About Joachim the Younger
Lived 1424 – 1451 (aged 26–27). Joachim the Younger was an aristocrat.
Joachim, also known as Joachim I, Joachim the Younger, and Joachim of Pomerania (c. 1424 – 22 September 1451), was a member of the House of Griffin, and the duke of Pomerania-Stettin, that ruled from 1434 to 1451.
As a young child, Joachim was engaged to Barbara of Brandenburg, a daughter of Margrave John of Brandenburg, in 1427. The marriage did not materialize as Barbara married Margrave Ludovico III Gonzaga in 1433 instead. Joachim married Barbara's younger sister Elisabeth of Brandenburg in 1437. They had a son Otto III, who was born in 1444.
In 1442, Joachim granted the privileges to the town of Neuwarp. The war ended on 3 May 1448, following the fighting in Pasewalk. The conflict ended with status quo, with conquered towns remaining under Brandenburg control.
