He had no choice except to live. Suicide was out of the question for a man in the most Catholic country in Europe. Philip II (Charles V son) titled himself the "The Most Catholic King Of Spain." Charles V was also the Holy Roman Emperor. His reign was miserable. His native country, The Netherlands was in revolt and Protestantism had become a major force behind the revolt. He'd sat in over Martin Luther's disputation at the Diet Of Worms. Despite a promise of safety from the emperor a plot developed to kill Luther afterwards. He was "kidnapped" by friendly forces and hidden away.It was during his seclusion that Luther translated the Bible into German. So disheartened he retreated into a monastery and his son Philip II succeeded him. Philip conducted the war in The Netherlands so cruelly and even sent The Inquisition in to eliminate the Protestant action. This action of turning a civil action into a religious crusade turned even Catholics against him and they joined the Protestants.

People didn't know genetics at the time, but they somehow knew that incest had negative consequences by observation.

As stated in the comment above, Pope gave permission because: financial benefits and influence. Some dinasties were really loyal to Rome, and it was important for the Pope to mantain these political alliances.

Both Queen Victoria of Britain and Christian IX of Denmark had a lot of children that were married off to the royalty of Europe according to custom. During World War I, every monarch in Europe, even the rulers of minor nations like Romania, and Greece, were the grandchild of queen Victoria on one side, and Chris on the other, making them both maternal and paternal cousins. (Victor Emmanuel III of Italy and Franz Joseph of Austria-Hungary being among the only exceptions, although the latter, as a Habsburg, had a tangled family tree of his own.) Both the Russian Tsar and the German Kaiser spoke English as their first language, and the Swiss press at the time called it "the cousins' war". Surreal.

Even in the present day monarchy are all related to Queen Victoria and her family in some way or another. Porthia cant remember how its spelt its condition that effects bladder can lead to Dementia it was what Mary Tudor and George V I get mixed up with numerals he was known as made George as had bouts of severe hallucinations, kidney stones due to kidney problems he urinated blood as well as looking blue tinge to it. As for Charles guessing going by his symptoms its only recent medical historians, neurological scientists came up with Epilepsy as doubt they knew about it in centuries past, its one thing that got u locked up in Lunatic Asylum having blackouts and Seizures I've lived for over 30years with Idiopathic Seizures one Consultant said to me brain doesnt reveal its self very easily in some people it can be seen why brain misbehaving almost instantly other times takes lot of routing around then there's people like me and hundreds upon hundreds of other people where no amount medical science and tests can't find answer as some where so very deeply in brain there's malfunction causing huge storm triggering my Seizures, in last 20years its been absolutely horrible and beyond horrific the damage from all the seizure injuries and seizures migraines has along with my very severe Fibromyalgia and mild SLE (Lupus) has totally wrecked my body I find now as I'm much more older along with decades of being very poorly each new flair up, hellish agonising Migraines and Lupus etc etc is taking so much longer to get over so utterly draining and extremely very very painfully exhausting so I can't fully imagine agonising suffering he along with others at this time to have very severe special needs especially ones that cause horrendrous agony and distress we just don't no how very very damn lucky and thankful we are with the advancement of NHS, technologies, medication like Triptans for migraines, painkillers for pain and anti sickness medication even if surgery needed we safely get knocked out they had nothing but herbs and spices as well as nasty evil concoction the fake doctors at time prescribed. Another thing money or not it makes u appreciate the fragile sheer existence of life and what a precious gift from God we are but if he had seizure disorder then definitely had water on brain depending on both the severity of this and his Seizures very likely had a degree of learning disabilities and or brain damage

As a human biologist, it's interesting how mutations have changed humanity in the last centuries. Although most mutations are detrimental some mutations have really benefited us. Roughly 10000 years ago, a mutation occurred which enabled people to be lactose tolerant throughout their lives. This small mutation has been so beneficial that it spread quickly and the majority of Europeans have it today (I made a video about human mutations a while ago). Incest however leads to awkward jaws and infertility..

That is so sad. Every time I hear or read about King Charles the II I feel sorry for him. Poor guy didn't ask for any of it. Yes it was common back then but still all of those poor kids who suffered from inbreeding.

"Is this the most messed-up royal tree?" No, it's more like a royal trunk.

Yes inbreeding was common , but the difference was the spanish hagsburgs intermarriage with their Austrian first cousins While the rest of European families married their 2 or 3rd cousins that's why their infant mortality rate, and disorders became more extreme Also the family portrait that's displayed in the background is of the Spanish borbons not the Austrians.
