In 1777 Charles Theodore, the Duke of Bavaria, in a secret treaty with Joseph II, the Holy Roman emperor, ceded Lower Bavaria to Austria. The Bavarian heir apparent, advised by Frederick II of Prussia, protested the transfer. The resulting war, with no significant engagements, ended with Austria's renunciation of all but a small portion of Lower Bavaria.
