Charles V’s portraits seem idealized (the beard hides his jaw however) but Charles II? He doesn’t look any better at all. I think the 17th century portraits were more accurate than the 16th century ones.
"Short, lame, epileptic, senile and completely bald before 35, always on the verge of death but repeatedly baffling Christendom by continuing to live." remains one of my favorite quotes of all time.
I think the saddest aspect of Charles's short life was that he wasn't an imbecile, he knew he was ugly and very different from others. I doubt he had many friends or truly trustworthy servants, and towards his late 20s I suspect Charles knew he wasn't going to live much longer.
I think it was Charles V that originally wrote and performed the song “We’re here for a good time (Not a long time)” The group Trooper took a while to decipher what Charles V was singing about.
I may be misremembering this but wasn't this the king whose autopsy showed one testicle to be 'a shriveled and gnarled walnut, black as coal' and the other 'wholly absent in its entirety'? Hard to make heirs when you can't even shoot blanks.
Funfact: One of the last people to have a rather visible form of the habsburg jaw was Emperor of Brazil, Pedro II (1825 - 1891) His mother was Maria Leopoldine of Austria of the house Habsburg-Lothringen
@@winnienguyen4420 the famous jaw was only around from around 1440-1700, pedro's jaw probably wasn't linked to that anymore. Also it was not as ubiquitous as is commonly assumed; you can look at the habsburg emperors starting from maximilian I, only about a third of them in that time period had a noticable jaw. While incest certainly was a problem, its effects are nowadays commonly exaggerated. Not every health problem of the kings was due to inbreeding, a lot of it is simply poor standards of medicine at the time.

Royals haven't completely stopped the practice. In places like the UK. Or the nobles in places like Germany. They still prefer cousins or other relatives to marry into, who are almost always other nobles.
I imagine Charles II looked even more hideous than the paintings of him show. Medieval painters tended to make their subjects look better than they actually looked. This was likely done to ensure the painter wouldn't get beheaded. For example, Robespierre looks normal in his paintings but in reality he was hideous, with pockmarks ridding his face
Not just then. Photos and paintings of Stalin didn't show his pockmarks either. Images of Kim Il-Sung never showed the gigantic disgusting tumor on the right back of his neck, which is why images of him later in life always have his head turned to his right with the viewer being to Kim's left.

It's kinda poetic that these royal families were so obssessed with keeping all the power and wealth for their own family only that this is what caused their downfall and extinction
Henry VIII: So, can I have the French throne like we agreed? Charles V: Mmmm... No. Henry VIII: What?! Charles V: And also, I don't want to marry your ugly daughter anymore. Henry VIII: (sputters in confusion) Ugly?! Have you seen your chin?! Charles V: *_Mummy says it's a strong chin for a strong boy!_*
One of the myths that persists even to this day is that royals only marry off their children to make political alliances-but in reality, they are well aware of how inbreeding with immediate family members produces creatures that are hard to look at. Marrying cousins who have been separated from the main branch for two to three generations solved this issue for royal families. Even with the Hapsburgs, other European crowns refused to marry into their family as a check on the juggernaut that the Habsburg kingdom was becoming. Many theorize this was actually the reason Charles V separated the Spanish Crown from the Holy Roman Empire, because he knew other royal families would no longer offer up their own to keep that family alive.
I am extremely skeptical in regard to 'inbreeding' claim, as most of the 'history' done by the Anglo-Saxons not everyone is at it seems to be embellished propaganda. Spanis Crow had some inbreeding but not much more than other royal families . Just like with the black legend things are way overexaggerate.
The cousin marriage solved nothing. In fact some genetic tests shown that families who each mixed with cousins for sever generations ended up MORE inbred and with a smaller gene pool than kids literal direct incest. A tiny puddle of people who intermarries so much end up having the same genes anyway.
Prognathism, also called Habsburg jaw or Habsburgs' jaw primarily in the context of its prevalence amongst members of the House of Habsburg, is a positional relationship of the mandible or maxilla to the skeletal base where either of the jaws protrudes beyond a predetermined imaginary line in the coronal plane of the skull. In general dentistry, oral and maxillofacial surgery, and orthodontics, this is assessed clinically or radiographically. The word prognathism derives from the Greek πρό and γνάθος. One or more types of prognathism can result in the common condition of malocclusion, in which an individual's top teeth and lower teeth do not align properly.
On another series, the quest for a new monarch for Spain in the 1860’s caused the Franco Prussian war in 1870. Bismarck forged a letter that started the war between France and the German states.
@@michaelhowell2326 The Spanish deposed their monarchy in the early 19th century probably for this reason. Later they wanted a new monarch and looked for a Noble in another country. I believe that France and Prussia had their favorite candidates and pressured the Spanish. Bismarck forged a letter that insulted the French and the war started. It was one of the videos from Time Ghost.
There are three cases in which a large chin occurs: in tall people (probably a side effect of excessive growth hormone at birth), due to Scandinavian origin (this is characteristic of Scandinavians and Germans as well, as they also mixed with each other), and because aristocrats have been compulsorily marrying each other for centuries. sooner or later, the genetic conflicts came out in this form as well By the way, it is fashionable today, especially in the USA, to have a bigger chin with plastic surgery I have seen a couple Habsburg descendants, but they all have normal chins and looks
@@MMadesen In the majority of cases, aristocrats married aristocrats in the course of history, but today this is not necessarily fashionable, perhaps they also realized the harmful effects of inbreeding DNA Although that red guy in Great Britain Harry made a good choice with that black girl, there was a problem because in this case it is not certain that the joint child will be white and even Queen Elizabeth II, who has since died, was allegedly offended by this, allegedly for this reason as well Harry was partially divorced from the British Royal House In the Hofburg Vienna, which has existed since 1279 and is one of the largest Renaissance buildings in Europe, it covers 240,000 square meters, has 18 building sections, 54 staircases, 26 corridors, 19 courtyards and 2,600 rooms. 5,000 people live and work in the complex. It's no small experience in live, you seriously feel like a dwarf when you enter the yard and look around
@@jackwalker3311 The British are a mixed breed, although they classify themselves as "Celts" racially, but in truth, it should be better to look into the DNA to see if there really is a separate Celtic people Britain was first occupied by the Vikings, then used by the Romans as a retirement site for aging legionnaires There are also a lot of Spanish Catalans and French immigrants, but I have also seen quite a few Italian-looking Britons, and there is also a visible German population in Great Britain But it cannot be clearly determined what the "British" origin covers, because there are no external typical identifying marks, as for example with Scandinavians, Italians, Germans, Jews, Dutch people, the issue of race can be clearly identified even on the basis of the face There is no such thing as Anglo Saxon: you are British or Irish or Saxon, but the Saxons are German, not British Saxony still exists today: German province Saxony is a province of Germany, its capital is Dresden Population: around 4,000
I was very close to not watching this because I wasn't interested in just 8 minutes about a habsburg jaw. Very glad that was not what it was so I wish it was represented the way it deserved in the title. Don't sell yourselves short, you're amazing and don't need weird clickbait!
One thing no one ever seems to touch on. The old philosophy of Mama's baby papa's maybe. So the king and his sister had a child even if she had taken a separate lover in secret the child would still have Royal blood.
Inbreeding doesn't exactly cause genetic disorders, it mostly just activates them. If you have a defective gene, it usually isn't a problem since most genes are expressed in two chromosomes. However, if the other copy is also defective you will have a problem because that gene will no longer function at all. As such, inbreding doesn't introduce new genetic mutations to the gene pool, but causes the deleterious mutations to manifest.
"...If you have a defective gene, it usually isn't a problem since most genes are expressed in two chromosomes." This was also why his sister wasn't as badly affected despite having the same inbreeding coefficient as him
What’s frightening to me is that we all know that the paintings of these freaks have to severely down play the issues. Those artists had their work cut out to still make them look slightly human .
Yup, most royal paintings are something between a very flattering Instagram filter and Photoshop on face to completely AI generated image based on description if we use modern equivalents. Realistic paintings are a very recent thing in history in general too, most were stylized on purpose.
the total irony. How they were afraid that if they bred outside their family that their empire would collapse, yet all their families collapsed due to the imbreeding
I wouldn’t call this a good thing. Royal houses going extinct causes succession crises and wars that usually involve multiple other kingdoms with an interest in who exactly gets the throne. I know this might be a joke, but it’s basically unneeded bloodshed.
If you travel in the south, in rural areas of the US, you will find towns that are filled with the same kind of face. It varies, but there is sometimes a small town and all the people you see have the same look to them. I suspect you'll find similar incidents all over the US and in other countries in isolated areas that avoid travel and widening their social circles.
Yeah if it's a small gene puddle to begin with an isolated community will eventually have very little diversity. People knew that since forever hence the taboos. But also, several traditions where young people were basically forced to look for a wide/husband outside the village. And a bunch of traditions related to that.
I've heard a lot of stories of country/small town folk having to double check lineage before asking someone out or having to date exclusively in other towns because they're related to the majority of people in their hometown.
My family, the klipps definitely practiced inbreeding at a time, hopefully not much, but my mother was terrified at the prospect of ne having a hair lip or club foot.
For the sake of accuracy, I must mention here that late studies in the 20th century have revealed that the chance of genetic deformity among marriage with first cousins is no different than a woman over 40 having children with a stranger. The science has shown that with third cousin marriage, there is no risk of genetic defects and they then to stay married longer and have more children. Furthermore, in the US where a large portion of cousin marriage taboos are found, prior to the 1900s, 10 percent of marriages were among cousins. When we see genetic deformities, we often do not see it was among cousin marriage but instead, among ordinary strangers. Also, for those who do believe in the Bible, there is no Biblical restriction against cousin marriage. Mary and Joseph were cousins. I mention this just as facts you can research yourself. Take what you like and leave what you don't. No amount of facts will stop pre-learned prejudices.

This is why marrying Nobility families were important for Royals. I have Habsburgs through both parents (Paternal line - Gerardi ancient Royal/Nobility of Carthage - Italian nobility from the Kingdoms of Venice and Naples, Maternal line - Greek nobility families of Petrocochino/Mavrocordatos). The problem is slightly in the Royal Bourbons who they intermarried frequently with Hapsburgs. Many Nobility families do have a power to become Royal rulers.

It's kinda poetic that these royal families were so obssessed with keeping all the power and wealth for their own family only that this is what caused their downfall and extinction
Ironic I would say.
Henry VIII: So, can I have the French throne like we agreed?
Charles V: Mmmm... No.
Henry VIII: What?!
Charles V: And also, I don't want to marry your ugly daughter anymore.
Henry VIII: (sputters in confusion) Ugly?! Have you seen your chin?!
Charles V: *_Mummy says it's a strong chin for a strong boy!_*
YES!!! REAL man of culture here!
I see you're a man of culture as well
I heard once that Charles’ portrait painter had been kind when he painted that portrait. Charles’ deformities were even worse than what we see.
Habsburg’s: *start to notice genetic mutation*
Also Habsburg’s: let’s continue this
I don't know how I feel about this video. It really feels like a family matter.
I swear there were tons of Egyptian royale children with deformities, at least the drawings suggested as such
One well known example is King Tut who was inbred and very deformed, so i’m quite surprised the video didn’t mention it at all
Basically mewing before mewing is a thing.
One of the myths that persists even to this day is that royals only marry off their children to make political alliances-but in reality, they are well aware of how inbreeding with immediate family members produces creatures that are hard to look at. Marrying cousins who have been separated from the main branch for two to three generations solved this issue for royal families. Even with the Hapsburgs, other European crowns refused to marry into their family as a check on the juggernaut that the Habsburg kingdom was becoming. Many theorize this was actually the reason Charles V separated the Spanish Crown from the Holy Roman Empire, because he knew other royal families would no longer offer up their own to keep that family alive.
I am extremely skeptical in regard to 'inbreeding' claim, as most of the 'history' done by the Anglo-Saxons not everyone is at it seems to be embellished propaganda. Spanis Crow had some inbreeding but not much more than other royal families . Just like with the black legend things are way overexaggerate.
The cousin marriage solved nothing. In fact some genetic tests shown that families who each mixed with cousins for sever generations ended up MORE inbred and with a smaller gene pool than kids literal direct incest. A tiny puddle of people who intermarries so much end up having the same genes anyway.
Prognathism, also called Habsburg jaw or Habsburgs' jaw primarily in the context of its prevalence amongst members of the House of Habsburg, is a positional relationship of the mandible or maxilla to the skeletal base where either of the jaws protrudes beyond a predetermined imaginary line in the coronal plane of the skull. In general dentistry, oral and maxillofacial surgery, and orthodontics, this is assessed clinically or radiographically. The word prognathism derives from the Greek πρό and γνάθος. One or more types of prognathism can result in the common condition of malocclusion, in which an individual's top teeth and lower teeth do not align properly.
Thank you for the medical school lecture
On another series, the quest for a new monarch for Spain in the 1860’s caused the Franco Prussian war in 1870. Bismarck forged a letter that started the war between France and the German states.
What does that have to do with anything?
@@michaelhowell2326 The Spanish deposed their monarchy in the early 19th century probably for this reason. Later they wanted a new monarch and looked for a Noble in another country. I believe that France and Prussia had their favorite candidates and pressured the Spanish. Bismarck forged a letter that insulted the French and the war started. It was one of the videos from Time Ghost.
@@657449 ok. Gotcha.

There are three cases in which a large chin occurs: in tall people (probably a side effect of excessive growth hormone at birth), due to Scandinavian origin (this is characteristic of Scandinavians and Germans as well, as they also mixed with each other), and because aristocrats have been compulsorily marrying each other for centuries. sooner or later, the genetic conflicts came out in this form as well
By the way, it is fashionable today, especially in the USA, to have a bigger chin with plastic surgery
I have seen a couple Habsburg descendants, but they all have normal chins and looks
The one who had it in the most severe case died out. The austrian habsburgs werent that inbred. Just to a normal degree for their time.
@@MMadesen In the majority of cases, aristocrats married aristocrats in the course of history, but today this is not necessarily fashionable, perhaps they also realized the harmful effects of inbreeding DNA
Although that red guy in Great Britain Harry made a good choice with that black girl, there was a problem because in this case it is not certain that the joint child will be white and even Queen Elizabeth II, who has since died, was allegedly offended by this, allegedly for this reason as well Harry was partially divorced from the British Royal House
In the Hofburg Vienna, which has existed since 1279 and is one of the largest Renaissance buildings in Europe, it covers 240,000 square meters, has 18 building sections, 54 staircases, 26 corridors, 19 courtyards and 2,600 rooms. 5,000 people live and work in the complex.
It's no small experience in live, you seriously feel like a dwarf when you enter the yard and look around
Germanic and Anglo-Saxon people have long, horse-like faces while Slavs have wider jawlines and sport a military buzz cut very often.
@@jackwalker3311 Anglo Saxon people are germanic.
And what your saying is of course a very rough generalization. But there is some truth in that.
@@jackwalker3311 The British are a mixed breed, although they classify themselves as "Celts" racially, but in truth, it should be better to look into the DNA to see if there really is a separate Celtic people
Britain was first occupied by the Vikings, then used by the Romans as a retirement site for aging legionnaires
There are also a lot of Spanish Catalans and French immigrants, but I have also seen quite a few Italian-looking Britons, and there is also a visible German population in Great Britain
But it cannot be clearly determined what the "British" origin covers, because there are no external typical identifying marks, as for example with Scandinavians, Italians, Germans, Jews, Dutch people, the issue of race can be clearly identified even on the basis of the face
There is no such thing as Anglo Saxon: you are British or Irish or Saxon, but the Saxons are German, not British
Saxony still exists today:
German province
Saxony is a province of Germany, its capital is Dresden
Population: around 4,000
Many cases of deformity and inflicted people used to be outcastes but not if you're a royal
Then it's desirable.
One of the very few royals in history that deserves pity.

nuh uh he forced a child to strip and have a portrait of her hung up in court cuz she was fat and made her a jester
I was very close to not watching this because I wasn't interested in just 8 minutes about a habsburg jaw. Very glad that was not what it was so I wish it was represented the way it deserved in the title. Don't sell yourselves short, you're amazing and don't need weird clickbait!
I like that the animations took a good inspiration from the Civ 5 leader screens.
I did notice it animator, your work has been great ;)
Very good job fellows!! Congratulations.
I love how you gave a mention to the history of inbreeding in the Hawaiian royal families.
Yep! We polys love sleeping with our relatives! 🤦🏽♀️🤣😩
A true gigachad of his time
A face only a double-first cousin could love
One thing no one ever seems to touch on. The old philosophy of Mama's baby papa's maybe. So the king and his sister had a child even if she had taken a separate lover in secret the child would still have Royal blood.
Excellent point
Kudos for playing "What is the child" while showing that child with that chin.
The jaw problem originated when a Hapsburg married a princess of Burgundy. So it should really be called the Burgundian Jaw.
Inbreeding doesn't exactly cause genetic disorders, it mostly just activates them. If you have a defective gene, it usually isn't a problem since most genes are expressed in two chromosomes. However, if the other copy is also defective you will have a problem because that gene will no longer function at all.
As such, inbreding doesn't introduce new genetic mutations to the gene pool, but causes the deleterious mutations to manifest.
"...If you have a defective gene, it usually isn't a problem since most genes are expressed in two chromosomes." This was also why his sister wasn't as badly affected despite having the same inbreeding coefficient as him
What’s frightening to me is that we all know that the paintings of these freaks have to severely down play the issues. Those artists had their work cut out to still make them look slightly human .
Yup, most royal paintings are something between a very flattering Instagram filter and Photoshop on face to completely AI generated image based on description if we use modern equivalents. Realistic paintings are a very recent thing in history in general too, most were stylized on purpose.
Spanish royal painters weren't like that. Look at Queen Mary painted by a Spanish painters vs by an English court one.
I can imagine the Hapsburg Jaw can be used as a deadly hammer by slamming it on someone's head.
Interesting.
Applicable!
Destroyable!
JAW OF DESTRUCTION!
the total irony. How they were afraid that if they bred outside their family that their empire would collapse, yet all their families collapsed due to the imbreeding
Had to reread the end of that title. My dyslexia was making a fooling out of me again 😆
I read jaw as "jew" which was pretty funny. What did you read it as?
Peasant 1: oh look a Hapsburg
Peasant 2: no that’s handsome squidward
Children born of incest is the saddest abomination you think of. Everyone deserves long healthy lives. Truly a dark time in humanity
Its still happening with the Aristocracy. They are so greedy, they don.t want to share their Cash.
Not humanity mostly royalty I don't think peasants we're inbred like this

Honestly I think this was good, it was essentially democracy by genetics. This way kings didn’t live too long, especially if they were incompetent

I wouldn’t call this a good thing. Royal houses going extinct causes succession crises and wars that usually involve multiple other kingdoms with an interest in who exactly gets the throne. I know this might be a joke, but it’s basically unneeded bloodshed.
I guess nature always does the right thing...
If you travel in the south, in rural areas of the US, you will find towns that are filled with the same kind of face. It varies, but there is sometimes a small town and all the people you see have the same look to them. I suspect you'll find similar incidents all over the US and in other countries in isolated areas that avoid travel and widening their social circles.
that would be lake isabella CA
Pomeroy, WA?
Yeah if it's a small gene puddle to begin with an isolated community will eventually have very little diversity. People knew that since forever hence the taboos. But also, several traditions where young people were basically forced to look for a wide/husband outside the village. And a bunch of traditions related to that.
I've heard a lot of stories of country/small town folk having to double check lineage before asking someone out or having to date exclusively in other towns because they're related to the majority of people in their hometown.

For the sake of accuracy, I must mention here that late studies in the 20th century have revealed that the chance of genetic deformity among marriage with first cousins is no different than a woman over 40 having children with a stranger. The science has shown that with third cousin marriage, there is no risk of genetic defects and they then to stay married longer and have more children. Furthermore, in the US where a large portion of cousin marriage taboos are found, prior to the 1900s, 10 percent of marriages were among cousins. When we see genetic deformities, we often do not see it was among cousin marriage but instead, among ordinary strangers. Also, for those who do believe in the Bible, there is no Biblical restriction against cousin marriage. Mary and Joseph were cousins. I mention this just as facts you can research yourself. Take what you like and leave what you don't. No amount of facts will stop pre-learned prejudices.
A jawline like that is gigachad

This is why marrying Nobility families were important for Royals. I have Habsburgs through both parents (Paternal line - Gerardi ancient Royal/Nobility of Carthage - Italian nobility from the Kingdoms of Venice and Naples, Maternal line - Greek nobility families of Petrocochino/Mavrocordatos). The problem is slightly in the Royal Bourbons who they intermarried frequently with Hapsburgs. Many Nobility families do have a power to become Royal rulers.
