The Royals Really Are All Related

Watch part 2 now at: / lindsayholiday
All 10 of the European hereditary monarchs alive today can trace their ancestry back to a single royal couple, Johan Willem Friso, Prince of Orange and Marie Louise of Hesse-Kassel. Let's meet this prolific pair and 76 of their descendent who went on to sit on the thrones of The Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Luxembourg, Spain, The UK, Belgium, Monaco and Liechtenstein. And we’ll take a fascinating journey through the last 300 years of European history.

    @History Tea Time with Lindsay Holiday hi Lindsay! Been a subscriber for years now! Could you please do a video on the Dollar Princesses/ Husband Hunters? There is only one detailed video about them on KZread that I could find. While it was very interesting, it was extremely hard to understand what the narrator was saying. It’s in English, it’s just that the narrator is putting on some kind of voice, I believe. Very low and breathy. I would be absolutely ecstatic if you would make your own Dollar Princesses video! I so much want to learn about them. You teach me so much and entertain me at the same time. You would make a great Dollar Princesses video, OF COURSE! 😆 hope you will consider this! Thank you!

    As a Norwegian I find it super cute that we picked someone to be our king and he was like "wait are you sure" and refused to take the throne until we got to vote on it. As a country that had not be independent for well over 500 years I think that it was very important for us to choose and I respect Haakon VII for letting us do that. Him and Maud really did their best to fit in, including going skiing in 1906, which was photographed and instantly made them feel like our own. Add to that his fierce resistance during WW2 and it is easy to see why he is so beloved.

    I love your videos! During my undergrad years, I hastily registered for a European history course without reading the full course description. I had a severe case of senioritis and was confident that I registered for the right courses without my advisors assistance. Wrong. Since I arrived early on the first day of class, I found a comfortable seat and spent some time catching up on whatever series I was watching at the time. Once everyone else had arrived (i.e., remaining students and the professor), I suddenly realized that I was THE ONLY male in the room. I definitely thought it was odd, but did not give it much thought. A short while later, the professor starts to review the syllabus with us and she read out the full course description - "Topics in European History: Premodern Women". Inadvertently registering for a history course focused on medieval women turned out to be an excellent choice! If you haven't heard of medieval Brewsters, I would highly recommend researching their contributions to medieval Europe. I'll give you a hint - they were women!😄

    A lot of people are distantly ascended from royalty. If you're family is originally from a European country and you trace it back you'll probably at some point reach a member of a royal family. I traced mine back through my dad's family going all the way back through the male line (because that's the easiest) and found that Edward III was something like my 21 times great grandad and we're just a random working class family from north east England. I know others who also have traced their family lines back to some part of the royal family one way or another.

    It shows you how few people actually populated the planet back then compared to today I think. My genealogy says I’m related to Ragnar Lothbrook and Rollo and I only found that out by tracing my unique 1st name. Then I came to the conclusion that there must be tens of thousands of descendants. Curious of the math on that, maybe it’s even more.

    I mean his own grand parents had a famously odd marriage. The theory is that old King Olav was the royal doctors son and not King Haakon’s. Couple that with being a kid during WWII and being forced to flee the country and therefor growing up patly in America, and the fact that King Haakon was selected by the people’s representatives to be King in the first place (and that Haakon nevr forgot this fact), defenetly would have made him more close to the people than most and also valuing real family. It makes just totall logical sense why he chose to mary the woman he loved and who he felt he could have a real family with. SIde note King Haakon didn’t refuse to abdicate during WWII. That’s entierly wrong What he refused was to agree to the terms of the German. He was the king, not the government and so felt that he simply could not make that desicion for the people. His solution was actually to announce that because he was morally opposed to the Nazis he would be forced to abdicate if the government made piece with the invading force, but that it was all their own democratic decision as to what to actually do. This was followed by the government declariring that they would in fact not surrender, and all of them going to Britain to govern from there. I felt tlike this part is very important to understanding the character of the Norwegian royal family. It’s kinda a familly tradition to threated to end the royal line at this point.

    You must remember that the norwegian monarchy was very vulnerable. Harald's two sisters, Ragnhild and Astrid had already married and for many many years, the monarchy was only king Olav and his son prince Harald. And was Harald not allowed to marry Sonja, the monarchy would die out. And history repeats itself. King Harald faced a similar dilemma when his son Haakon Magnus wished to marry, no only a commoner, but a single mother. Perhaps it has gone just a bit too far. Anyway, I will leave it to the norwegians to decide whether they want a monarchy or not.

It’s my hometown and while we don’t really know the Princess’s name we all grow up with the story of how it was built as a symbol of the ruler’s love for his Russian wife. The place is really lovely, nestled on the city’s small mountain amongst a forest.

    A nice (and slightly uncomplete) work (although the names often got pronounced... wrong 🥴). In Sweden, for 200 years, the royals are from the house of Bernadotte. In 1810 the French officer Jean Baptiste Bernadotte accepted to be adopted by King Karl XIII who had no heir. In 1818 he got crowned Karl XIV Johan of Sweden and Norway. The modern European royals are mostly relatives through Queen Victoria (1837-1901).

    One mistake worth pointing out, after William III’s death in 1702 England passed to his wife Mary II’s sister Anne, who became Anne I. This is important because she oversaw the act of union in 1707 when Scotland and England united to become Great Britain, it was on her death in 1714 that the throne passed to George I.

    I like how the Norwegians tend to retire & let their children take power. It helps to keep the country stable after their royals die, since the children have already been in power for years by then. Very smart move. I think it also helps by keeping the royals in their prime ages vs having very old aged royals who may be out of touch with current times. Like Queen Elizabeth is very old (95yo) so her oldest son is also very old (73yo) & her grandson (39yo) is already a father & balding. By the time her great grand son (8yo) is finally crowned king he will most likely be quite old after having had to wait for all the others to have died first. My opinion is that Prince William is the one of prime age to be a ruler now & when Prince George is in his Prime age of 30 or 40ish he should pass the crown & so on. 🤔

    I knew our king Carl XVI Gustav of Sweden had a complicated history line, but this was really surprising! After the Romanoffs sons were borne with hemophilia, the European royal families started marrying outside of their blod lines - which is very good I think.

    At the Ten minute mark, this documentary says that the Royal Family fled to the UK during the war. This was only partially true. They left for Canada where Beatrix attended public school at the nearby Lake of Bays Ontario. Living Mostly at Stornaway in Ottawa her younger sister Margriet was born. When the Royals finally visited Canada late in the 1980's I had the fine privilege of being a photographer within the tour. We flew on the very first Airbus in Canada with Max Ward the owner of MaxAir. I made the innocent mistake of photographing this early plane on the tarmac of Gagetown, a military base. Unknown to me behind me were a fleet of recently purchased F-18 fighters. I was quickly surrounded and escorted back on the plane by the RCMP. Queen Beatrix is a kind person and a gracious woman.
