3 Queens of The Netherlands: Wilhelmina, Juliana & Beatrix Aug 29, 2023

Show notes

Male-preference primogeniture and salic law have meant that most European monarchs have been men. Queen regnants are exceedingly rare in history. But for 90 years from 1890 to 1980 The Netherlands was reigned over by three successive Queens. Wilhelmina inherited the throne after the early deaths of all three of her brothers, Juliana because she was an only child and Beatrix because she was the eldest of 4 sisters. These Queens were heroes of the first and second world wars, the first female billionaires, courted controversy with their choices of husbands and friends and won the admiration of their people with their down-to-earth style. Let’s meet the three Queens of the Netherlands. Queen Wilhelmina, Queen Juliana & Queen Beatrix.

Queen Guinevere & The Women of Arthurian Legend Aug 15, 2023

Show notes

Queen Guinevere, Morgan le Fey and Nimue, the mystical lady of the lake have been cast as heroins, virtuous women and wicked femme fatals by the many people who have retold the legend of King Arthur over 1500 years. I'll sketch the highlights of the story, galloping past the oft retold battles and quests of the knights of the round table and focusing on the many parts women had to play. Then take a look at the way the legend morphed through the passage of time and some of the reverberation the inhabitants of the Camelot have had on real history.

Queens Who Had The Most Children Aug 08, 2023

Show notes

If you think the kids in your family are a lot to handle, imagine having over a dozen of them! That was the reality for the royal women in today’s video. The primary expectation of Queens and other well born women of the past was to have as many children as possible to secure their husband’s dynasty and bare a few spares to be used in advantageous political marriages. Their fertility was their life. They were married early and caught on a treadmill of pregnancy, birth, handing their babies over to be raised by wet-nurses and tutors, and hoping back into bed to conceive again as soon as possible. Surely they looked forward to the relief of menopause. Here are 9 Queens and Empresses who bore an extraordinary number of children:

Mumtaz Mahal, Mughal Empress Consort - 14 Children

Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, Queen Consort of Great Britain & Ireland - 15 Children

Anna Jagellonica, Queen Consort of Germany, Bohemia & Hungary - 15 Children

Eleanor of Castile, Queen Consort of England - 16 Children

Keran, Queen Consort of Armenia - 16 Children

Maria Theresa, Holy Roman Empress - 16 Children

Maria Carolina of Austria, Queen Consort of Naples and Sicily - 17 Children

Anne, Queen of Great Britain - 18 Children

Darejan Dadiani, Queen Consort of Georgia - 23 Children

The 6 to 8 Wives of Ivan the Terrible Aug 01, 2023

Show notes

What 16th century megalomaniac monarch magnified the power of his nation, ordered the violent executions of thousands of his own people, became obsessed with fathering male heirs and went through at least 6 wives, several of whom were murdered? Why Ivan the Terrible, Tsar of Russia of course! In fact he outdid Henry VIII of England in many terrible ways, including having not 6 wives but as many as 8. The exact number is still debated by historians. But 6 or 8, they would all come to regret their wedding vows. Let’s meet the women who were unfortunate enough to call one of the most evil men in history their husband.

Anastasia Romanovna

Maria Temryukovna

Marfa Sobakina

Anna Koltovskaya

Anna Vasilchikova

Vasilisa Melentyeva
