Talk:Christopher Memminger

Born in defunct country?
Memminger was born in the Holy Roman Empire in 1803, then the HRE was abolished in 1806. But was that really a country ceasing to exist, or a mere name change? The Austrian Empire kept most of its territory during those years and was still ruled by Franz von Hapsburg. I don't know whether CM fits the BiDC profile.JonathanMarkoff (talk) 05:33, December 17, 2017 (UTC)
