- Note
- "How Six Made Their Way in the World" (German: Sechse kommen durch die ganze Welt, KHM 71) is a Grimms´ fairy tale about an ex-soldier and his five companions with special abilities who through their feats obtain all of the king´s wealth. It is classed as ATU type 513 A, or the "Six Go through the Whole World" type.
The Grimms´ main version is the one of many collected from storyteller Dorothea Viehmann, localized in Zwehren [de]; a version close to it known in Paderborn is also discussed in their notes.
"How Six Men got on in the World" (Hunt, 1884), "How Six Travelled through the World" (Wehnert, 1853) are among other English-translated title given for this tale. A lesser known translation was given as Fritz and his Friends.
