As for part one on the series on the House of Habsburg, we chronicle its beginning and rise to power, culminating in the coronation of Charles V.
Written by Andrew Szekler - Zábava
A Habsburg walks into a bar and the bartender asks: "Hey why the long face?"
“I have a face only a cousin could love…..”
@@thenotreallebron only my niece can love me, or cousin daddy , or granpa uncle dad
Hahaha
🤣🤣💀
The Habsburg: Didn't I do it for you?
The Habsburg rise to power is jaw dropping.
they were so happy from their wealth their chins grew
@@randomguy6152 wealth? The inbreeding got a lot worse when they declared bankruptcy 7 times in 4 years.
probably was jaw protruding!
OMG the comment is Brillianttt
@@ChevyChase301 have to cope somehow, family is usually great at easing the pains
Fun fact about why the Habsburgs managed to collect that much land in the early years. They simply did not join the Crusades. Many lords around them died because they went on Crusade. This meant that their lands were left without a ruler and the Habsburgs could simply collect them. They realised the importance of: Stayin' alive...
Then they breed themselves to extinction
@@hoze1235 they're still around they just lost the war
That doesn't seem true because the crusades ended in 1291 with the fall of Acre and Rudolf "The Founder" was born in 1339. Besides, most of the crusading forces were from areas on the other side of Bavaria/Bohemia from Austria and so they were safe from the Habsburgs.
@@hoze1235 That was only the Spanish line
You are aware that the Habsburg were in a near constant struggle against the Ottomans right? Why would you try and conquer some "Holylands" if the single most powerful Muslim nation is at your doorstep?!
And a chin that can hit homerun, holy roman emperor Carlos V.

That's fkn funny fam 😆😅
"Mummy says it's a strong chin for a strong boy" 🤭
"Quoting oversimplified? There's a tax for that"
Man i don’t know why but i love Maximilian I. Maybe it’s the fact that he was an active warrior/general king or maybe he’s excellent marriage politics culminating in he’s grandchild Charles. Anyway love the guy
He loves you too.
Does Maximilian I love me too?
@@tawgenal No, not you. Sorry.
also Maximilian armour was pretty neat!
He almost marry the heiress to Brittany too
I was literally just looking for a documentary about the Habsburgs. Love your videos man!
To be fair Habsburgs domains also for afew years also included England and its domains since Philips marriage to Mary lead to an act mirroring Marys titles onto Philip and Philip was naturally able to assert much influence over the adminsitation and court considering his power and reputation from other realms.
Phenomenal video, loving this format very much. Would love to see more of the same for other obscure dynasties that rose from minor dukes and counts of the HRE into powerful domains, like the Hohenzollerns, di Medici, de Savoie or the Wittelsbachs. Keep it up Spectrum!
Edit: Just before I get "um, actually'd" I know the Medici didn't start off as landed nobles, they were patricians from the Republic of Firenze. But they did practically dominate Europe and eventually became Grand Dukes of Tuscany, so they count in my book :D
I like this! Once youre done with the habsburgs, could you perhaps cover some bohemian dynasties? Like the house of Přemyslid?
The only things I know about the house of Premyslid is from ck3, sp that would be interesting.
Jo Jo brácho
That sounds interesting! I second that 😊
@@Exeggutor_Enjoyer ever heard of "good king Wenceslaus"? yeah, he is a Premslyid.
Bullshit dynasty
Yes! My favorite Dynasty featured in your channel! Thank you!
Very poor taste in dynasties. Very sad.
But why?
Best dynasty
@@julymagnus493 why?
@@santymartin7383 Idk why he has trash taste too many people are locked in the Medieval European setting. Not enough people reach the refined top shelf quality that is China and Roman dynasties.
I always wanted to know the history of the Habsburgs and now finally a great video explaining their history! Thanks, bro!
So glad to have a video on the Habsburg by you, a very interesting family
Spectrum dude, you are REALLY GOOD. Thank you very much for all your work. Kudos.
Very much looking forward to part II as well as any other similar videos.
I don't know how you did it but as a swiss person your pronunciation of Aargau is literally perfect.
Time stamp?
Good video as always, the Habsburgs is one of the most important dynasties that have ever existed.
I would like more videos like this. I listened to it while working out and loved it
I personally think that even the House of Habsburg isnt as glorious as the House of Capet, which if we're bing honest, should be considered a massive dynasty, that ruled across every single continent.
A while ago, I watched an old documentary series on the Habsburgs. The first thing the presenter said was "The history of Europe is the history of the Habsburgs."
Great and succinct summary as always!
It's funny how even in early years, Habsurgs had similar goals as in late emperors. Increace its power in Austria, Bohemia and Hungary, strengetn position in Germany, fight the french.
Habsbugs! The family tree that doesn't branch!
Dam
Hell yeah, new Spectrum!
Charles IV rejected Rudolf IV's title of Archduke and Rudolf's younger brothers did not refer to themselves as such in charters. It was not until the accession of Frederick III to the Imperial throne that the status was confirmed. The Privilegium Maius was Rudolf's attempt to heighten his prestige since Rudolf seemed to have a rather manic obsession to match Charles IV's immense power after he was denied electoral status by Charles in the Golden Bull of 1356.
It is realy interesting to hear about the time between the take over of the Habsburg and Maximilian. Austrian history classes usaly don't talk about this period
Nice finally a good habsburg history video keep up the good work
Somehow you made this all easy to understand.
can’t wait to watch!!!
Good vid always wondered how such a small family became such a dominant force
Hmm interesting ❤I enjoyed the video and had to subscribe 😊Thank you, looking forward to learning more.💯
10:35 yoooooo favorite history youtuber talking about favorite obscure European monarch I could cry
Yeah Ladislaus the Posthumous lived a slightly tragic life, born immediately into a war of succession as the Polish King Wladyslaw III, Ladislaus was given to Frederick III for protection from both Wladyslaw's army (featuring a certain John Hunyadi) and the Ottoman's, threatening expansion to Europe.
Being forcefully held in Frederick's court for 12 years, Ladisluas returned to a Hungary still divided, but largely quelled the division by forigiving those who supported Wladyslaw against him, even making Hunyadi the captain general of Hungary after he fought against his succession.
With his regent curtailing his diplomatic abilities as Duke of Austria, Ladislaus had to deal with his best general (Hunyadi) dying immediately after the Siege of Belgrade, Hunyadi's son (also named Ladislaus) murdering the man who took his place, and being held captive by said son in Hungary. Ladislaus then succeeded in having the younger Hunyadi executed whilst keeping his brother, Matthias, captive. Having finally come somewhat close to consolidating his position over Hungary (brewing civil war with Matthias's supporters notwithstanding) Ladislaus responded by dying of either the plague or leukemia, and being succeeded almost immediately by said man he held captive, fun life.
Great Video man 👌🏻
8:52 this Leopold Even died in the battle of Sempach, I visited the "Schlachtkapelle" of Sempach last year and bought a helbard there, also very beautiful paintings are in that chapel.
Great video!
Wish youtube had sent this to my recommendations 5 days ago instead of a song I listened to in 2014...
finally you did content on the habsburgs
I’m a simple man. I see a new spectrum video and I press play instantly.
Great video
The word "heir" is pronounced the same as "air" and NOT "hair". Yes, it's weird, but that's English for you!
The origin story of the effed up jaws
Albert so handsome with that wee Xmas hat
6:50 this guy is pretty impressive 13:24 EU4 BURGUNDIAN INHERITANCE
Make one of the Trastamaras 👌
nice one
Albert I has easily the funniest medieval portrait of all time
Im surprised how much Game of Thrones and Medevial Euorpean history have in common, and I dont mean the obvious like historical influences,but more so how the society around them. I guess a good example would be how important family lines are in both history and Asoiaf, like how the Lannisters and the Habsburgs slowly build their empires over time. Not only that ,but the constant infighting, and wars are also common ie The One true King vs R*nly, and the trifecta battle between the inbreds.
You should play Crusader Kings
seeing this episode and anticipating the next one. id hope to see a habsburg emperors tier list from frederick iii all the way to franz joseph and charles i. that would be very cool
I finally found a normal video about this dynasty
Habsburg tierlist when?
What a powerful family. They could turn people into their hair.
surprisingly many of the portraits can be used for meme material
Reichskammergericht - yeah, must be hard for non-German speakers.
Maybe a short mention of the OG dynasty the Babenbergs would be helpful for some. Other than that I can't complain.
Love the crooked face in the thumbnail really nice touch lol
Please make a video ranking every Safavid Shah from worst to best
Do one on the Chigisiid dynasty!!
As a Hungarian, I'm kinda mad, but I gotta respect the effort they put into it.
I mean the long face also.
Im so confused. I am looking on wikipedia to follow along with all the monarch but I can't find anything about Albert who you mention took over from his brothers and quoted "one people, one ruler, one house". a link would be appreciated as I am super confused
Can u plz do a video ranking the U.S. presidents?
Hey could you tell me where the picture at 15:05 is from?
Literally a game of Crusader Kings
Often tenacity and outliving your opponents is more important than skill
Video idea: top 10 greatest enemies of the Ottoman Empire.
The OG Crusader Kings
Others conquer to get land, the Habsburgs marry to get land.
'Bella gerant alii, tu felix Austria nube,'; "Let others wage war, thou, happy Austria, marry."
A rather very strategic and revolutionary policy of diplomacy of the time
@@MNKY80808A. E. I. O. U. (Austria est Imperatrix omni Universo: Austria ist empress of the whole universe)
What is the opening backgroung music?
Gunthram is sometimes a hunnic name is a possible they have any connection to the huns of late antiquity ?
that’s the stuff
Do a video on house of Luxembourg
Yes or Liechtenstein
what is the cypher at 7:30 from?
I took a 23andme test and it claimed I have some relation to the hapsburgs. They also told me I have some connection to Marie Antoinette. Kinda cool, probably one of the better historical figures from Germany I could've been related too all things considered...
whens Part two
whilst i enjoy this video i might suggest having animated subtitles as the standard youtube captions are kind of incompetent, understandable if not though. I know that takes a lot of time up through editing.
Imagine if this was what the movie Jaws was actually about.
Great video as usual, just so you know though. Heir is pronounced just like “Air” instead of Hair. The H is silent and the word is spelt stupidly much like plenty of other English words.
No
@@cristhianramirez6939 yes. I am a native English speaker.
Excellent video
Oh also heir has a silent h
Taking "strong family ties " to another level 💁🏻♀️🤭
Can you make a Video in wich you Rank Every King of acheamenid persia
Where is hre ranking
13:06 I find it funny how you tried to pronounce Regensburg as german as possible, but it sounded rather Polish
so as a Hungarian(szeleky, judging by your last name) what is your opinion of the Hapsburgs?
He-he's hungarian? 😢
That court sounds like something I’ve heard my say one night steamboats or sound something like that but am Scottish fuck knows
Hello Spectrum. Im a huge fan. Can you please do the Holy Roman Emperors?
Also Sigismund's daughter Elizabeth ruled Bohemia for her son and fought unsuccessfully for the throne of Hungary on his behalf
Can't wait to see the jawlines.
Ah, the Habsburgs, such an interesting dynasty.
You're 100% Portuguese, that accent doesn't lie. :)
Adolf of Nassau was chosen becase Wenceslaus II of Bohemia ( by the way son of Otakar II) wanted somone who he can control . But few years later Adollf became claiming territory wich Wenceslaus wanted so the Czech King change sides and his and Albert army defeted Adolf in battle .
when will pyrrhic war drop?????? (ps love the vids :) )
'The habsburgs have married into so many royals families, they might have to start marrying themselves' -Bill Wurtz
They going for dynasty of many crowns
Have you been watching hell on earth by chapo trap house?
Unrelated, but is that the same music Sam O’Nella uses?
From your accent, I'm guessing you're Portuguese?
The OG crusader kings players
14:43 So from here is the meme of european wars. Amazing
👍
10:10 The First spooderman...
When others conquer through wars, the habsburg conquers through marriage
He pronounces the H in in the word heir
RIP Hair 🫡🙏🏼
