Lindsey, Who were the Catholic relatives who were excluded from the line of succession before naming Sophia, Electress of Hanover and subsequently her son who became George I? The Act of Settlement (1701) guaranteed the line of succession of Britain. As a granddaughter of James I, Sophia was the choice to succeed after the death of Queen Anne. No doubt Sophia had Catholic relations between James I and herself who were excluded from succession.
Imagine marrying someone after you were warned that their family has a history of a horrible genetic disease and then blaming said spouse when the child is born with it.
I remember not believing an unborn baby can ever be crowned a monarch. I once asked my English teacher who taught us about the English royal family if a foetus can be considered a monarch and my entire class being shocked when she said yes, apparently they can I was just sharing a personal story and now the replies are having arguments about abortion. Beware if you want to read them
It drives me a little nuts when people suggest that William and Mary didn't have children because William was gay. Whether or not he was attracted to men is up for debate, but both him and Mary desperately wanted children and the real reason they didn't have any was because Mary had a traumatic miscarriage early into their marriage that damaged her reproductive system and left her infertile. It's part of the reason they grew so close to their nephew even though they were feuding with Anne: they both adored children and would've wanted to be parents, regardless of what their sexual preferences were.
I believe they both are bisexual. As Mary II definitely seemed to fall in love with a very close friend of hers. And Anne was definitely bisexual herself
Wait wait wait, King Alfonso XIII blamed his wife for the hemophilia? His mother warned him! This was common knowledge by then! That decision was on him lol. I mean, yes it came from her family, and everyone knew this. Like, I'm laughing at King Alfonso's indignation here, but like, that's also terrible because imagine how she felt, getting cheated on constantly and having sick children.
Don't forget the Emperor Augustus' original heir was named Marcus Agrippa Postumus, meaning that he was born after his father died. You were named Postumus if your Parent died before you were born. Agrippa wasn't such a nice guy, and his Grandfather Caesar banished him and made Tiberius his heir.
That makes sense how “posthumous” has now come to mean “awarded after one’s death”. It started off that the baby came after the father’s death, then the word evolved to mean almost anything that comes after one’s death (that’s related to that person). It did make me blink the first time I heard of a historical figure being named that. Especially a king. It makes it sound like he was crowned king after he died, lol.
You mean the youngest son of Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa and Julia the Elder? Postumus was ultimately executed by his own guards shortly after Augustus' death in AD 14. Postumus was known for being brutish, insolent, stubborn, and potentially violent. He possessed great physical strength and reportedly showed little interest in anything other than fishing. He resisted all efforts to improve his behavior, forcing Augustus to "abdicate" him from the Julii in AD 6 and banish him to a villa at Surrentum, near Pompeii. Augustus didn't like Julia the Elder either, she died of starvation after her own exile.
my favorite thing about john the posthumous is that he's not just "the posthumous", he's also "the first", because i guess john the second thought his legacy was so inspiring that he ought to be john too
Amazing how many ambitious nobles would be willing to murder, for the most hazardous seat in country or land! A great and very interesting video, Lindsey. Thank you
Just like today most people who are actually good for the job are smart enough to not want it. On the other side of the coin most of the people who want the job aren't going to be great at it.
Life was disregarded back then. It was either kill or be killed. And nobles just wanted wealth, power and success just like humans do nowadays when it comes to careers.
@@saranemcova5448Arguably it's because the title predates the kingdom of Scotland. It's also just a different way of looking at it. The first king of England was "king of the English" and the Welsh refer to themselves as a people rather than land. It's the English who changed, possibly in an assertion to contested land or reflecting how important landownership was to their society.
Shapur (described in this video) & Holy Roman Emperors Henry IV & Frederick II are the exceptions. They became strong autocrats who succesfully dominated the people around them.

I also wasn’t aware that apparently their names were Jean and Jeanne? Who names siblings that? I guess it would be easy to know who you’re talking about since he was always “King Jean” and she was “Princess Jeanne” but it still seems like the names are needlessly similar.
@@Annie_Annie__ It was France, the aristocracy did use female versions of male names often. They had similar names, some examples: Joseph - Josephine Gabriel - Gabrielle Jean - Jeanne Surprise for you, Anne was both a male and female name in France.
@@cinna_sultan I get that, it was more that siblings had names that sound virtually identical. So, like in a normal household, how would the kids know who is being called for when mom yells for them if their names sound the same? Seems like it would get confusing. But I guess in their houses it doesn’t get confusing because the boy is always called “Le Roi Jean” (I’m guessing, I don’t speak French) and the girl was probably called “La Princesse Jeanne”.
@@Annie_Annie__ There are definitely distinctions and nicknames used to address them. But because France was very much revolved around etiquette etc people didn't call each other by their names. French princesses were addressed as 'Madame' and princes 'Monsieur.' The same style of address applied to other nobles as well. Madame Royale is the French title of Princess royal. France did have the title of Princess (Princesse du sang) and Madame la Princess but they used 'Madame' regardless.
That's his karma. He wants to be king, and he wanted to have affairs on his wife like a king. He is very selfish and I believe the queen will hang on longer than him out of spite, since his selfish ways lead to Princess Diana's death

Yet another regent who made a huge change to better himself and only himself, but affected so many people and families centuries later, and could have very well been the small and gradually large-sized butterfly/domino effect that had a hand in ending the French monarchy entirely in the future.

@@chunellemariavictoriaespan8752 Oh, I would imagine. XD But hey, it would have gone down in legend that's for sure. And we would probably have a few sayings, proverbs, and jokes about it now.
After Ladislaus' death, Madeleine of Valois married into the navarrese royal family and therefore also became an ancestor to Henry Iv of France (he was her great-great-grandson by her daughter Queen Catherine I of Navarre).
As a Spanish person, I hear that the King was out there talking like the people of my neighbourhood in the 90s is really funny. Also, you should check Maria de las Mercedes, she was Princess of Asturias and heir to the throne for her whole life, as she died before Alfonso XIII married. Her husband married again and one of his second batch of children, another Maria de las Mercedes, married one of Alfonso's children, Juan, and the current King descends from them. I've always found that detail quite funny, you know, the second wife's daughter marrying the first wife's nephew.
Just realized that the "Jean I" section sounded so familiar because it's straight out of LES ROI MAUDITS (sp?). Sure would be fun to get a profile of all the French monarchs!
You make history fun I love your videos. Please keep up the great work. One never knows what they're ever gonna learn here (and I'm always learning something new). I always lose track of time. It's like going to class and loving it.
I had a home birth and that baby was not going to be born on nice sheets. That baby was born on sheets I didn't mind getting trashed. I think the queens would want their back up sheets.
I mean, they are queens. It probably wouldn't really matter if nice sheets got messed up, because they most likely had like hundreds of good quality sheets.
do you think you could do a video on some of the former royal families of the balkans? there were quite a few monarchies in that area during a time and i find not many people talk about those former kingdoms
I'm just imagining a three month old king being crowned, screaming the whole time. 'Yep, that's our king. He screams, shits himself, has absolutely no understanding of anything, but he's the son of the last one'.
11:38 After the "sudden" death of his wife on 30th of April, Louis married the Sekunden time on the 19th of August - more than 5 days. But the failure to observe the one-year mourning period was scandalous enough as it was.
You should spill some tea on all the different curtseys from around the world... that would be cool as I havnt seen a video on the different types and styles of curtseys. I'm the series Victoria Idleheid curtseys to the side with one hand up at her cheat. It was cool to see.
I can't help but wonder if some queens / consorts / other noble women may have arranged for another baby (male) to be available in case she did give birth to a girl. Like in secret they and their ladies would find a commoner either pregnant or already having birthed a male very recently. I mean if they did they would have taken that secret to the grave because it would have been a death sentence if the secret was discovered. It's an interesting thought and there were many crafty women in history.
Like another commenter said, it was the tradition to have the prime minister and other important government officials literally witness the baby coming out of the queens vagina to verify no swap occurred. And while I’m sure that was very effective, it doesn’t exactly prevent anyone from swapping the baby at a later date if the baby seemed sickly (obviously it would be impossible to swap a baby’s gender at that point but if a prince seemed likely to die surely they could replace him with a healthier one)
The (third) House of Bourbon was not founded by Henri IV but by Robert de Clermont (1256-1317) the 10th child of Saint Louis. In the video, this is a bit hasty and one could think that Henri IV became king because he was a descendant of Jeanne, but in 1589 he became king through his male line (he is indeed the eldest male of the Capetians after the death of Henri III and the extinction of the Valois). It so happens that his father Antoine de Bourbon married Queen Jeanne III of Navarre, but this had no bearing on his claim to the French crown.
When everyone does everything wrong, it will never be right. I don't have to worry about anyone getting it right, they are all doing things the wrong way and taking the wrong approach when trying to address the real issues that are going to result in something terrible in time.
The line, "Chicken meat is cheap," after hearing 13,000 soldiers died in battle fighting while he was in France vacationing... I can't remember the last time something angered me so much to hear. Wow.
Part 3 Of My Family History The reason John committed suicide and left to Canada is because he was depressed for most of his life!He hated everything and everyone,and planned to divorce his wife in 1959,11 years before leaving to Canada. He was born in 1939,and at the age of 2 his very traditional and old school parents found a suitor for him to eventually marry,the daughter of the Marquess and Marchioness of Queensbury whom was named Alexandra. The 2 did not get along,and at 16 they were to be married,the year was 1954. He was good friends with Prince Philip,and even pleaded Philip to allow the 2 to divorce. Philip declined and John lost all hope. He secretly moved to Greece,and stayed their for 2 years before his wife finally found him. They began their family in Turkey during 1961-1963 when John was 22-24 and Alexandra was 20-22. John was still depressed,despite having 2 kids named Alex and Joanna and a 'loving' family to go to back in England,it wasn't enough. He again secretly moved away,but this time to Canada where be bought a beautiful chateu. In 1972 he committed suicide. Alexandra took this as a chance to not grieve,but actually demand the Turkish,Greek,English and Canadian councils to each pay the family 400,000 English Pounds. Only the English and Canadian family agreed to pay,and as a gift the English Royal Family gave them 1 million pounds. Alexandra was ecstatic,and left her children who were age 11 and 9 to the United States and bought a glamorous mansion in Hollywood with her new boyfriend,and she decided to become a triple threat. However,karma bitched back on her,as the Vietnam War was declared,she didn't need to fight,but thought it would help with her feminist ways and decided to enlist as a Post Office Guard. However,the post office she was working at was bombed and she died in 1975. Alex and Joanna skipped her funeral,but decided to go on the theme parks that were recently opened in Los Angeles in a vacation that the Marquess of Queensbury took them on. After they came back,Joanna and Alex came to London,where they were granted the title of Lord and Lady. But they didn't act like royals,they partied,had fun and broke many rules,probably due to their care-free life in Turkey. Alex gave up his title and gave nearly all his money to Joanna and charity. He went to Turkey where he converted to Islam and got a new name,Muhammed Alex Ahmed and became an Imam. Ever since then me and my family have been Muslims. He married a Turkish women named Kudheeja in 1990,and had 2 kids(ME in 1992 and my sister Amara in 1993). His sister Sophia married an English man in 1986 and had 5 kids,Louise(1987)Anne(1988)Kaitlyn(1990)Micheal(1991) and Ahmed(1993). Whilst being pregnant with Ahmed,she Divorced her husband and converted to islam. They all moved to Palestine and changed their names,Sophia became Fatima,Louise became Amira,Anne became Zahra,Kaitlyn became Mariam,Micheal became Khaled and Ahmed stayed as Ahmed. In 2001,they moved from Palestine to UAE,and eventually moved to Albania in 2007. They are currently staying there So my family is super crazy,my mom's side is pretty normal,but my dad's side is insane. I have a grandma who left her kids to become a Hollywood actress,a grandad who committed suicide and crazy great grandparents. My DNA is 39% Turkish,10% Syrian,1% Morrocan,3% Indian,23% English,19% German,2% Hungarian & 3% French
Lindsay can you make a video about king louis XV daugther ? It can be a devided into several part like the marie theresia daugther video and many of them are ancestor of the royal in marie theresa era. I think it would be an interesting topic to cover.
I don't think louise xv daughters are the ancestors of most royal houses only 1 daughter do that and her descendant ruled portugal, brazil, spain, italy by the houses of two sicilies and saxony which is interesting but it's going to be a long one
@@cinna_sultan well that's actually from the first bourbon king to the last which is orlean but the comment is saying louise xv daughters but only 1 daughter do that and the rest that you mentioned are really the descendants of first bourbon king to the last but if you insist to expand their ancestry through the first bourbon who ruled navarre or become a count. That would be pretty mych what you've said
@@cyrilmarasigan7108 I'm not sure exactly which daughter of France you're referring to. But the house of Bourbon did have branches in Portugal, Brazil and Spain as well as Italy. *The House of Bourbon-Braganza (Spanish: Casa de Borbón-Braganza; Portuguese: Casa de Bourbon-Bragança) was an Iberian noble house that had its origins in a royal marriage arranged in 1785 between Gabriel of Bourbon, Infante of Spain and Mariana Victoria of Braganza, Infanta of Portugal. Their descendants served as Dukes of Marchena, Durcal, Hernani, and Ansola.* *The House of Bourbon-Parma (Italian: Casa di Borbone di Parma) is a cadet branch of the Spanish royal family, whose members once ruled as King of Etruria and as Duke of Parma and Piacenza, Guastalla, and Lucca. The House descended from the French Capetian dynasty in male line. Its name of Bourbon-Parma comes from the main name (Bourbon) and the other (Parma) from the title of Duke of Parma.* Interestingly, Princess Isabella of Parma was married to a Archduke of Austria (a son of Maria Theresa) who was in fact lesbian with Maria Christina. *The House of Orléans-Braganza (Portuguese: Casa de Orléans e Bragança or Casa de Orleães e Bragança) is a Brazilian imperial house of Portuguese and French origin. It is a cadet branch of the House of Braganza, of Portugal and later Brazil, and the House of Orléans, of France.*

Who were the Catholic relatives who were excluded from the line of succession before naming Sophia, Electress of Hanover and subsequently her son who became George I?

No doubt Sophia had Catholic relations between James I and herself who were excluded from succession.

Great video! I always thought Alexander IV was killed a lot earlier then fourteen.
The song on loop this episode is killing me I wish it was softer or gone or something else
I'm just imagining a three month old king being crowned, screaming the whole time. 'Yep, that's our king. He screams, shits himself, has absolutely no understanding of anything, but he's the son of the last one'.
Especially when the old king’s adult daughter who’s been given the best education is just stood there like ‘you chose the shit machine over me?’ Lol
You should do a video on Queen Marie of Romania learning a lot about her
you make history so easy to remember
i'd like to see more videos on the history of the spanish monarchy
Been watching your videos lately! I love your videos 😍. Thank you for sharing facts! 😄
I like the looking and blinking
23:50 Did-did you just say he told her wife "guarda el coñ0"? Idk why but that seems so funny to me, being a native spanish speaker 🤣
Love hearing your voice
This is exactly the topic I have been wondering about.
It’s ironic that William of Orange promoted religious tolerance given what his image came to represent in Ireland, especially in the North of Ireland.
Always learn something new or interesting! Ty for your dedication!
Oh Lindsay, you know a lot of history !

After the "sudden" death of his wife on 30th of April, Louis married the Sekunden time on the 19th of August - more than 5 days. But the failure to observe the one-year mourning period was scandalous enough as it was.
I'm surprised Henry VI isn't here. He was only 9 months old when he became King of England.
His father was alive when Henry was born. This video is about posthumous children.
You should spill some tea on all the different curtseys from around the world... that would be cool as I havnt seen a video on the different types and styles of curtseys. I'm the series Victoria Idleheid curtseys to the side with one hand up at her cheat. It was cool to see.
Alonso XIII looked a lot older than 54... 54 isn't much older than I am now...
Thanks for the vid!
I’ve been waiting for this one!!!
You get great details. Love your videos.
17:46 - that highlighter be popping tho ✨😄
Thank you, thats the first time i understood about Spain and Franco.
I was wondering if you could tell me how you research. I wanna become as good as u
I subscribe to alot of channels but yours is the only one I really do enjoy. Are you a professer or just love history like me ?
I can't help but wonder if some queens / consorts / other noble women may have arranged for another baby (male) to be available in case she did give birth to a girl. Like in secret they and their ladies would find a commoner either pregnant or already having birthed a male very recently. I mean if they did they would have taken that secret to the grave because it would have been a death sentence if the secret was discovered. It's an interesting thought and there were many crafty women in history.
To stop this from happening, a lot of the time queens would give birth in front of a group of nobles who could vouch the baby was indeed the queens
Like another commenter said, it was the tradition to have the prime minister and other important government officials literally witness the baby coming out of the queens vagina to verify no swap occurred. And while I’m sure that was very effective, it doesn’t exactly prevent anyone from swapping the baby at a later date if the baby seemed sickly (obviously it would be impossible to swap a baby’s gender at that point but if a prince seemed likely to die surely they could replace him with a healthier one)
the random crown folling on the baby
How the heck did cold wine cause pneumonia??🤔🤨
If you inhale it?
@@Catseye189 that's what I thought. Maybe he chugged it and accidentally aspirated it. Who knows
you know whenever someone makes you laugh when ur drinking something and the drink gets in ur airways? i think it to be smth like that
Monarch by birth
The (third) House of Bourbon was not founded by Henri IV but by Robert de Clermont (1256-1317) the 10th child of Saint Louis.
In the video, this is a bit hasty and one could think that Henri IV became king because he was a descendant of Jeanne, but in 1589 he became king through his male line (he is indeed the eldest male of the Capetians after the death of Henri III and the extinction of the Valois). It so happens that his father Antoine de Bourbon married Queen Jeanne III of Navarre, but this had no bearing on his claim to the French crown.
Didn't queen Mary of Scotland because queen at 6 days old ?
What a nice surprise to see you in the video 💕you are amazing
love your videos
Fantastic video!! Thank you!!
I never thought I'd heard "guarda el coño" in one of your videos. Or in any video, ever.
8:30 this makes me feel like Lindsay is gonna give birth to a King
When you said what King Alfonso had said: “guarda el coño” I nearly died 😨💀🤣🤣🤣
When everyone does everything wrong, it will never be right. I don't have to worry about anyone getting it right, they are all doing things the wrong way and taking the wrong approach when trying to address the real issues that are going to result in something terrible in time.
Great video! Some very interesting monarchs!
Very nice video 👍
can you do a segment on joan of arc?
You should do a video on queen Isabella ii
Fantastic episode. Really enjoyed it
The line, "Chicken meat is cheap," after hearing 13,000 soldiers died in battle fighting while he was in France vacationing... I can't remember the last time something angered me so much to hear. Wow.
Part 3 Of My Family History
The reason John committed suicide and left to Canada is because he was depressed for most of his life!He hated everything and everyone,and planned to divorce his wife in 1959,11 years before leaving to Canada. He was born in 1939,and at the age of 2 his very traditional and old school parents found a suitor for him to eventually marry,the daughter of the Marquess and Marchioness of Queensbury whom was named Alexandra. The 2 did not get along,and at 16 they were to be married,the year was 1954. He was good friends with Prince Philip,and even pleaded Philip to allow the 2 to divorce. Philip declined and John lost all hope. He secretly moved to Greece,and stayed their for 2 years before his wife finally found him. They began their family in Turkey during 1961-1963 when John was 22-24 and Alexandra was 20-22. John was still depressed,despite having 2 kids named Alex and Joanna and a 'loving' family to go to back in England,it wasn't enough. He again secretly moved away,but this time to Canada where be bought a beautiful chateu. In 1972 he committed suicide. Alexandra took this as a chance to not grieve,but actually demand the Turkish,Greek,English and Canadian councils to each pay the family 400,000 English Pounds. Only the English and Canadian family agreed to pay,and as a gift the English Royal Family gave them 1 million pounds. Alexandra was ecstatic,and left her children who were age 11 and 9 to the United States and bought a glamorous mansion in Hollywood with her new boyfriend,and she decided to become a triple threat. However,karma bitched back on her,as the Vietnam War was declared,she didn't need to fight,but thought it would help with her feminist ways and decided to enlist as a Post Office Guard. However,the post office she was working at was bombed and she died in 1975. Alex and Joanna skipped her funeral,but decided to go on the theme parks that were recently opened in Los Angeles in a vacation that the Marquess of Queensbury took them on. After they came back,Joanna and Alex came to London,where they were granted the title of Lord and Lady. But they didn't act like royals,they partied,had fun and broke many rules,probably due to their care-free life in Turkey. Alex gave up his title and gave nearly all his money to Joanna and charity. He went to Turkey where he converted to Islam and got a new name,Muhammed Alex Ahmed and became an Imam. Ever since then me and my family have been Muslims. He married a Turkish women named Kudheeja in 1990,and had 2 kids(ME in 1992 and my sister Amara in 1993). His sister Sophia married an English man in 1986 and had 5 kids,Louise(1987)Anne(1988)Kaitlyn(1990)Micheal(1991) and Ahmed(1993). Whilst being pregnant with Ahmed,she Divorced her husband and converted to islam. They all moved to Palestine and changed their names,Sophia became Fatima,Louise became Amira,Anne became Zahra,Kaitlyn became Mariam,Micheal became Khaled and Ahmed stayed as Ahmed. In 2001,they moved from Palestine to UAE,and eventually moved to Albania in 2007. They are currently staying there
So my family is super crazy,my mom's side is pretty normal,but my dad's side is insane. I have a grandma who left her kids to become a Hollywood actress,a grandad who committed suicide and crazy great grandparents. My DNA is 39% Turkish,10% Syrian,1% Morrocan,3% Indian,23% English,19% German,2% Hungarian & 3% French
Love your videos thank you!
Lindsay can you make a video about king louis XV daugther ? It can be a devided into several part like the marie theresia daugther video and many of them are ancestor of the royal in marie theresa era.
I think it would be an interesting topic to cover.
I don't think louise xv daughters are the ancestors of most royal houses only 1 daughter do that and her descendant ruled portugal, brazil, spain, italy by the houses of two sicilies and saxony which is interesting but it's going to be a long one
@@cyrilmarasigan7108
Thats not true.
House of Bourbon had many branches of the countries you've mentioned.
@@cinna_sultan well that's actually from the first bourbon king to the last which is orlean but the comment is saying louise xv daughters but only 1 daughter do that and the rest that you mentioned are really the descendants of first bourbon king to the last but if you insist to expand their ancestry through the first bourbon who ruled navarre or become a count. That would be pretty mych what you've said
@@cyrilmarasigan7108
I'm not sure exactly which daughter of France you're referring to.
But the house of Bourbon did have branches in Portugal, Brazil and Spain as well as Italy.
*The House of Bourbon-Braganza (Spanish: Casa de Borbón-Braganza; Portuguese: Casa de Bourbon-Bragança) was an Iberian noble house that had its origins in a royal marriage arranged in 1785 between Gabriel of Bourbon, Infante of Spain and Mariana Victoria of Braganza, Infanta of Portugal. Their descendants served as Dukes of Marchena, Durcal, Hernani, and Ansola.*
*The House of Bourbon-Parma (Italian: Casa di Borbone di Parma) is a cadet branch of the Spanish royal family, whose members once ruled as King of Etruria and as Duke of Parma and Piacenza, Guastalla, and Lucca. The House descended from the French Capetian dynasty in male line. Its name of Bourbon-Parma comes from the main name (Bourbon) and the other (Parma) from the title of Duke of Parma.*
Interestingly, Princess Isabella of Parma was married to a Archduke of Austria (a son of Maria Theresa) who was in fact lesbian with Maria Christina.
*The House of Orléans-Braganza (Portuguese: Casa de Orléans e Bragança or Casa de Orleães e Bragança) is a Brazilian imperial house of Portuguese and French origin. It is a cadet branch of the House of Braganza, of Portugal and later Brazil, and the House of Orléans, of France.*
@@cinna_sultan It's actually Louise Elisabeth daughter of Louise XV and yes her descendant where married to maria theresa's son and yes she was lesbian and i am aware that the house of bourbon has many descendant that still sits today in power
Great videos. Love history.
Imagine how much trouble could have been avoided if Alfonso XIII had just kept his mouth shut.
Lots of pressure!
Creepy lullaby 😳
Woe to the nation whose king is a child!
Lindsey Holiday what do you know about the Kings of Scotland?
