A Bishopric established c. 775, and located in southwest Switzerland. From 999 the Bishops were also Counts of Valais, and as such held temporal authority over that region until the Napoleonic era. Switzerland was detached completely from the Empire by 1648, but I include all the Counts here regardless.
