Gossips about Kings
Early modern Spain, the Habsburgs and the Bourbons.
00:00:00
In the 16th and 17th centuries, Spain was ruled by the Habsburg dynasty.
00:00:15
Carlos I and Felipe II were the most important Habsburg kings.
00:00:21
In their reigns, Spain became an enormous international empire.
00:00:28
In the 18th century, Spain was ruled by the Bourbon dynasty.
00:00:33
Felipe V and Carlos III were the most important Bourbon kings.
00:00:37
Who said history is boring?
00:00:43
Today I'm going to tell you some curiosities and gossips about the kings who ruled Spain
00:00:45
from the 16th until the 18th centuries, the Habsburgs and the Bourbons.
00:00:51
Let's start with the Habsburgs.
00:00:57
It is known by all the characteristics all the kings in this dynasty had in common.
00:00:59
Known as the Habsburg jaw, which consisted of a facial deformity in the jaw due to inbreeding,
00:01:06
this is, marriages between biological relatives.
00:01:13
Let's start with Carlos I, who was born in a toilet, yes, you heard me right, in a toilet.
00:01:19
Juana la Loca and his husband, Felipe el Hermoso, were in a party in Belgium on the 23rd of
00:01:26
February in 1500.
00:01:33
At night, Juana started to feel sick and went to the toilet, and there is where little Carlos
00:01:36
was born.
00:01:41
Felipe II, Carlos I's son, was the next king in Spain.
00:01:44
He was the most powerful monarch in this time of history.
00:01:50
El Escorial and the famous Silla de Felipe II, from where he could see the construction
00:01:54
site, are very famous, but this king had a dark side too.
00:02:00
He arrested his own son on the 18th of January in 1568, and after six months of several hunger
00:02:07
strikes, as you can imagine, he died.
00:02:14
Actually, some rumors say he was poisoned by his very own father.
00:02:18
Unfortunately, the CSI at this time did not exist.
00:02:24
The next king on the throne was Felipe III, who was proclaimed king the very same day
00:02:31
his father, Felipe II, died, on the 13th of September, 1598.
00:02:36
He was a very lazy king, unable to rule the country on his own, and counted on some validos,
00:02:43
such as the duque de Lerma and the duque de Oceda, to control the kingdom for him.
00:02:50
And here comes the lover, Felipe IV, who really, really loved women.
00:02:57
He had 12 children in total, 7 with his first wife and 5 with the second.
00:03:03
He had between 30 to 60 bastards, these are children who are born out of the marriage,
00:03:10
recognizing only 2 as his own.
00:03:15
Most of the women he was with were abandoned by him, and decided to go to a convent.
00:03:19
And last, but not least in the Hasbro dynasty, Carlos II.
00:03:28
This poor king was tortured, trying to help him to have children, but the doctors got
00:03:33
the opposite effect, he got extremely weak, and died with no hairs.
00:03:38
Let's move on now to the Bourbons.
00:03:44
Felipe V, now that nobody is listening, he was nuts, he was crazy.
00:03:47
He thought he was a frog.
00:03:54
He let his toenails grow so long, that it was impossible for him to walk properly.
00:03:57
He had a recurrent dream.
00:04:03
There were lots of nights in which he tried to kill a ghost, who chased him with a sword.
00:04:06
As I said, he was completely nuts.
00:04:12
His son, Carlos III, was nothing compared to him.
00:04:15
He had lots of routines in his life.
00:04:20
He got up every day at 6 o'clock in the morning, at 7 he had breakfast, a cup of chocolate,
00:04:22
a big glass of water.
00:04:28
From 8 to 11, he worked.
00:04:31
He always had the same dinner at 9.30.
00:04:34
He used to have a soup, some beef, a raw egg and a salad with water, sugar and vinegar.
