1489, not 1849...
The '''Imperial Diet''' was the assembly of the [[Holy Roman Empire]] from circa 1100 to 1806. After 1849 1489 the Diet was divided into three chambers or colleges.
Seven ''Electors'' (lay and ecclesiastical [[prince]]s) formed the electoral (first) college and were charged with electing a new [[emperor]]. The second college, also of princes, was composed of the other noble rulers, both lay and ecclesiastical. The third college represented delegates from the Imperial towns.
