Sayn-Wittgenstein-Ludwigsburg

Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg-Ludwigsburg, also known as Sayn-Wittgenstein-Ludwigsburg, was a cadet branch of the Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg family. It was created by Graf Casimir zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg (1687–1741, ruled 1694–1741) for his brother, Ludwig Francis (1694–1750). Its seat was Ludwigsburg, a spectacular two-winged house in Berleburg built by the master carpenter Mannus Riedesel.

The branch had no territorial holdings of its own and as such had no independent standing in the German Empire. Later generations flourished as officers for the Czar of Russia.[1] With the revolutions and wars of the 20th century, descendants were dispersed throughout Europe and North America.

gollark: You are wrong. Anyway, the manifests are effectively just two lines of deterministic JSON (i.e. JSON with all keys sorted and no whitespace, so it'll always hash the same way).
gollark: Eventually I could even start signing the manifests so that you could safely download potatOS from *anywhere* and verify that it's the right thing easily.
gollark: So if it detects a new manifest, it can check the hashes of all stored files, redownload the changed ones, and verify them against the manifest.
gollark: Instead of just having potatOS ping pastebin every five minutes to check for new versions of the main code, it will be able to look for a manifest containing SHA256 hashes of all the files and also cryptographic signatures.
gollark: So I'm making a new updates system which will be able to allow "delta updates" and even cryptographic verification.
