[edit] The Pope
From Orange Order#International effects:
- was seen as the first proper victory in battle for the League of Augsburg, the first ever alliance between Catholic & Protestant countries. William's victory was celebrated in Rome by Pope Innocent XI who ordered the singing of Te Deums in the city's major Catholic churches
Were the Papal States a part of the league?

[edit] Members
If the Holy Roman Empire was a member, wouldn't that include all of its territories by default? If so, why are some of them listed individually in the first paragraph? Wikipeditor 22:40, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
- No, it wouldn't. Lower princes were obliged to defend the Reichsfriede, but often didn't or even sided with the enemy. The Empire was not some modern unitary nation state; it was more like a supranational entity. You could compare it with a NATO operation; it would still be useful to list the actual participants.--MWAK 17:48, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
