Cardinal Mazarin played a crucial role in establishing the Westphalian principles that would guide European states' foreign policy and the prevailing world order. He wrote a great number of books too. Thank you for your great video.
Thank you Ambreen, for watching again !
I like how you mentioned the Mazarin diamonds, as you did with the Grand Condé in your video about Louis II de Bourbon. It inspired me to do a little searching and I found that one of the diamonds, "le Grand Mazarin," a 19-carat pink diamond, sold for $14,463,493 in 2017 at auction. According to the stone's provenance, it was held by every French king from Louis XIV to Charles X (search Christie's and Grand Mazarin - it appears one cannot post links)
Glad you liked it. Thank you for sharing more information about it with us.
When I was at the Louvre in Paris seeing the Mazarin diamonds was just absolutely breathtaking! 💎
I bet they are a sight to see, thank you for watching !
@@TheKingsofFrance absolutely!! Always much anticipated for the next exciting video!!
Also would you possibly consider doing a video on the younger sister of Louis XVI, Marie Adélaïde Clotilde Xavière..? I think this would be a lovely addition
Mazarin, another naturalized Italian - apart from Giambattista Lulli, aka Jean Baptiste Lully - who was very important for the Sunking. One could write an entire book about the "Mazarinettes/Mazarinardes". You covered the most important infos about him, so well done again.
I'm glad you liked it. I want to do a video about Lully, but I'm afraid I won't be able to find the suitable (free of copyright) music to accompany the video...
@@TheKingsofFrance I can find some, if you want me to.
I have to say Mazarin was an excellent tutor to king Louis xiv because of his excellent education which he also impart to the king
Agreed. Thank you for watching !
What an interesting life, the Cardinal led. I don't think that Queen Anne of Austria and the Cardinal had a romantic relationship, I think it was a union of the minds, two intellectuals finding interests in each other's input. Thank you for this amazingly beautiful video.
Thank you as always Vishnu !!
Excellent as always Nieke, this cardinal was another great diplomat and politician, he amassed a great fortune in dubious means to. 😊
Thanks for watching again Robert, I really appreciate it !
@@TheKingsofFrance always a plesure Nieke, thank you.
Excellent! It's hard to find decent information on him in English, even though his name appears in passing in so many people's stories. I greatly appreciated your video.
I'm glad you like it Kae !
Amazing video as always ! Mazarin is truly a fascinating figure in French history.
Thank you very much Jakub, glad you watched this one !
Well, he unfortunately would not be the first or last individual to be outwardly pious while also amassing a sizable portion for himself on earth. Still, I am amazed that Mazarin doesn't get as much press as Richelieu as I find them both very shrewd and effective statesmen I know you covered Maria, but are the other Mazarinettes in the works potentially? They seem fascinating.
That's actually a great idea. Let me see what I can do.
@@TheKingsofFrance Awesome!
splendid job! would love to see you do Cardinal Fleury at some point too :)
He's the third cardinal in my series. His video will air next Saturday !
@@TheKingsofFrance hurrah! I will eagerly await it :)

You're really kind !!!
Olympia Mancini was considered the family beauty but as far as I know Hortence Mancini is the favorite niece of Jules Mazarin
I had no idea that Cardinal Mazarin was from Sicily until now.
Glad I was able to provide you with some new information !
Absolutely love this interesting and beautifully made video, thanks! Ik vermoed dat u historica bent of romaniste? 😉
Geen van beide, gewoon een amateur met een interesse in de geschiedenis van de koningshuizen... Bedankt voor 't kijken weeral !
Another great video! Thank you. He was a very interesting person.
Thank you so much !
Thanks for the very interesting video. (Sorry for not coming)
Thanks for watching hun 😘
Do a video of Élisabeth Charlotte d'Orléans daughter of La Palatine and Mother of Francis I Holy Roman Emperor
Thank you for watching and commenting, I'll see what I can do
Thank you so much..
Thank YOU for watching !
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Marie Mancini and Louis XIV had to be physically torn apart from each other, so Louis could be forced to marry the Spanish dolt princess. I think that is so cruel. He adored Marie Mancini.
You are very right. I have a video about Maria Mancini if you're interested : czcams.com/video/asZpE4yWw0k/video.html
...hey....where's the cats @?? :P...haha..i have these two's coins..:)
Here you go : 'Meow'. As to the coins, really ? Have you had them appraised ? An unique thing to own !
I have heard that Mazarin turned down a proposal for his niece Hortense to marry the exiled King Charles II of England, This would be ironic as she would later be a mistress of King Charles.
Thank you for watching and commenting !
Not one mention of Charles de Batz de Castelmore d’Artangyan. Booooo!!!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting Karen !
Super greedy lol.
Thanks for being here again Eric !
You're so very welcome!
Thank you for the History!
