Louis II the German 

Born circa 804; died Aug. 28, 876, in Frankfurt am Main. King from 843 of the kingdom of the East Franks; founder of the German branch of the Carolingians. Son of Louis the Pious.

By the first repartition of the empire (817), Louis II received Bavaria; by the Treaty of Verdun (843) he received the German regions east of the Rhine, and by the Treaty of Mersen (870), eastern Lorraine.
