Maximilian II Emanuel of Bavaria: Dreams of Empire

After a 30-year long period of calm and peace, Bavaria would see the return of grand political ambitions under the rule of Maximilian II Emanuel. An able soldier, he would quickly earn his fame on the battlefield and through his dynastic connections, he would aspire to the crowns of some of Europe’s greatest monarchies. Originally hoping to gain the crown of Spain for himself, he would end up very nearly having his son inherit it instead. He also tried or considered gaining the crowns of the Holy Roman Empire, Hungary and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Ultimately though, Maximilian’s ambitions would never come to fruition, and his legacy can be mostly seen in the impressive architecture he had built.

This is a fantastic channel! Well-researched, narrated and a very clean and professional aesthetic. I wish you great success, sir!

As I know emperor Leopold I was not present in allies camp during 12.IX.1683 battle? His troops were under Charles V, duke of Lorraine command? That's why King of Poland John III Sobieski was main commander?

Now that you mention it, I seem to have made a mistake there. Thanks for pointing it out!

Charles II of Spain had no children. Margaret Theresa was his sister (both children of Phillip IV of Spain).

Perfect music according to history. Great. I did not hear about Jan Sobietski freeing Vienna from the moors.

You have such an underrated channel. I hope you earn the smashing success your efforts merit!

[@MattCellaneous]

I watch a lot of history videos on KZbin and have seen an immense amount of documentaries of the last 30 years. You make the former seem like the latter and I very much appreciate it.

Philippe V of Spain descended from the Bavierans by maternal line. He also seemingly inherited much of the madness that house had... IDK why people keep mocking the Hapsburgs when the Bavierans were lunatics.

His elder sister was Maria Anna Victoria*

I can't .... in the 21st C. imagine how the common everyday garden-variety yeoman (and yo-yo woman) could dust themselves off and fight any kind of a war for these characters.
