      I thought Luxembourg was owned by the Austrian Habsburgs for a few decades (1700/1714-1790s) before Napoleon occupied it. Then the Congress of Vienna gave the duchy to William I of the Netherlands which also included the Austrian Netherlands in 1814-15.
      When that part of the Netherlands rebelled and won its independence (different religion and culture) in 1830, the Dutch king insisted that Luxembourg was his dynastic property. By doing so, his dynasty continued to rule Luxembourg until 1890 when the exiled Duke of Nassau inherited Luxembourg.
      Ironically, the second grand duke pf this house only had daughters but his two eldest daughters became the next rulers. That is how Luxembourg became independent.

    There is a video showing some old border-conflict zones, including a railway stretch which was either German or Luxembourgian. Such areas of conflict show on one hand that people had to cooperate, on the other hand that old borderlines were completely unpractical.
    An area of totally screwed *old* borderlines between smaller units can be found many places in Germany and Scandinavia. One really weird is the Holstein region before 1864 (when Bismarck took possession of that area, being inhabited by mostly germanspeaking).

    Very good video. But perhaps making clear what the the holy roman empire was, could help identify what Luxembourg is. Basically envision a proto-europe. Where you have 50+ little and bigger states/countries. Some as big as just a city (city states) and other huge (like Austria). Each region with their own history. Forming little melting pots of cultures that shifted constantly due to those counties (sub divisions in the country) being swapped due to constant internal wars inside the holy roman empire. With the unification into a real German empire, one language was pushed. But Luxembourg, due to its special circumstances, kept its local developed dialect. Again dialects are something that is very very common in the region. In Belgium for example, you have hundreds of dialects, each with their own grammar, unique words and pronunciation. This is not taught at schools, so it is slowly disappearing. But Luxembourg managed to keep hold of it's unique local developed melting-pot culture.

      In the 1960s all European countries were decolonizasing in Africa except Portugal. Instead Portugal tried to hold onto Angola and Mozambique along with it's other minor colonies. Which was a mistake. Soon the locals of the colonies got so angry that they began to rebel forcing portugal to send many troops to fight them. However portugal had a small population so it had to hire mercenaries as well. After conscripting practically everyone the last few people who didn't want to be conscripted fled to us. Portugal used to be quite a rich country until then when it was spending way to much on it's military which led to it's collapse in 1974. By then we had dozens of Portuguese refugees many for political reasons and religious reasons. But some for economic reasons. Today the portuguese here tend to do low paid jobs such as toilet cleaning etc.

      Dr Lydia Virginia Woodruff is holding a very high prestige and reputation in personal financial management. I’m happy you mentioned her. My wife recommended her to me after investing 3 grand and she really helped us in times of this bad pandemic crisis. I’m close to my retirement and this has been and well remain a good survival for me

    What a strange map is used: it looks like the "Afsluitdijk" in the Netherlands is not a dike but a piece of land. Zeeland in the Netherlands is also wrongly drawn, like everything else. Then: how can you not mention that upon the death of King William III of Orange-Nassau of the Netherlands, not having a male heir, Luxembourg became an a Grand-Duchy under the Von Nassau-Weilburg ??? You go from the King of the Netherlands to mentioning "the Duchess" without explaining what happened and why all of a sudden there is a Duchess. It's all very inaccurate.

    You forget one thing....the separation of the Netherlands is due to discussion of the crown in Holland. Because there was no male successor the Dutch went for a queen and the Lux refused that . So since that time there was a separation.....and what also in important . The Be Be Lux, the cooperation of Belgium, Netherlands and Luxemburg was the ground a the EC.......

    The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is always an interesting story because it was at the time the same like African nations from their colonial powers during the 20th century. They want their independance, not for cultural or etnetic reasons but for the people. The only thing now that's unknown is the future because it's the only remaining Grand Duchy and who knows how long this is gonna stand.

    • @apveening
      @apveening 2 роки тому

      At a rough guess, it will stand about as long as the other constitutional monarchies in the BeNeLux. And don't worry about the exact title, there are some independent principalities that are smaller.

      ​@@apveening Belgium as we know it now can be gone in the next 50 years, because of internal affairs. There is a large audience for the Flemish right movement, which supports a split of Flanders & Wallonia. Now, I do think that The Netherlands is more stable but I can see them also getting uprisings and being a republic in the coming years. For Luxembourg, the Gran Duchy will likely get also dissolved, due to Germany & France both not having a kingdom for many years now. I'm pretty sure that, if Belgium splits, Wallonia & Luxembourg will merge into one country. But that's a big scenario, and maybe not going to happen.

      @@BoyFromBelgium99 dude, Luxembourg will never join Belgium or Wallonia, also you're crazy if you think that Flanders can actually leave Belgium, they would have to pay back their debt to Wallonia. Note that I'm not Belgian, I'm Luxembourgish and no one here wants to join Belgium, let alone Wallonia, I mean we might as well shoot ourselves in the foot. We are Luxembourgish, we speak Luxembourgish and other languages and we have better living standards than you guys. We will never join another country voluntarily.
