===== Holy Roman Empire ===== At the [[Holy Roman Empire]]'s [[Diet of Worms (1495)|''Reichstag'' at Worms in 1495 AD]], the right of waging feuds was abolished. The [[Imperial Reform]] proclaimed an "eternal [[public peace]]" (''[[Ewiger Landfriede]]'') to put an end to the abounding feuds and the anarchy of the [[Robber baron (feudalism)|robber baron]]s, and it defined a new [[standing army|standing imperial army]] to enforce that peace. However, it took a few more decades until the new regulation was universally accepted.<!-- non-reliable source <ref>{{NNDB|id=399/000096111|name=Maximilian I|accessdate=2012-07-26}}</ref> -->{{citation needed|date=August 2015}} In 1506, for example, knight Jan Kopidlansky killed a family rival in [[Prague]], and the town councillors sentenced him to death and had him executed. His brother, Jiri Kopidlansky, declared a private war against the city of Prague.<ref>{{cite news |title=Krvavá msta Jiřího z Kopidlna |url=https://www.novinky.cz/historie/clanek/krvava-msta-jiriho-z-kopidlna-40387536 |work=Novinky.cz |date=6 March 2022 |language=Czech}}</ref> Another case was the [[Nuremberg v.
