Now that this has been cut and pasted from Riga, the history there might be judiciously condensed?--Wetman (talk) 21:41, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit]  ?

This sentence is not only grammatical, but also historical mistake. What failed? What Lutheranism and Thirty Years' War has to do with it?

"...in Riga and southern Livonia failed as in 1621, Riga and the outlying fortress of Daugavgriva came under the rule of Gustavus Adolphus, King of Sweden, who intervened in the Thirty Years' War not only for political and economic gain but also in favor of German Lutheran Protestantism..."

P.S. why not to mention Peace of Riga 1921? Mikołajski (talk) 21:00, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

And one more - is Lutheranism a "German" religion? I smelln some groß mistake. This city deserve better history article in Wiki. Come on... Mikołajski (talk) 03:01, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
