Ban loan

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ban loan is the transfer of the ban from the German king to others. It occurred from the 10th century.

The ban relates either to a closed district (city peace) or to accessories of a good. Such a right to ban can also only relate to particular rights and the compulsory force necessary for this (e.g. bans for the castle (call for service), ban for forestry, ban for trade).

Bann initially refers to the right of the authorities, in particular the king ( royal ban), to command and forbid (ban power ). Then ban means the punishment that occurs when the ban is violated; finally, the area of ​​this violence (spell district, dominion district). Depending on the area of ​​activity, a distinction is made between different individual bans, usually three: peace ban, administrative ban, ordinance ban.
