DER LETZTE HABSBURGER: Kaiser Karl VI. (Die Habsburger Teil 22)

With the death of Emperor Charles VI in 1740, the Habsburg dynasty died out in the male line and was continued by his daughter as the new dynasty "Habsburg-Lorraine." But who was this last emperor before Maria Theresa, who often stands in the shadow of his famous daughter? In episode 22 of our Habsburg series, we take a close look at the life, politics, and legacy of this often underestimated emperor. Between dynastic uncertainty, the Pragmatic Sanction, and a difficult War of Succession. 📜 In this episode, you'll learn: ▪️Who was Charles VI, the last Habsburg on the Spanish throne? ▪️What is behind the Pragmatic Sanction? ▪️How did he pave the way for his daughter Maria Theresa? ▪️Which political and economic crises shaped his reign? 📢 Do you want to not just learn history, but truly understand it? 🔔 Then subscribe to our channel for more in-depth, exciting videos on Habsburg history! 💬 What do you think: Was the Pragmatic Sanction a brilliant move – or a political weakness?
