1713 King Frederick I of Prussia died. Although Frederick I did indeed die in 1713, I believe that legally he was not King OF Prussia, but only King IN Prussia. The title King OF Prussia was not used till 1772. I understand that law within the Holy Roman Empire (HRE) at the time did not allow for any kings, save Bohemia, of Germany and of the Romans, within the HRE. Frederick was allowed by the Emperor Leopold I to style himself as King in Prussia because his Prussian territories (as opposed to those of Brandenburg, etc.) were not part of the HRE. Frederick II - the Great - was the first to use the style King of Prussia.
