'''Wied''' was a County of [[Rhineland-Palatinate]], [[Germany]], located on the [[Wied River]] where it meets the [[Rhine River|Rhine]]. Wied emerged as a County earlier than many other German states. From [[1243]]–[[1462]], Wied was united with an [[Isenburg]]ian County as [[Isenburg-Wied]]. Wied was partitioned twice: between itself and [[Wied-Dierdorf]] in [[1631]], and between [[Wied-Neuwied (state)|Wied-Neuwied]] and [[Wied-Runkel]] in [[1698]].
