But how do you give it back to Frederick? His descendants didn't work
for it and don't deserve it.



As to your "His descendants didn't work for it and don't deserve it."
argument, did the descendants of those who TOOK it from him
earn it, do they deserve it more?

No. Few families have a traceable inheritance for 8 or so generations,
so trying to track this down is just dumb. Life isn't fair. Crap
happens. Get over it.
