The Order's monarchlist, still in vanilla form, is messed up a bit - one grandmaster is missing and there are several spelling mistakes. Worst, however, is that it does not contain the historical grandmasters after Albrecht of Brandenburg and his secularization of the Teutonic Order's lands.
That's why I compiled an updated list. There are two remaining issues which should be discussed: First, while German sources give the names of certain grandmasters with the land of their origion (e.g. "of Brandenburg-Ansbach", "of Österreich"), other languages tend to use dynasties instead (e.g. "of Hohenzollern", "of Habsburg"). I think we could go either way, but it should be uniform. Second, the problem of Albrecht of Brandenburg-Ansbach/Hohenzollern. If a player decides not to secularize and stay as the order, Albrecht would not be deposed as grandmaster in 1525 and could - most likely - rule until his death in 1568. Therefore, two historical grandmasters between 1525 and 1568 have to be skipped from the list. I think this can not be avoided, as there was no reason for Albrecht to abdicate in 1525 if he chose not to convert to Protestantism.
So, finally, here is the list.

) fancies playing the Livonians until 1819. For this purpose, I collected some actual existing Baltic nobles and German members of the Teutonic Order from a genealogical handbook and Wikipedia - personalities of whom It's remotely possible they could have been members of the Order in an alternate history.
