George was Prince of Denmark as was Queen Alexandra 😶 Albeit it few centuries later. And Denmark with Coberg had massive effect on 19 th century politics
I feel so bad for Anne it's horrible that she lost all of her children. I can't imagine losing one child let alone all 17. She was so lucky to have the only husband who didn't want to be King or any of her power.
I lost my first child, my only daughter during my final trimester. Losing her was unimaginable pain, I can't imagine the suffering that Anne went through. 😢
And at least one of the pregnancies was with twins. So 17 pregnancies, but at least 18 children lost. I cant imagine the pain Anne and her husband went through.
@@RavenIdril2966I would. She is only ever depicted or talked about as the fat, old, sickly, lesbian queen who let people push her around and tell her what to do when actually she was a brilliant leader. Intelligent, strategic, a patron of the arts and of science. She fought of the Jacobites and many foreign invasions. And she was a queen in her own right and a ruler of multiple countries that she united as one place in her own right. She deserves way more accolades and praise and attention as a monarch and not just to be known as the fat old sickly lesbian.
@@RavenIdril2966I would. She is only ever portrayed as the fat, old, ugly, lesbian queen who let people push her around.

Another Fun Fact,Both Elizabeth, Queen Of Bohemia And Anne, Princess Royal And Princess Of Orange Were Named After The Last Queens Of The Previous Dynasties, Elizabeth,Eldest Daughter Of James VI &I After Elizabeth I And Anne, Eldest Daughter Of George II After Queen Anne!!! 😏😀😊
I had hydrocephalus as a child, just like Anne's son. I have a shunt in my head from the surgery I had at age two. My condition was brought on by my mother having a traumatic delivery with me. She was in labor with me for three days. This was back in the mid 80s. I can't imagine what Anne went through with her own delivery that caused her son to have hydrocephalus...
I legit almost had to stop listening at some point. Her childhood already wasn't a walk in the park and then loosing one child after another - absolutely gut wrenching 🫤
@@shanachayadavison5857 Mary certainly struggled, but she never lost a child and only had a fake pregnancy. Anne had 7 miscarriages, five stillborns, lost four babies in infancy and lost her last child age 10, I genuinely don’t think anyone comes close to that amount of sheer loss. Not to mention the physical toll 17 pregnancies in 16 years takes on a woman. She had multiple miscarriages and/or stillbirth a year. She lost four children, a miscarriage, a stillbirth and her two daughters dying of smallpox in one year. It’s just tragic
I used to live in an apartment complex called “Windsor court apartments.” The street names of the apartments included “Queen Anne Court” “Queen Victoria Court” “Queen Mary Court” “Queen Elizabeth Court” I got to live on the “Queen Anne Ct” street for a couple of years.
Another tuesday another GREAT video with Lindsay! You're the Queen of narration and history! All those AI showd have NOTHING on you! Keep up the good work! Anne and George deserved MUCH better in the children department.
I love when you do in person footage for your videos. BBC needs to give you a show where you tour royal sites and talk about the royals who lived/stayed/visited there.
@@lilacgirl-z8w Considering what happened to Eleanor of Castille, who had sixteen children, it may be. From what we know, Anne's health wasn't as strong as her sister's regardless.
@@TheLionPear Well, one of the daughters of King Miguel, who married a prince of Bourbon-Parma, had nine pregnancies, and all of them were miscarriages. Not even Anne had this many, as outside of five, her other children were either miscarried, including twins, or stillborn.
Hi Lindsay, thanks so much for releasing this video.also I wanted to let you know that I watched The Favorite on Saturday, so that I could prepare for this video ❤..thank you once again for releasing this video
Lindsay!!! I cannot thank you enough for slowing down the cadence of your reading. I think I can actually sort of follow the story!!! ( family history of the subjects are so complicated if you’re not super familiar. Even a little slower be good. I need a nano second more yo take in all the info you’re throwing down. 😊😊❤❤) love your channel soooo much!!! ❤❤❤
I recently moved to the pacific northwest and there's beautiful little reminders of Queen Anne on any patch of green ☺️ you're bound to stumble upon some Queen Anne's lace on just about any natural trail lol
I find that Anne could be interpreted as a great delegator she had quite possibly the best ministers of any British Monarch, which she would have no problem removing from office when they overstepped or erred which to me points to her being a great delegator which is a quality we don’t appreciate as much even though it’s a amazing quality in a leader. I also think she was the only Stuart that truly respected understood and developed their role as constitutional monarch she focused on image and mostly left the government of he realm to her competent ministers. I’m of the school of historical thought that Anne is a victim of sexism as most of her qualities are traditionally feminine (calm, quiet, pious, responsible and loyal) contrast to Elizabeth so who displayed traditionally male qualities (headstrong, boisterous, courageous).
Anne Arundel County was named for a Countess of Baltimore not Queen Anne. Annapolis was originally named for Anne Arundel but then changed to being named for Queen Anne
Another brilliantly entertaining and informative video, and I can't believe that your next video will be about the sidelined 40 or so Catholic candidates - I've honestly wondered about this several times before and even stopped this video to zoom into the family tree you showed (aha, the claims are principally through some fecund (mostly female Catholic-marrying) generations descending from Elizabeth Stuart through Electress Sophia's older siblings - of course!!). Anyway, can't wait for your next video exploring these branches of the European monarcho-aristo complex :)
These nobles were born without the benefit of modern medicine, only the strongest seemed to survive. These kings, queens went through so much loss. How did they manage? Did their beliefs in a supreme being and a paradise keep them going? I guess their ambitions too?
Mary I and Mary II being outshined by their youngest sister is kinda of an interesting coincidence 😅 I feel so bad for Anne... Loosing 17 children 😢 At least people are beginning to give her some credit! ❤
Anne sure was a great Queen like her sister. Unifier of Great Britain and progenitor of the British Empire, putting the seeds of dominance for her country in Europe and the world, all while she had the bad luck of all these miscarriages and children that were either stillborn or didn't live enough to reach adulthood. Shame that she and her husband were condemned by history until more recent times, and it also didn't help that Sarah Churchill spread smearing rumours about her because she distanced herself from her after Anne had enough of her callous attitude. Great job as always, Lindsay! I always wondered: how can you make profiles of royals this detailed yet so clearly visible? I tried on Canva, which I often use for miniatures, but whenever I tried to use the image of a royal's profile for a project, the texts would be too small when it's saved or used in a video editor, and it also doesn't help that the space is limited and wouldn't fit for those who have many children and consorts. I would want to make history projects about rulers like these, but I wouldn't know how to do it precisely.
Nice to hear more from this era. There is so much about the Tudors, that I know alot of the information by heart. Looking forward to learning more. Thx
Queen Elizabeth 1 = The last monarch of the house of TUDOR Queen Anne = The last monarch of the house of STUART Queen Victoria = The last monarch of the house of HANOVER
@SEGASister technically the late Queen Elizabeth II was the last of Windsor as King Charles III is Mountbatten-Windsor. So kind of a new house altogether :)
Thank you for another great video. If anyone wants a fictional version of this story, I recommend the BBC's The First Churchills. It's very low budget by modern standards, but the acting and writing are superb. Susan Hampshire as Sarah Churchill is everything.
Found out some years ago that Queen Ann died on my birthday August the first something I found interesting and grim .She deserves. Better reputation Queen Ann.

Can you please do a video of Catherine-Rosalie Gerard Duthé (1748-1830),alternately Duthe or Du The, was a celebrated French courtesan. A companion of French kings and European nobility, she has been called "the first officially recorded dumb blonde." Duthé was a frequently requested subject for portraits, including partial and full nud€$, many of which still exist in museums and private collections.
“… [William Duke of Gloucester, Anne’s only surviving child]’s parents were second cousins…” Not an expert on Anne’s medical case, and I haven’t looked to see if Anne or her husband George had prior inbreeding in their respective family histories. But straight-up second cousins have an inbreeding coefficient of 3.125%. (For reference, first cousins have a coefficient of 12.5%, I.e. 4x as inbred.) I think it’s more interesting to look at the fact that Anne, her sister Mary, and THEIR MOTHER, Anne Hyde, ALL had more trouble than usual producing live or robust babies. Their father’s brother, Charles II, had no problem producing healthy children with all of his mistresses. Though the three pregnancies with his wife were all stillborn… I’m wondering if either 1.) whatever problem with fertility was occurring entered the family with Anne Hyde, AND/or 2.) the Stuart men, Charles II and James II had some X-chromosomal fertility weakness that only “entered the chat” when they procreated with a woman with the same weakness, ex. Anne Hyde but not Mary of Modena. Hmm… By no means an expert, but I think it makes sense to consider looking higher up the chain that Anne and George of Denmark’s consanguinity. 3.125% is *low*, all things considered. For example, the majority of U.S. states and territories ban or require case-by-case genetic review of first cousin marriages; to my knowledge, there are no U.S. laws about second cousin marriages. (Not weighing in on the practice, just stating the law.) And while Anne’s case stands out because it was SO awful (all the little rabbits :(), her mom’s and her sister’s bad luck is similarly, unusually extreme for the period and worth considering.
Mary of Modena had 12 pregnancies before her son James was born, so I think the possibility that the problem was with the Stuart men after Charles II (maybe including him, depending on his partner like his wife Catherine of Braganza) is very possible. Both of James II's wives had multiple miscarriages/stillbirths/infant deaths
I think Americans place too much emphasis on inbreeding in the Royal families of Europe. They were no more inbred than the vast majority of the population at the time. For centuries before the industrial revolution, something like 90% of the population lived in small rural communities - they were very insular and most hardly ever went further than the next village all their lives. They were all related to each other in some way as they had been marrying within the same small gene pool for hundreds of years. Which is probably why it has always been legal to marry first cousins here in the UK. Were there some glaring examples in Royal history? Of course - but they are few and far between, considering the thousands of Royal marriages that had no problems. There are other reasons for unfortunate deaths besides inbreeding.
@@reyisawesome ::nods:: I remember a Lucy Worsley documentary of Henry VIII, suggesting that he may have had some kind of blood antibody issue? ::goes researching:: “Kell antigen system”. By *no* means an expert here, but as Lucy explained it: If Henry VIII had this K1 antigen and his wife/mistress did not, during their first pregnancy, her body would develop antibodies to fight off the antigen. Baby #1 has normal odds of survival. But in all subsequent pregnancies, the woman’s blood now has K1 positive antibodies. And 90+% of babies (at present) are born K1 negative. So Mom’s antibodies can attack Baby’s blood cells, causing ::research again:: “autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA)” or “hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN)”. TL;DR: If Henry VIII was K1+, the only fair shot his K1- partners had was Baby #1; in Babies 2-♾️, Mom’s antibodies against Henry’s K1+ blood are going to attack the fetus, making it sickly or killing it outright :(. If the same situation was active in James II and (again, not an expert) compounded in his daughters, Mary II and Anne I, their horrific fertility records make sense. ::exasperated hand gestures:: Their own bodies were attacking their babies.
since you called Q. Mary "Queen of Demure" i was expecting Q. Anne to be "Brat Queen" lol. i have a feeling she would relate to Girl, so confusing by Charli XCX
Out of curiosity, what would Anne and Mary had been called when they were children and what would Anne's daughters have been called? Great video as always!!
Before their marriages they were known as ‘her highness, lady (Anne/Mary)’ and after their marriages they were Her Royal Highness Princess Anne of Denmark and Mary of Orange respectively. Anne’s daughters would have been referred to as ‘The Lady ___’ until they married and took their husband’s titles. Both Anne’s short-surviving daughters were referred to in this way before they died
I would argue that her overall worldwide impact was evil due to her strong support of the 1712 “Asiente de Negros,” a contract giving England exclusive rights to “supply Spanish America with African slaves for 30 years.” The human misery that resulted from this is incalculable.
Lindsay I loveeee ypur videos and I wanted to ask you if you coudl make a video about suor juana ines de la Cruz that is know as the first feminist in south america
If you ask me ,Anne married a wonderful man. He was a devoted husband and very supportive. If you ask me , he was light years ahead of the men in that era.
Not particularly, although he was a descendant of her favourite, Sarah Churchill. Remember, neither Anne or her sister had any surviving children, nor did they have any surviving siblings, so no one is that closely related to them
Her father did have an affair with John Churchill's sister and had 4 children by him one of whom is an ancestor of the Spencer family but I'm not sure they are also ancestors of the Spencer-Churchill family whom Winston was a member of
Holding out hope for a Queens of the World video on Zenobia, the Queen of Palmyra. Known for her bold rebellion against the Roman Empire, she expanded Palmyra's territory, conquering Egypt and much of the Eastern Roman Empire, including Syria and parts of Anatolia, after the death of her husband, King Odaenathus. Zenobia even declared herself and her son rulers of these lands, directly challenging Roman authority.

I think George truly loved Anne, I can't image the pain of sitting alone together crying over their dead children
I was thinking the same thing, as sad as it is, to have someone share your grief with is an incredibly strong bond to be envied
Courtier: Uh, George, don’t you want to be a king or overthrow your wife or something?
George: *sips wine and continues reading his book* Nah
Ain't nobody got time for that. 😂
Losing 17 children is insane. I can’t imagine how much pain Anne had to suffer because of this.
And she probably had people whispering about her not being able to produce an heir. So sad
And at least one of the pregnancies was with twins. So 17 pregnancies, but at least 18 children lost. I cant imagine the pain Anne and her husband went through.

Which is probably why it has always been legal to marry first cousins here in the UK.
Were there some glaring examples in Royal history? Of course - but they are few and far between, considering the thousands of Royal marriages that had no problems.
There are other reasons for unfortunate deaths besides inbreeding.
@@reyisawesome ::nods:: I remember a Lucy Worsley documentary of Henry VIII, suggesting that he may have had some kind of blood antibody issue? ::goes researching:: “Kell antigen system”. By *no* means an expert here, but as Lucy explained it:
If Henry VIII had this K1 antigen and his wife/mistress did not, during their first pregnancy, her body would develop antibodies to fight off the antigen. Baby #1 has normal odds of survival. But in all subsequent pregnancies, the woman’s blood now has K1 positive antibodies. And 90+% of babies (at present) are born K1 negative. So Mom’s antibodies can attack Baby’s blood cells, causing ::research again:: “autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA)” or “hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN)”.
TL;DR: If Henry VIII was K1+, the only fair shot his K1- partners had was Baby #1; in Babies 2-♾️, Mom’s antibodies against Henry’s K1+ blood are going to attack the fetus, making it sickly or killing it outright :(. If the same situation was active in James II and (again, not an expert) compounded in his daughters, Mary II and Anne I, their horrific fertility records make sense. ::exasperated hand gestures:: Their own bodies were attacking their babies.
Please do a video on Queen Tamar the Great of Georgia (Caucasus)!
I asked for this video on one of your yt lives! with Mary the second thank you for doing them!
What a woman 😃. Thank you for putting Anne’s life into perspective. 🦘🦘🇦🇺🇦🇺
Nice job!
Have you ever thought about doing a video of Isabella II of Spain.
since you called Q. Mary "Queen of Demure" i was expecting Q. Anne to be "Brat Queen" lol. i have a feeling she would relate to Girl, so confusing by Charli XCX
Handel “composed a number of recognizable songs?” That’s the understatement of the century.
Love from england
Oh this was an excellent video I just saw the movie and it was fabulous
Excellent video comme d'habitude
Poor Queen Anne! She loved her subjects and hated war.
I love your content and would like to see a video on out last maori Kuini(Queen) Te Atairangi Kaahu
Let's do the Hanover dynasty of Germany and England.
What would have happened if Anne married George of Hanover?
It's a shame her reign was overshadowed by that of her successors, the Hanoverians.
I love these historical stories!! How sad for her in being a mother😔
hi!! at 17:03 theres a missing plugin still a great video tho :)
Anne is a beautiful name
Out of curiosity, what would Anne and Mary had been called when they were children and what would Anne's daughters have been called?
Great video as always!!
Before their marriages they were known as ‘her highness, lady (Anne/Mary)’ and after their marriages they were Her Royal Highness Princess Anne of Denmark and Mary of Orange respectively.
Anne’s daughters would have been referred to as ‘The Lady ___’ until they married and took their husband’s titles. Both Anne’s short-surviving daughters were referred to in this way before they died
She and Elizabeth the 1 had a strong parallel in the end
who else like Lindsay
I would argue that her overall worldwide impact was evil due to her strong support of the 1712 “Asiente de Negros,” a contract giving England exclusive rights to “supply Spanish America with African slaves for 30 years.” The human misery that resulted from this is incalculable.
Lindsay I loveeee ypur videos and I wanted to ask you if you coudl make a video about suor juana ines de la Cruz that is know as the first feminist in south america
Queen Anne's lace isn't just symbolic of infertility. (Although it's not as safe as modern methods of fertility control.)
If you ask me ,Anne married a wonderful man. He was a devoted husband and very supportive. If you ask me , he was light years ahead of the men in that era.
17 pregnancies 😮
I wonder if Anne perhaps had PCOS?
Lindsay, i don't know if you did a video of Georgiana Duchess of Devonshire. If you didn't, please do so 😊❤
Was Winston Churchill related to this Queen?
Not particularly, although he was a descendant of her favourite, Sarah Churchill.
Remember, neither Anne or her sister had any surviving children, nor did they have any surviving siblings, so no one is that closely related to them
Not that close to them
Her father did have an affair with John Churchill's sister and had 4 children by him one of whom is an ancestor of the Spencer family but I'm not sure they are also ancestors of the Spencer-Churchill family whom Winston was a member of
Thanks👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🍂🍁🍂
Could you do a video on the princes of lichtenstein?
Holding out hope for a Queens of the World video on Zenobia, the Queen of Palmyra. Known for her bold rebellion against the Roman Empire, she expanded Palmyra's territory, conquering Egypt and much of the Eastern Roman Empire, including Syria and parts of Anatolia, after the death of her husband, King Odaenathus. Zenobia even declared herself and her son rulers of these lands, directly challenging Roman authority.
Did this get reuploaded?
Another Fun Fact,Both Elizabeth, Queen Of Bohemia And Anne, Princess Royal And Princess Of Orange Were Named After The Last Queens Of The Previous Dynasties, Elizabeth,The Eldest Daughter Of James VI & I After Elizabeth I,And Anne,The Eldest Daughter Of George II After Queen Anne!!!😉😏😀🥰😊☺️
