He reorganized the constitutional position of the Habsburg Netherlands ( 17 provinces ) within the structure of the Holy Roman Empire . The contract removes the direct dominions of Charles V, the Duchy of Geldern , the County of Zutphen , and the territories of the Hochstift Utrecht , Groningen , the Lordship of Overijssel and the County of Drenthe from the Lower Rhine-Westphalian Empire . These are added to the Burgundian Empire . The resulting new unity of the Burgundian hereditary lands of Charles V is withdrawn from the jurisdiction of the Imperial Court of Justice.
