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

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

[@sapiensursus3034]

Well… but Franco was a fascist. He was a brutal dictator who declared himself sent by god and caused immense suffering. If we take palingenetic ultranationalism as fascism, that fits Franco very cleanly. He was just flexible and intelligent about economic growth.

[@moniyanprince62019]

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.

2:40 "Some sort of succession struggle" Well, actually one of the contenders for the crown welcomed and contracted those "maghrebi" for his cause, but he found out when those mercenaries stabbed him in the back. You know, a minor detail. 6:30 Map is wrong. Catalonia didn't exist as today is, it actually was a mix of territories vassals of the franks, that buffer pack was officially called Hispanic March. 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. Even portugal defeated the ottomans at the other side, the indian ocean, several times. 21:00 Not true, once the prince of asturias is officially declared, it becomes legally the actual heir to the throne, even if new son appears later.

@10:21 Correct me if I am wrong, but I seee the Crown of Castille and Kingdom of Aragon but wasn't the Kingdom of Aragon actually called the Crown of Aragon because of the holdings of Valencia and Barcelona?

aragó was more like a crown than the heavily centralized castille, in fact.

[@delarkaBCN]

crown of aragó = catalan principate + kingdom of arago + kingdom of valencia + kingdom of mallorca etc

[@umbertalonsorovira9260]

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.

[@The_InfantMalePollockFrancis]

@@delarkaBCN Well, Castile didn't become super centralized until well into the 17th, but that is true, it's always been quite centralized as far as feudal realms go. after further research, I found that the Crown of Castile existed as an entity, too namely because of its possession of the crown of Navarre and the union between Leon and Castile. I hadn't known that it was also named the Crown of Castile, because I always was familiar with the Crown of Aragon but not of Castile.

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.

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.

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!!

19:30- While legally the line of Spanish Bourbon monarchs after Isabel II was from the male-line due to her husband Francisco having also been her paternal cousin, by many accounts it was a marriage in name only and it seems that virtually all Isabel II's offspring resulted via extramarital affairs though the couple would stay legally wed until Francisco's death.

[@franbalcal]

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.

[@UsefulCharts]

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.

[@franbalcal]

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

@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.

@@PokerAttack21​​⁠There 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.

[@PokerAttack21]

@@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.

Hi, thank you so much for your work! Love the videos, watching from Germany 😊 I was about to order a couple, only to see that delivery as well as the tax on top are almost another charts worth.. do you have the option to purchase a digital download? I could buy and print it here and we both can save the planet simultaneously 😊

[@RMarch3]

Good question, willing to print in high resolution here in Brazil too. Cheers

Could you please do a video about who would be the monarch of Hawaii today.

[@UsefulCharts]

I've done it. Just search Hawaiian Monarchs Family tree.

Dang I really really like the old chart better

How do you make this Charts matt?

[@Baeticus007]

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.

Very revealing of the ideology influencing the channel.

[@roiq5263]

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.

[@ragmar6018]

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.

[@jacool2565]

I'm surprised you didn't mention Joseph I Bonaparte, Napoleon's brother! (I know he's in the chart I just found it strange you didn't talk about him)

[@mathieuleader8601]

I remember at the time of the Scottish referendum if Scotland became its own country people talked about having Maria Fitzjames Stuart the Duchess of Alba a Spanish noblewoman being the crowned the new queen of Scotland.

[@libiusperseus]

Really ? I remember some people wanted Franz Von Bayern to become king of Scotland but I never heard about this duchess. 🤔

[@DadsBoyz]

I’m Spaniard and approve this message.

[@christopherflux6254]

Fun fact: Princess Leoner apparently has a crush on the Barcelona footballer Gavi. So one day we might see a footballer Prince/King.

[@Benito-lr8mz]

Its a fake notice made a long time ago .

[@plantagenet122]

Gavi rejected her
