Woo, early. Excited to see the Habsburg family Möbius strip!

The moment the video goes into the 1800's, nightmares of all the studying Historia de España for University exams came right back at me. Then he completely ignores the absolute political mess, Jose I Bonaparte and Amadeo de Saboya and i can relax again.

So true. Before the 1800's i recognized some names. 90% of those made me think "Have I studied this or do they just have a street named after them"

What you are looking for is the term heraldry. Yes every coat of arm has a meaning, also for family's coat of arms and today in Europe for many authorities, army's etc.

For difficult to follow family trees look at those of the Ptolemies and Cleopatras. Sometimes they married a distant relative - like an uncle.

Incestuous alliances were common among Egypt’s royalty, “A king could marry his sister and his daughter because he was a god, like Iris and Osiris, and this was a habit only among kings and queens.”

George R R Martin unashamedly acknowledged his stories are influenced by British & European history plus other areas. There was a lot of inbreeding in royal houses.

In Spain now children can have the last name of their mother first, so the theoretical prince/ss after Leonor can have the Borbon last name.

The names Kingdom of Asturias and Kingdom of Leon are anachronical, same as the Visigothic Kingdom The kingdom the Visigoths ruled over was called Spania. The Duke of Cantabria was the son of king Erwig, and the kingdom Alfonso I established called itself Spain, since they considered themselves the legal continuation the Kingdom of Spain. So when the capital moved from Oviedo to Leon, the kingdom didnt change its name. It was still called Spain and their monarchs called themselves Imperatus Spaniae (Emperors of Spain)

Charles V abdiquates because governing a territory THAT vast at the time was a fucking nightmare (and becauses a LOT of other reasons), basically he was the emperor of the holy roman empire which is already a big boi, plus also the king of spain which means also controlling the spanish colonies, like half of south america, hall of the netherlands and half of italy and also he was duc of burgundy so he was almost always on the roads because he had to be at least anywhere at anytime he was like "the errand emperor"

Whatt. What Roland jajajaja. This is the coat of arms of Barcelona and was adopted by the kingdom of Aragon. It was the blood of Wilfred the hairy count of Barcelona. The actual flag of catalonia is the 4 red lines in the yellow.

Philip II did have 2 daughters with his third wife Isabel of France. And they both lived to adulthood and outlived their father.

Spanish empire was predominant in Europe in the 16th century, being a mighty and powerful maritime power. They used their maritime skills to go to South America and colonise most of it. Culminated in the Armada, being the attempt to invade Britain in 1588. Its quite ok to learn visually from pictures... your brain learns quicker and easier this way for you. You will find lots of Hapsburgs in the Spanish royal chart.

20 reyes visigodos desde el s.V al s. VII reinaron en Hispania. Ya eran cristianos cuando entraron a España enviados por el Emperador.

The European dynasties are all cousins ^^ they have all a common ancestor.

La hija, Juana la Beltraneja, de Enrique IV de Castilla y de una princesa de Portugal de la casa de Avis, se casó con su tío , hermano de su madre Alfonso rey de Portugal.

Pelayo posiblemente era hijo de un jefe astur, enviado como rehén a la corte visigoda, donde se le trató según su nobleza....era una práctica común, que ya hacían los romanos para garantizar que los jefes de los pequeños territorios les eran leales ..y criaban a los hijos de estos como visigodos nobles......Si Pelayo no hubiera tenido ascendencia astur, los clanes astures no lo hubieran seguido....no solían gustarles los dominadores de ningún tipo, ni romanos, ni godos, ni musulmanes....somos una gente un poco particular, los astures y los cántabros....muy rebeldes, parece...😂😂

Egyptian Pharaohs and Persian Emperors did a lot more inbreeding. One Pharaoh from the Ptolemaic dynasty was known as a sister lover.

Alfonso de castilla , tenía una hija,Teresa , medio hermana de Urraca, ilegítima a la que cedio el condado de Porcugal. Su marido Enrique de Borgoña, se d eclaro rey de Portugal e hizo la guerra al Rey Alfonso VI de León y ganó, el borgoñón.

I agree about " game of thrones". While i watched it I kept thinking about what period of history this took place. Of course it's not real so you can't connect to what's happening elsewhere. The actual history of monarchies and empires in Europe is much more interesting. By the way Charles the second wasn't necessarily impotent but he was infertile. Nature said " stop" to the inbreeding.

No, no, no... Alfonso VI had a lover who gave him an illegitimate daughter Teresa. Zaida was his last wife, she was a Muslim princess who was baptized with the name "Isabel" and was the mother of Sancho, the only son of Alfonso VI, who died at the age of 15 in the battle of Ucles. In addition, Teresa and Urraca married 2 brothers from the house of Burgundy. And it was Teresa's husband who decided to declare himself king of Portugal, which at that time was only a County of the Kingdom of Leon.

Hi Conner, I'm sorry for the long comment, it's just that when the expulsion of the Sephardic Jews from Spain was mentioned, you wondered why it seems that religions tend to switch between being tolerant and non-tolerant. I study the history of the Middle East at uni, and one thing that seems like a common thread is this: When a state with a state religion is doing well externally/geographically but struggles with internal cohesion, it tends to turn hospitable to people of different religions, whereas when it does poorly externally, it turns inhospitable to people of different religions. This is why, when Spain consolidated, it was hostile towards other religions than Christianity; because those separate kingdoms had literally been on the backfoot for 7 centuries and needed something in common to make sure their people would mesh properly. In this case, it was Christianity. Kind of similar to how antisemitism became a way for the nazi's to unite Germany after the defeat in WWI. In other words, the state needs to be doing well and have done well for a good while. I think a more clear example is when Islam starts expanding from the Arabian peninsula: it's initially pretty hostile to other religions, then it settles down as a regionally dominant power and becomes generally extremely hospitable in many instances: Like The Córdoba caliphate in Spain and The Ottoman Empire until things started to really fast downhill at the very end. Then, when European colonialism eventually forces a lot of the Muslim countries on the back foot, the reactionary and fundamentalist factions of Islam that we still find to this day began to form. (They really started to take shape in the 1800's when France and the UK began to fight over Egypt.) It's important to remember that most Muslims today are not a part of those reactionary and fundamentalist factions and are pretty comparable to Christians in terms of how conservative or liberal they might be. For example, it depends a lot on which country they are from, if they live in a city or in the countryside, etc. If you want to learn more about the Ottoman Empire and how it treated people who weren't Muslims, I highly recommend watching Kraut's "The Turkish Century | From Hittites to Atatürk". You can see how the level of tolerance fluctuates with the success of the empire. It's a bit long, so I recommend taking breaks. I also have some recommended books, both about the Ottoman Empire and about the comparison of Abrahamic religions (Christianity, Islam and Judaism), if you are interested.
