Albert Wolfgang, Count of Hohenlohe-Langenburg

He was head of the House of Hohenlohe-Langenburg and introduced primogeniture in Langenburg in 1699. This meant the oldest son would inherit the entire county, and younger sons would only inherit if the oldest were to die childless. From then on, younger sons would mostly embark on military careers, for example, in the imperial army, or in friendly nations.

On 22 August 1686 he married Countess Sophia Amalia of Nassau-Saarbrücken (1666–1736), the daughter of Count Gustav Adolf of Nassau-Saarbrücken. They had the following children:

• Eleonora Juliana (1687–1701)
• Frederick Louis (1688-1688)
• Sophie Charlotte (1690–1691)
• Philip (1692–1699)
• Christiana (1693–1695)
• Louis (1696–1765), married Countess Eleonore of Nassau-Saarbrücken (1707–1769)
• Charlotte (1697–1743)
• Christian (1699–1719)
• Albertina (1701–1773), married Prince Philip Henry of Hohenlohe-Ingelfingen (1702–1781)
• Sophie Friederike (1702–1734)
• Henrietta (1704–1709)
