Episode 17 - The incompetent and inbred Habsburgs

Here at the Luxembourg History Podcast, we never want to upset you... but welcome to the penultimate episode of our first series.

Today, we’re taking a look at the Habsburg Dukes and Duchesses of Luxembourg.

We’ll cover how Luxembourg fell into Habsburg hands; how the Spanish Habsburgs suffered terribly from inbreeding; and how the Austrian Habsburgs could do everything but produce male heirs.
