Hey Matt great video. I would love to see you do one on the Déby family who have ruled Chad’s political and military for over 40 years. The family has had infighting and the current president Mahamat Déby son of the previous president Idriss Déby had his cousin Yaya Dillo Djérou who was head of the opposition assassinated recently . But I think it would be interesting to see the family and how they’re involved in Chad’s political and military life

Fun fact: in 1808 when Napoleon was busy expanding his power across Europe, Charles IV sided with him but he was eventually ousted which left his son, Ferdinand VII to be the King of Spain. Napoleon was later suspicious of him and so he made his elder brother Joseph to be King in order to expand Napoleon's influence in the Iberian Peninsula, whilst doing so Napoleon grabbed Catalonia and he incorporated it into the First French Empire. Joseph I's reign was seen as illegitimate by the Spanish nobility so that is why he was never shown in this chart. And after Napoleon was defeated, so did Joseph's reign, Ferdinand VII was eventually restored as King of Spain. Another fun fact: When Isabella II was overthrown in 1868, the best candidate to succeed her was a man named Leopold from the House of Hohenzollern over in Prussia. He personally didn't want to be king but he was pressured by Otto von Bismarck to take it. The French Emperor Napoleon III feared that Leopold becoming king will revive the Spanish-German alliance from the 16th century and so he declared war on Prussia. So yeah, Isabella II's deposition resulted in the Franco-Prussian War which ended in 1871, with France losing the war and its territory of Alsace-Lorraine and Prussia turned into Germany after uniting with all the southern German-speaking states, excluding Austria. Napoleon III was deposed and France became a permanent republic, while Wilhelm I of Prussia became the German Emperor or the Kaiser.

Great video! Part of the reason Franco nominated Juan Carlos as his heir is not just due to pressure because he raised him in a sense, educated him and thought this would make him share franco's political views, it was not until after franco's death that it was made clear that he was not a fascist, and he helped created the spanish democracy. Also Isabella II's son Alfonso XII is not a male line descendent of the bourbons, as isabella cheated on her husband almost certainly! So in a technical sense the spanish monarchy are not bourbons

The general name of catalans, is known as a deformation of the french chatelâin, castillian, or guardian of the castle. 12:20 "Are known as the Catholic Monarchs" well, that title only can be granted by the Pope, and it is kinda a special title, wasn't precisely the nickname... By the way, the emirate of granada was for a long time a vassal state of Castile, that's the only reason they lasted for so long, another minor detail you missed... 12:57 Context needed. 13:18 Fake news, inquisition was originally created at france. 14:42 Ottomans were soundly defeated by Spain led alliance at Lepanto.

True. Aragon was a kingdom which, at the same time, was part of the Crown of Aragon, a sort of confederation of the different holdings that the monarchs of the House of Barcelona and later the House of Trastamara inherited. Those states included, at various points in history, the Kingdom of Aragon, the County of Barcelona, the Kingdom of Valencia, the Kingdom of Mallorca, the Kingdom of Sicily, the Kingdom of Naples, the Duchies of Athens and Neopatras, and other holdings in southern France and in Murcia.

I love your videos, but some inaccuracies appeared: i) you did not include the mother of Alfonso I of Portugal (because she was the "owner" of the County of Portugal, as a Leonese princess); ii) you showed Murcia as a part of the Kingdom of Aragon (first, Murcia belonged to the Crown of Castille, and you should have named it Crown of Aragon since it contains four different territories: Aragon, Catalonia/Barcelona, Valencia, and Mallorca); iii) the exile of Sephardic Jews is understood, at the legal level, as the cessation of the residence permit of those unbaptized inhabitants (Muslims were partially covered by the peace treaty with the last Moorish King). Finally, just a comment: the Navarrese line was completely forgotten, although it has a great history behind it, as descendants of El Cid, have been ruled by many female monarchs, and have been carved up by Spain and France.

I do have some questions about the layout of the chart. First, why doesn't Urraca have a crown in her box if she was referred to in the video as "Empress Urraca"? Second, why does Francisco Franco have his own colored box if he wasn't royalty? Sure, he was the undisputed leader of a Republican Spain in between periods of monarchy, but then why doesn't Oliver Cromwell have his own box in the English/British monarchy line? (It just says "Commonwealth of England (no monarch)".) Personally, I feel that Cromwell was more of a de facto monarch than Franco was, but that isn't to say that I believe Cromwell should have a colored box either.

That map at 10:20 is amazingly wrong in many ways. Algarve (the surprisingly red space under Portugal) was actually part of Portugal by then. Heck, it never was part of Castilla even when while it had been part of the Taifa (petty kingdom) of Niebla whose eastern part Castilla had conquered, it had been only the Portuguese crown the one taking it for themselves (the whole 'being legal part of Niebla' was a brief excuse for Castilla to claim it, but that claim never went to anything, it was always Portuguese). Also the frontier of Aragon with Castilla is hilariously bad, insanely moved to the west. It should be HALF of that . Heck, Aragon never had a frontier with Granada!! I mean.. it's surprising that a channel like this that tends to do their research right h as such an insane and hilariously inaccurate map.

It is quite usual to see when historian outside of Navarre write about the conquest to see it explained as an annexation, it was not. Castille and Aragon laid siege to Pamplona and forced the queen Catherine of Foix and the king consort John of Albret to flee to the other side of the Pyrenees. The war lasted from 1512 to 1521 and it ended with Castille and Aragon conquering the southern part of Navarre, the part now in Spain leaving only as the kingdom of Navarre the Lower Navarre, today in France.

I dont remember in the French or English or Scottish or or Portuguese or Italian or German kingdoms vidoes of their family trees any mention of when they signed the laws to expel the jews from their kingdoms? or in the portugal and papal videos when they created their Inquisitions? its mentions like these which fuels the crazies in Spain who love to talk about the "black legend", about all the protestant propaganda to be Spain look bad.

It's because the expulsion of Jews from Spain was the largest of all such expulsions and it had a greater impact on history. It basically resulted in an entire branch of the Jewish people (the Sephardim) being moved back to the Middle East.

I understand this and its indeed a huge part of world history and should be included on any video about general Spanish History, but this is a video specifically about the Monarch's family tree. My point is that every time this is mentioned as a side note that isnt really about the the specific subject being discussed. It really feeds the far right in Spain. They believe there is a protestant led conspiracy to make Spain look bad. Which when the expulsions carried out by other countries are never or rarely brought up... its hard to argue against these far right spaniards. I can actually apply for Spanish citizenship because i have sephardic ancestry from jewish converts from precisely that time period. They have a law in Spain and Portugal where if you can prove you hace such ancestry you can apply for citizenship. @@UsefulCharts

Your naming of kings isn't very consistent: you sometimes say it in English, sometimes Spanish, and sometimed French. As I understand it, king names are translated so you should say them in English always.
@ragmar60186 ай бұрын
Names of kings/queens by convention usually are translated into a local language if there is an equivalent name; otherwise they are left in the original. Hence, we have Carlos III rather than Charles III, Isabel II rather than Elizabeth, etc.

You said that the kingdom of Naples was “over on the Iberian peninsula”. You have to know that that statement is incorrect. The kingdom of Naples is in the ITALIAN peninsula.

Having learned all this in Spanish, it’s weird hearing it in English. I have a scholarly background in the Inquisition in Spain and the Spanish Inquisition (they are continuous, but two different things).

As what house you belong to is determined by the father what would happen if Leonor marries a commoner? Would their children belong to a new house or would they be of Bourbon-Anjou due to the father not having one? We know it's no problem for Spanish royalty to marry a commoner as the current queen of Spain is one.

@DiotimaMantinea-qm5yt But house isn't only surname for royalty? Historically at least in Europe nobility were always considered part of their fathers house and a nobel house died out when there were no more male heirs to become house head. Historically when a woman inherited the rule they always married nobility and their kids became part of the king consorts house, not the queens. Idk if all of this is just tradition or if it's in some obscure nobility law that is basically the same across Europe.

@@PokerAttack21It's just a tradition that goes back to ancient times. There is technically no reason why the house name couldn't go through the mother. The reason why the house name is inherited by the father despite the mother's maternal line being 100% known is just due to sexism of the time.

@@PokerAttack21There was one notable exception with Maria Theresa von Habsburg, whose children became Habsburg-Lorraines instead of just Lorraines (because the Habsburg dynasty was vastly more important). But either way, rules of royalty don’t really matter at all anymore, it’s just window-dressing for a powerless cultural institution.

@@lightyagami3492 Absolutely, matrilineal succession would be much more logical as like you say, you do 100% know who the mother is. My question is more of if the scenario I proposed has been considered as it might become reality soon and it would break with tradition.

Really ignorant video. There was the Visigoth kingdom before that (~400-711AD) and before that it was part of the Roman Republic and Principate (210bc -~400AD) always part of Western Civilization with a common alphabet and strong regional characters. You rather include the Muslims that were just invaders and were kicked out. Really instructional.
