Thereby, Kleve was a key factor in the settlement of the Hundred Years War.

	#-#In the Feud of Soest that lasted from 1444 to 1449 the westphalian town of Soest, which was then among the biggest and richest cities of Germany, backed by Cologne's old enemy, the Duke of Kleve, managed to maintain its liberty against the claims of Archbishop Dietrich of Cologne. Like many other territorial princes of his time, the archbishop tried to consolidate his rule and to extend it according to the principles of roman law against the resistance of the Westphalian cities. A great part of former episcopal authority had been granted to the westphalian towns by incompetent archbishops, or outright assumed by the town councils. Thereby, so argumented the council of Soest, it became part of the town's liberty charter. The archbishop's desire to recover his old rights therefore seemed to be an attack on Soest's very existance. The town opposed these policies by accepting the Duke of Kleve and Mark as its new overlord on June 5th 1444. Kleve had been struggling for hegemony in the region with the colonian archbishops for a long time, and they took this chance to win a useful ally. The Duke confirmed Soest's privileges and granted new ones to them. This sparked a feud between the Archbishop and the Duke, which soon turned into major war with Burgundy, Münster, Osnabrück, Paderborn, Lippstadt, Hohenstein, Hoya and Lippe supporting Kleve and Bavaria, Saxony, Nassau and Brandenburg on Cologne's side. At the peak of the conflict, both factions fielded over 100000 soldiers. The possessions of Kleve and Cologne were severely devastated and depopulated. The turning point was when a bohemian mercenary army recruited by the Archbishop failed to take Soest and Lippstadt in 1447. Johann of Kleve, the son of the Duke who led the klevian army, then managed to convince the Bohemians to stop fighting. The feud ended with the decision of Pope Nicolas in favour of Kleve in 1449 that both sides had agreed to accept at a congress in Maastricht.

When the conflict started, his father appointed him commander of the clevian troops and sent him to Soest with 2400 foot and 800 mounted soldiers. On the way, Johann occupied the city of Xanten and still arrived in Soest much faster than the archbishop of Cologne had expected. There he took Soest's oath of allegiance and started to prepare the defense of the Westphalian towns. In the feud, he used fire arms very efficiently, as the first military leader. Vauban and Clausewitz consider the Feud of Soest as the birth of artillery as an effective weapon. After the victories against Cologne's bohemian mercenaries at Soest and Lippstadt that were achieved with a great amount of artillery he was called the Lion of Lippstadt and Soest.

After her father prematurely died, Mary was only nineteen and Louis XI of France seized the opportunity to take possession of the duchy of Burgundy and also of Franche-Comté, Picardie and Artois. He justified his military intervention with the fact that these lands had always been fiefs to the French crown and that with Charles' death, the last member of the French Valois dynasty they had 'de facto', according to the salic law, reverted to France. But the choice of which prince should marry the duchess would be of particular importance for the future political and economical stability of Western Europe, so he urged Mary to accept his son, the Dauphin Charles, as husband, in order to secure the inheritance of the Low Countries for his descendants too, even by force of arms if necessary. Mary, however, distrusted Louis and declined any French support and offer of marriage but, in order to be recognized as legitimate ruler over the Low Countries and to get financial and military help of Flemish cities against the French aggression, she made so great concessions as to reduce the Burgundian states effectively to a sort of federation of provinces. Satisfied that the country was sufficiently weakened and disorganized, Louis XI ordered his army into Artois and Hainault, but the imminence of danger seemed to revive in the Burgundian provinces a spirit of loyalty towards the Valois heiress and arrangements were made for the marriage of Mary with Johann von Kleve-Mark, son of Duke Johann I der Kriegerische who would provide substantial diplomatic and military resources to withstand any French aggression.

The Zwickau Prophets and Thomas Müntzer were the very first Anabaptists of all time, though some scholars believe that similar doctrines can be found on John Wycliffe and Jan Hus. Anabaptists were distinguishable because of their belief that child baptism was a sin. Consequently they only baptized adults, believing that being a Christian had to be a mature thorough decision. Rejecting salvation only by faith such as Luther claimed (Romans 1.17), Anabaptists also believed a model life in Christ imitation was necessary to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. The first Anabaptist movements, such as that of Müntzer, were characterized by millenarist violence. Millenarism theologists claimed to have come to Earth to reform all customs and to prepare it for the imminent arrival of the Messiah. Münster was by 1530's was a multi-confessional city, and as such, many Anabaptists from all over Rhineland flocked to it. Among their leaders were Jan van Leyden, Bernard Knipperdolling, Bernard Rothmann and Jan Matthys. After installing communism and polygamy, Jan van Leyden was crowned King of Münster and invited Dutch and German Anabaptists to join the city.

The Count of Nevers-Rethel, originally a sidebranch of the Cleves ducal dynasty, and the Elector of Saxony considered themselves legitimate heirs by virtue of several treaties, and the Emperor, desiring to expand the Habsburgs' supply base near the rebellious Netherlands, declared both female succession and the treaties invalid and was about to confiscate the United Duchies as a lapsed fief. The protestant princes of Brandenburg and Palatinate-Neuburg however, encouraged by the Evangelic Union, France and the Netherlands, managed to agree on a common administration in order to fight off all other claimants. They proclaimed complete religious toleration for all Christian confessions in the Duchies and were acknowledged by the Estates in Jule 1609. A more permanent solution was to be agreed on later...

While in the United Duchies a woman could not succeed to the throne herself, succession through a female relative was possible. Hence the husbands of Johann Wilhelm's sisters claimed the inheritance. The protestant husband of the second sister Anna, Philipp Ludwig of Palatinate-Neuburg, who wanted the inheritance for his son Wolfgang Wilhelm, has managed to seize the Duchies with support from the Netherlands, France and the Evangelic Union. His claim is disputed by the Count of Nevers-Rethel, originally a sidebranch of the Cleves ducal dynasty, and the Elector of Saxony who consider themselves legitimate heirs by virtue of several ancient treaties, and the Emperor, desiring to expand the Habsburgs' supply base near the rebellious Netherlands, who declares both female succession and the treaties invalid and intends to confiscate the United Duchies as a lapsed fief.

In order to secure support for their cause, they both prepared religious conversions. While Ernst, the brother of the Elector who represented him in the Duchies, became reformed in 1610 and the Elector himself adapted Calvinism at the urge of his Dutch and Palatine allies in 1613, Wolfgang Wilhelm of Palatinate-Neuburg began secret negotiations with the Emperor and his Wittelsbach relatives in Bavaria and Cologne. He was eventually convinced to convert to Catholicism, first secretly in Munich in summer 1613 and openly on May 16th 1614 in Düsseldorf. These two conversions almost immediately caused the Dutch and Spanish, acting in the interest of their respective new coreligionists, to invade the Duchies. The stage was set for a huge religious war. Afraid of the consequences of such a conflict, Brandenburg and Palatinate-Neuburg concluded a tentative treaty of partition in the city of Xanten on November 14th 1614. Neuburg received Jülich and Berg, Brandenburg got Cleves, Mark and Ravensberg. Nevertheless, the succession was not finally settled until 1672, and even thereafter both of them continued to claim the whole inheritance.
