(also called Bulla Carolina) was an ordinance made by the emperor Charles IV at the Diet of Nuremberg, in January, 1356. It is so named because it was sealed with a golden seal, attached to cords of yellow and red silk. It contains thirty chapters on the form and ceremonies of electing the emperor; the number, functions, and rights of the electors; and all that belongs to the government of the empire.
