You might get some information through these links :http://www.country-data.com/cgi-bin/query/r-11111.html http://www.famoushistoricalevents.net/peace-westphalia/
I can tell you generally speaking that the Treaty of Westphalia solidified Protestantism (and Protestant powers) in Europe, which I think was the most significant thing about it.
Transylvania was not a signatory to the Treaty of Westphalia. At that time Transylvania was part of the Holy Roman and Russian Empires and so had no legal standing except as subject territories.

Transylvania was not a signatory of the Treaty – that's true.

Not even partially true.Principality of Transylvania signed Treaty of Linz in 1645. Transylvania under gabor Bethlen and Georg I was fighting fiercely with Austria since 1618 when Bethlen moved it's armies to Austrian Hungary to aid anti-habsburg rebels.Transylvania was independent state under superior power of Turkish sultan. The sultan stopped Transylvanian armies in 1645 and forced the principality to sign the peace treaty.
Does anybody know something about Transylvania's involvement in the Peace of Westphalia?
I think it requires a specific book. Transylvanian matters might have been discussed at that gathering but I don't know any source on this subject.

I stand corrected. Thanks for the clarification. I did not do my homework like I should have before answering.

This is an inappropriate post Smardz. Don't do it again.

Echo Donnie's comment above.A further question of where that came from? I guess I touched a nerve?I know just a litte bit about the Peace of Westphalia, I dont claim to be an expert on the history of minor European states though. I thought an apology and acknowledgement of error would be enough.
This is just a forum. However rules of good maners, civility, politeness, accuracy, relevance, reliability and (to me the most important one) humility should always prevail.But well, I'm just a newbie here.

So do I. I don't what what prompted the response, but IMHO it was totally lacking in good maners (sic.), civility, politeness…
