Junta (Habsburg)

Junta (Habsburg)

Under Habsburg rule, a junta (or jointe) was an administrative body ruled in personal union with the Spanish Habsburgs. Juntas existed in Iberia and other European countries; in the Low Countries, the French name "jointe" was also officially used. Some territories maintained their "juntas" even after being brought under the imperial Austrian branch of the dynasty.
