Ferdinand and Isabella I did not rule Spain. Spain was a personal union of Castile and Aragon. The unification happened with the first Bourbon King Phillips V. So Charles V was not king of Spain but of Aragon and Castile and Leon and later the Habsburgse also became King of Navarre and Portugal. It was Charles V who locked his mother away while trying to keep his grandad Ferdinand at bay who was still King of Aragon but wanted power over Castile.

She was at war and to say she had killed thousands prior makes it sound she attacked to seek revenge which by the events of the time it became a defensive counteroffensive for an oxymoron that that is.

Bathory is one of the more terrifying cases of someone who was considered as a vampire. She's even referred to as Lady Dracula.

I’ve visited the castle where she spent most of her time in Slovakia and many educated people think that it’s pretty much made up stories or at least really overexaggerated. I don’t think that she was innocent but I don’t believe that she actually killed so many young women… it sounds terrible but noble people back then used to do horrible things and no one questioned them. So many people were burned at the stake.. just because some powerful people accused them of doing something supernatural when they were mostly people who just had some sort of power(but more like political influence, status, knowledge..idk, it was crazy for sure😅). One of my close friend is fascinated by Elizabeth Bathory and she read every possible book&studied as much stuff as she could… and she thinks that Elizabeth was innocent.. or at least didn’t do majority of the things that she was accused of.

Bathory never drank the blood, she bathed in it, and she didn't take the girls by force, she lured them in by teeling their parents she will teach them good manners. Also the girls had to be virgins and later on she moved to noble girls, because she was kinda out of virgins. Thats why she was caught. Moreover, she didn't spend her life sentence in luxury, she was locked in an empty tower from the castle where a wall has been built to lock her in, no windows no doors. And she died from starvation.

If "evil queen" is decided by what happened under the reign of the monarch then Queen Elizabeth should be on this list. It's a gross whitewash of history to ignore the 3 million Indians that Winston Churchill starved while he was prime minister, and the concentration camps in Kenya and India under her reign which she directly profited from and still owns ill-gotten land.

I don't know guys. About Juana the mad (la loca), it was well documented that she wasn't fit for duty, since she became the heir apparent, her father tried to introduce her to the "kingdoms' affairs" with no avail. Even suggesting in his chronicles that Joan had something more than lack of interest. Her husband Philip and the Flemish court also documented the mental issues of Joan, as well as his sons... Now on Isabella there are a lot of mistakes there... most of this legend of an evil Isabella's character was not documented on her time, so that note should be included.

I love the infographics show but this video is extremely inaccurate and misleading. I a student of history and have been studying history (specifically the Tudor period and the wars of the roses) for YEARS. The lies that you repeated about Mary I in this video (and the one you made specifically about her) have no historical basis, especially the claim that that she had pregnant people burnt. First of all, Mary herself said that she wouldn't prosecute protestants that were loyal and respectful to her and who practiced their faith in private. Of course, some of the people killed were innocent, but that wasn't by MARY'S hand. That was the fault of the bishops and clergy who were responsible for law enforcement. They went to far a lot of the time and often did things without the Queen's permission. Secondly, Mary NEVER had pregnant people killed. It was against the law at the time, even for monarchs, and Mary was the last person who would do that as a very motherly person herself who was desperate for a child of her own. The claims that she had pregnant people killed were made up by an extremely misogynist protestant a long time after her death. There is no evidence to suggest that what he claimed about her reign were true, and many historians nowadays agree that he was just trying to scaremonger about female leaders and Catholics. As a historian myself, I find the fact that a channel which is very popular and one which many people look to for facts and information is spreading these lies to this day very annoying and disappointing.

Marie Antoinette shouldn't be up here she was only 19 when she became queen she got married to louis the 17th at 17 even Marie knew she would later die her children didn't have it so great ether , sure she didn't do anything for the poor she maybe was a little selfish but in the end she lost her husband and children she was very polite. on her execution day she accidentally stepped on the executioner foot and she said "pardon me sir for I did not do it on purpose*

WOW LOVE IT!

YEAH INFO! YEAH HISTORY!

To be fair Queen Olga converted after that event and Chilled out a lot afterwards

So, Juana La Loca was Catherine of Aragon's sister? Didn't know that!

FROM Ferdinand II of Aragon/V of Castile and Isabella I of Castile ( The Catholic Monarchs of Unified Spain !!! )

The inclusion of Marie Antoinette here is totally unfair. She did not make policies.

Y'all know this is a joke right?

Mary Antionette wasn't evil. Oblivious and privileged absolutely but not evil.

In the UK where I live queen Mary the 1st was scary she burned people's skin off with one candle ONE so she kept killing for fun

Yes the queen of Madagascar is often times called the female Caligula.

Isabel de Castilla, along with her husband Fernandino de Aragón, believed XPO ,Christoforo Columbus, and she sold many of her jewels 💎 in order to help finance the journey from ESPAÑA 🇪🇸 to the supposed new world 🌍 , and Columbus did complete 4 voyages of discovery to the new world 🌍, however on his ultimate voyage, he became a very old man, and lost much of his savings, and he, I believe, died in poverty 😢

These stories of powerful women are both fascinating and chilling. It's a stark reminder of the darkness that can lurk behind positions of authority throughout history

Hey there @The Infographics Show, could you please make a video about what would happen if Rita Repulsa and Goldar (from the power rangers series) fought the U.S. military?

I'm losing respect for this channel, there's no way Marie Antoinette said "let them eat cake" She did not say that. Out of touch? Maybe? Cruel? No. How many people did she put to death? And she ended up guillotined herself.

The part about Maria Eleonora is also completely false. I've made a video about Vasa queens, third part is mostly about her, if you would like the hear her real story :)

14:34 I love Isabelle the first. As a Bolivian 🇧🇴I'm ashamed of the bad reputation mediocre people gave her. She always looked after the indigenous people from Latin America

"It's all your fault, bigfoot". Sad, but LOL

Isabella of Castille was Catherine of Aragon's mother Catherine was so beloved its weird her mother was like that

I was watching and suddenly I hear "Marie Antoinette" and I was like, "Wait a second, I'm related to her!"

Marie Antoinette doesn't deserve to be on this list. She wasn't evil, she was sheltered and honestly didn't know anything that the French people were suffering from.

I love the cartoony animations, make it looks so cute and sad at the same time LOL ♥

Hey infographics will you do a video about the world economic forum I like to see whose side you're on

I blame the Rap Music. The ticking of the hihat constantly triggers the brain with instant reactions to uneeded strife with a feeling to ACT SUDDENLY. The thud and vibration of the Bass messes with the timing of the Heart and Lungs causing undo stress and Anxiety. You will feel anger and uncertainty while listening and feel trapped by even your alley or vehicle. Your home becomes a prison with the music inside of your body making you want to get high and violent.

Correct

If I’m not mistaken, if it was ever said, “let them eat cake” referred to the baked on soot in the fireplaces.

That's one interpretation. There's actually no evidence that she said it period. The earliest claim that attributes that line to her comes from a document written 40+ years after her death.

7:13 Maria Antoinette Never Actually SAID That Quote !!!

Boris Johnson said that if Putin was a woman he wouldn't invade Ukraine but Catherine The Great would cringe at that statement.

She did not say that about cake a male said it not Marie . Marie did try to help people less fotunate than her

The "cake" reference falsely attributed to Marie Antoinette wasn't about expensive desserts. Cake, at the time, referred to the thick layers of burnt carbon that built up on the walls of the wood fire ovens used at the time.

"She was later taken to Brazil, but things didn't get any better there." I wonder why? LOL

The birds setting the fires is quite brilliant
