	<blockquote>Trier, Treviri, Augusta Trevirorum, a City of [[Germany]]; called by the French Treves; by the Italians Treveri; by the Germans Trier. It is an Archbishops See, whose Bishop is one of the eight Electors of the Empire; and his Suffragans, Metz, Toul, and Verdun; three Subjects of the King of France. A great and an ancient City, seated upon the Moselle, over which it has a Stone-Bridge; thirteen Leagues from Metz to the South-East, seventeen German Miles from Cologne to the South, and from Mentz to the West. Said to be built fourteen hundred and ninety six years before the Birth of Christ: and so to be the most ancient City in Europe. Made a Roman Colony in the times of Augustus; and afterwards the richest and most famous City in Gallia Belgica: the Metropolis of the Treviri. About the times of Constantine, it was for a long time the Seat of the Western Emperors; resembling Rome in all its magnificent publick Buildings, as much as was possible. In the year of Christ 456, it was taken and ruined by the Huns, and other barbarous Nations in their Passage into Italy. But after this it recovered. In the year 1472, there was an University opened here. In the year 1568, it was taken by its Bishop; and ceased to be a Free and Imperial City. In the year 1632, it was put into the Hands of the [[France\|French]], to preserve it from the [[Swethland\|Swedes]], as was pretended: they kept it till the year 1645. In 1675, it was again recovered out of the Hands of the French; who had seized upon it the second time not long before. In 1688, the French put another Garrison into it.		<blockquote>Trier, Treviri, Augusta Trevirorum, a City of [[Germany]]; called by the French Treves; by the Italians Treveri; by the Germans Trier.
