The scene of Maximilian being joyous over the arrival of 1,000 Tyrolian troops is personal for me. My ancestors the Alessandri family were given noble status in 1518 by Emperor Maximillian I. In 1588 they received recognition from the prince bishop in Trento. The family is from Livo, Trentino.
I love Mary's talk with Margaret, showing how she also understands things and at the same being sympathetic to her. Also Max's conversation with Wolf is so poignant! Plus I love the Cavalry arrives scene ad Max's happiness is just great to see. Thanks for uploading! :D
I love the conversation between Maximilian and Wolf.There was a kind of understanding and a common code of honour between the two of them.We can sense that.They exchanged few words but enough.That was much that was left unsaid, but we can see that they understood each other.
This is the way things should be, as hard as it is. Back in the day, men knew their duty and they knew it could also cost them their life. Maximilian knew that if he forgave Wolf, their could be a rebelion against Max and Mary. Wolf knew that if he had not taken the responsabilitye of rape charges, Johanna would have lost her nose. This is what made the west so great, men taking responsability and women too, without beaching or whinning.
I understand why Mary was defending Max to Margaret, but Margaret knows a little bit about waging war. Not only was she Charles’s widow, but she was in England when the War of the Roses first started, so she knows at least a little bit about wars.
Wow, I didn’t know that. But I get with Edward marrying Elizabeth Woodville, who has burgundy blood in her veins. Lili1127 correct me if I’m wrong. Great job on the videos. Please stay safe and healthy. 🙏😇❤️👍🙂🤔
Mary of Burgundy had a hard /short life but she was very influent and she had a loving marriage. Maximilian could never forget her and when he died, his heart was buried in the same place Mary's body was buried. If that's is not true love I don't know what is...
Just out of curiosity, do we see Mary give birth to Philip and Margaret, or is this one of those situations where we see her pregnant one minute and holding a baby the next?
Not at this time. Matthias conquered it later, but this siege wasn't successful yet. Although neither was it as unsuccessful as it is shown in the series. In 1477, Matthias declared war on Emperor Frederick after he learnt that the Emperor had confirmed Vladislaus Jagiellon's as King of Bohemia (which was a title Matthias claimed for himself and he and Frederick previously agreed on this). Matthias invaded Lower Austria and imposed a blockade on Vienna. Vladislaus Jagiellon denied to support the Emperor, forcing him to seek reconciliation with Matthias. With the mediation of Pope Sixtus IV, Venice, and Ferdinand I of Naples, Matthias concluded a peace treaty with Frederick III, which was signed on 1 December. The Emperor confirmed Matthias as the lawful ruler of Bohemia and promised to pay him an indemnity of 100,000 florins. And Matthias swore loyalty to the Emperor. So, although it didn't mean the conquest of Vienna yet, this campaign of Matthias' was quite successful.

I bet your family is far more noble than swedish royal family
Tyrol is a land of brave warriors. Very brave😊

Great mini series, very happy I stumbled across it a few years ago

Margaret of York actually saves them she gets Edward her brother to send English troops to help them. i don't know if it will be shown in the show.
No, unfortunately. It would have been good to see Margaret even more influential in the series though.

Yes we will se Philip's birth
We see Philip’s birth but not Margaret.

Didn't the Hungarians conquer Vienna?
