontation, which went down in history as the Anglo-Saxon Invasion, began.
Over several centuries of wars, new kingdoms rose, becoming the fundamentals, over which modern England with its counties will one day emerge. The conquerors brought a new political system to the islands, along with a new religion — Christianity. It is from this period of the ancient history of England that the legends about King Arthur originate. Watch the video to get a grasp on the The Anglo-Saxon Invasion, also known as the Heptarchy.

She was born between 840 and 850, the daughter of the Saxon count Liudolf (805/20–866), a progenitor of the Ottonian dynasty (Liudolfings), and his wife Oda of Billung (805/06–913).
Before 29 November 874, Liutgard married the Carolingian ruler Louis the Younger (830/835–882), second son of King Louis the German - whose first engagement with a daughter of the Frankish seneschal Adalard had been dissolved in 865 - at Aschaffenburg, Franconia. They had two children:
Liutgard was especially noted for her strong will and political ambition, a reliable supporter of her husband. She is seen as a driving force behind King Louis' struggle with the West Frankish king Charles the Bald around the possession of Lotharingia, culminating in the 876 Battle of Andernach and ending in the final acquisition of the Lotharingian realm by the 880 Treaty of Ribemont.
