COUNTS OF LEUVEN

The 'counts of Leuven' and 'counts of Brussels' were originally petty barons of the central region of Belgium.
They acquired great influence in the Holy Roman Empire and acquired more titles over time. In 1183, they were created Dukes of Brabant. The county of Leuven was absorbed into the duchy of Brabant.
