The article is clear that elevation to a principality came in 1792, but the German article[1] says "Der älteste, Georg, erbte den nördlichen Teil der Grafschaft Wittgenstein mit Sitz in Berleburg. Er begründete die Linie der Grafen und Fürsten zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg, die 1792 Reichsfürsten wurden" ambiguously implies that the county became a principality before 1792, when it became an imperial principality. Any clarity? Thanks. Spicemix (talk) 14:15, 9 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
