This Day in Legal History: Switzerland's Federal CharterOn August 1, 1291, the seeds of what would become modern Switzerland were planted with the signing of the Federal Charter, or Bundesbrief, by the cantons of Uri, Schwyz, and Unterwalden. This wasn't the dramatic formation of a nation-state as we think of it today—it was three rural Alpine communities making a legal pact for mutual defense and cooperation in the face of growing Habsburg pressure. The document itself is barely over 300 words long, written in Latin, and mostly focuses on conflict resolution and how not to stab each other in the back (literally and figuratively). But make no mistake, this was a radical assertion of local legal autonomy during a time when imperial rule was the norm.The Federal Charter stands as an early example of federalism—three small political entities entering into a horizontal, legally binding agreement without ceding total sovereignty to a monarch or emperor. In legal terms, it was more covenant than constitution, but its emphasis on mutual aid, lawful arbitration, and collective security laid the groundwork for Switzerland's famously decentralized structure. The signatories agreed to resist foreign judges and unlawful acts of violence, a precursor to ideas we now enshrine in due process and the rule of law.This wasn't a flashy revolution. There were no declarations of independence or fiery speeches. Just some pragmatic legalese scratched onto parchment that said, in effect, “Let's have each other's backs, settle disputes fairly, and not get bossed around by some distant duke.” Over time, this unassuming agreement evolved into the Swiss model of federalism and neutrality that still defines the nation today. It's not just legal history—it's a reminder that even minimalist governance structures can have maximal staying power.Federal judges who issued rulings against Donald Trump's policies have come forward with disturbing accounts of harassment, threats, and violent intimidation. At a “Speak Up For Justice” event, five judges—including Chief U.S. District Judge John McConnell—described receiving death threats, being targets of “swatting” incidents, and even having pizzas delivered to their homes under the name of a murdered judge's son. McConnell, who blocked a major White House funding freeze earlier this year, disclosed that he received six credible death threats and over 400 hostile voicemails. One threat involved someone searching the dark web for his address, saying they wanted "Smith & Wesson to pay him a visit."Judge John Coughenour, who ruled against Trump's effort to limit birthright citizenship, recounted a terrifying police raid on his home due to a false murder report. The FBI later alerted him to a bomb threat. Despite being appointed by Republican President Reagan, Coughenour criticized political attacks on the judiciary as damaging to democratic institutions. The White House called the threats unacceptable and emphasized the importance of judicial safety. On the same day as the event, the Senate confirmed Trump's nominee Gadyaces Serralta to lead the U.S. Marshals Service, who pledged to prioritize judge protection.By mid-June, 408 threats against 297 judges had been logged in the fiscal year. Judge Esther Salas, whose son was murdered in 2020, praised the speaking judges for breaking their silence in defense of judicial independence.US judges recount death threats, 'swatting' after rulings against Trump | ReutersAccording to exclusive reporting done by Reuters, the U.S. State Department plans to allocate up to $7.85 million to support deportation operations in Costa Rica, marking a significant expansion of American-backed regional immigration enforcement. The funds, redirected from an economic development account, will be transferred to the Department of Homeland Security, which will coordinate with Costa Rican authorities to carry out deportations of migrants—especially those transiting through the country en route to the U.S.This arrangement resembles a 2024 Biden-era agreement with Panama, where the U.S. financed detention and deportation of migrants moving northward. The new Costa Rica program is framed as a capacity-building effort that will fund deportation logistics and training on asylum screening. Still, critics warn it could deny vulnerable populations fair access to asylum protections.The plan follows a Trump administration request earlier in the year for Costa Rica to accept 200 migrants from Africa, Asia, and Europe previously detained in the U.S. Many of them remain in Costa Rica, raising questions about long-term outcomes. Details on when deportations will begin or the final destination countries remain unclear.Officials have also acknowledged that some migrants are now traveling south through Costa Rica, fleeing northward crackdowns and the end of Biden's humanitarian parole options. The agreement does not require a direct connection between the migrant and the country to which they may be deported, a detail likely to fuel ongoing human rights concerns.Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has been visiting countries throughout Latin America to explore similar arrangements, suggesting this may be part of a broader regional deportation strategy under Trump's immigration policy.Exclusive: US plans to fund deportations from Costa Rica, document shows | ReutersThe U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit closely examined whether President Donald Trump overstepped his authority by using emergency powers to impose sweeping tariffs on foreign imports. The legal challenge, brought by 12 Democratic-led states and five small businesses, centers on Trump's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA)—a 1977 law typically used for financial sanctions—to justify tariffs against countries like China, Canada, and Mexico. Judges on the panel, many of whom were appointed by Democratic presidents, expressed skepticism, with one noting the law “doesn't even say tariffs.”This is the first major appellate test of Trump's tariff authority, and it comes just as a deadline approaches for new tariff hikes. Trump has used tariffs aggressively in his second term as both an economic and geopolitical tool, citing trade imbalances and foreign inaction on fentanyl as justifications. The challengers argue that only Congress has the constitutional power to impose tariffs, not the president.While the court has allowed the tariffs to remain in place during the litigation, a final ruling could have major implications. A previous lower court decision had already questioned whether IEEPA allows for tariffs tied to longstanding trade deficits. Meanwhile, tariffs have become a significant revenue source, generating over $100 billion so far this fiscal year—money the administration may need after passing new tax cuts.The case won't affect tariffs enacted under other legal provisions, like those on steel and aluminum. Trump's legal team argues that restricting presidential tariff power would hinder trade negotiations. The president has recently secured agreements with the EU and Japan, and is currently working on deals with Mexico and others to avoid further tariff hikes.US appeals court scrutinizes Trump's use of tariffs as trade deadline looms | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, a composer of some note.This week's closing theme is a bright and confident slice of Mozart at his most charming: the Piano Concerto No. 19 in F major, K. 459, first movement, Allegro. Written in 1784 during a period of remarkable productivity, this concerto is one of the six that Mozart composed that year alone—each one displaying a different facet of his evolving style. No. 19 stands out for its buoyancy and rhythmic vitality; it's elegant without being self-serious, energetic but never frantic.Mozart, still in his late twenties, was performing regularly in Vienna, dazzling audiences with works that showcased both his pianistic skill and his compositional inventiveness. This piece was likely written for one of his own concerts, tailored to suit both his technical flair and his subtle wit. The Allegro opens with a playful orchestral theme, crisp and sunny, which soon gives way to the piano's entrance—graceful, witty, and full of character.There's a conversational quality to the movement: the orchestra tosses out ideas, the piano responds, elaborates, jokes, and dances. But beneath its lightheartedness lies Mozart's usual sophistication: unexpected harmonic turns, rhythmic displacements, and crisp motivic development keep the listener alert. The movement doesn't strive for drama or tragedy—it's pure Mozartian joy, rendered in tight musical logic and unfailing charm.As a closer, it offers an ideal farewell note: upbeat, clean, and full of clarity. You leave the room a little taller, a little lighter, like the music has tidied your thoughts and restored your sense of order. Mozart's No. 19 may not be the flashiest of his concertos, but it radiates something rarer: calm confidence, musical humor, and the sense that everything—at least for a few minutes—is exactly where it should be.Without further ado, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 19 in F major, K. 459, first movement, the Allegro.

Hello friends of the History of the Germans Podcast. As I mentioned last episode, I am on holiday now, which means I spend my time reading up about the Habsburg and getting into gear for the next season.In the meantime, I will showcase some podcasts I really enjoy and listen to regularly. And one of those is History Rage. The host, Paul Bavill interviews historians and history podcaster about the one thing they really hope people would stop believing. Interview is such a lame term for what he does, it is more of a therapy session for geeks to let out their rage. Professional historians come armed with evidence, fury, and a burning desire to set the record straight. From “Vikings wore horned helmets” to “Britain stood alone in 1940” and “medieval people never bathed,” this is history with attitude, myth-busting with academic rigor, and truth-telling that pulls no punches. In the last 284 episodes he allowed some of the greatest names in history let off steam, including Roger Moorhouse. In this episode you will hear right now, Roger goes after the focus on Stauffenberg in the remembrance of the resistance against the Nazis inside Germany. By doing so, he argues, we are overlooking equally if not more deserving figures like Henning von Tresckow and the other members of the Kreisauer Kreis. And by the way Paul even allowed yours truly to vent about the perennial pun that the Holy Roman Empire was neither Holy, nor Roman, nor an Empire. That will come out on September 29. So in the meantime here is History Rage with: Stauffenberg: Hero or Hypocrite? The Complex Legacy of the July 20th Plot with Roger MoorhouseI hope you enjoy it.The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season.

Professor Omer Bartov recently wrote an op ed in The New York Times titled “I'm a Genocide Scholar. I Know It When I See It.” The United States Holocaust Memorial Mueseum has cited him as one of the world's leading specialist on genocide. Professor Bartov shares his insight.Omer Bartov Bio: Born in Israel and educated at Tel Aviv University and St. Antony's College, Oxford, Omer Bartov's early research concerned the Nazi indoctrination of the Wehrmacht and the crimes it committed in World War II, analyzed in his books, The Eastern Front, 1941-1945, and Hitler's Army. He then turned to the links between total war and genocide, discussed in his books Murder in Our Midst, Mirrors of Destruction, and Germany's War and the Holocaust. Bartov's interest in representation also led to his study, The "Jew" in Cinema, which examines the recycling of antisemitic stereotypes in film. His more recent work has focused on interethnic relations in the borderlands of Eastern Europe. Recent publications include Erased: Vanishing Traces of Jewish Galicia in Present-Day Ukraine (2007), Anatomy of a Genocide: The Life and Death of a Town Called Buczacz (2018), winner of the National Jewish Book Award, and Tales from the Borderlands: Making and Unmaking the Galician Past (2022). His many edited volumes include Shatterzone of Empires: Coexistence and Violence in the German, Habsburg, Russian, and Ottoman Borderlands (2013), Voices on War and Genocide: Three Accounts of the World Wars in a Galician Town (2020), and Israel-Palestine: Lands and Peoples (2021). Bartov's novel, The Butterfly and the Axe, will be published in 2023.

The big mommy of Europe, we're talking about the one and only female Habsburg ruler, Maria Theresa.

Is there socialist tropical medicine? Why is it important to write state-socialist Eastern Europe in the global history of medicine after 1945? In this episode, Bogdan Iacob tells Jelena Đureinović (RECET) about socialist tropical medicine, its development, purposes and understanding within Eastern Europe. He explains how state-socialist Eastern Europe shaped the assistance to postcolonial states and WHO programs and what discourses and hierarchies emerged in this context. Bogdan C. Iacob is a historian working at the Nicolae Iorga Institute of History at the Romanian Academy of Sciences and the Institute for Habsburg and Balkan Studies at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. His work centres on the role of Eastern European experts in international organisations and post-colonial spaces, and he has contributed to the shifting of paradigm in transnational and global history of medicine, with Eastern Europe in focus.

Heute besuchen wir den Landsitz von Giuseppe Verdi in Sant'Agata – einen Ort, der weniger mit Prunk, dafür umso mehr mit stiller Rebellion zu tun hat. Denn Verdi war nicht nur ein genialer Komponist, sondern auch eine Symbolfigur des italienischen Risorgimento.Geboren unter habsburgischer Herrschaft, machte er die Oper zur Bühne des politischen Aufbegehrens. Werke wie Nabucco oder La Battaglia di Legnano waren mehr als Musik – sie waren Protest in Tönen. Wie reagierten die Habsburger auf diesen musikalischen Widerstand? Warum wurde Verdi zum Hoffnungsträger einer geeinten Nation – ohne je offen zur Revolution aufzurufen? Und was bleibt von ihm – jenseits von Va, pensiero?Eine Folge über Kunst, Zensur, stille Rebellion – und einen Mann, der keine Manifeste schrieb, sondern Opern, die Europa veränderten.+++

Ein stiller Ort – und die Wurzeln der Weltmacht Habsburg. In dieser Folge führt uns unser Weg ins niederösterreichische Lilienfeld, wo eine der stillen, aber entscheidenden Figuren der Habsburger Geschichte ihre letzte Ruhe fand: Cimburgis von Masowien. Wir beginnen die Reise dort, wo viele Pilger vorbeikommen – zwischen Wien und Mariazell – und stoßen im Stift Lilienfeld auf ein kaum bekanntes Grab mit großer Bedeutung: Cimburgis, Ehefrau von Ernst dem Eisernen, Mutter von Friedrich III. und damit Großmutter von Maximilian I., der den Mythos der Habsburger zur globalen Dynastie machen sollte.

O Żydach w Czechach jako pierwszy pisał ich rodak, podróżnik Ibrahim ibn Jakub, który odwiedził Pragę w połowie dziesiątego wieku. Przez kolejny tysiąc lat historia Królestwa Czeskiego była nierozerwalnie związana z Żydami. Dzięki nim państwo się rozwijało, oni sami płacili zwykle za swoją krwią. Do pierwszego wielkiego pogromu doszło w Pradze w XII wieku, ten pod koniec XIV był jednym z największych w ówczesnej Europie.Właśnie ze strachu przed przemocą chrześcijan miał się narodzić legendarny Golem - gliniany olbrzym ożywiony przez kabalistę Jehudę Löwa ben Becalela, praskiego uczonego i rabina, który wcześniej przewodził żydowskiej gminie w... Poznaniu.Pod panowaniem Habsburgów przemocy było mniej, ale kolejni cesarze Żydów to wypędzali, to - gdy okazywało się, że bez nich pada handel i gospodarka - ściągali z powrotem. W przeciwieństwie do Polski, w mieszczańskich i racjonalnym Królestwie Czech nie rozwinął się mistyczny chasydyzm, doskonale rozwijała się natomiast Haskala - żydowskie oświecenie.W XIX wieku zaś wielu Żydów postanawiało wyruszyć drogą asymilacji - tyle, że w ówczesnych Czechach asymilacja mogła biec w dwóch różnych kierunkach - czeskim i niemieckim.Potem czescy żydzi walczyli w armii cesarza na wszystkich frontach Wielkiej Wojny, wielu z nich również w Czechosłowackich Legionach.W pierwszej Republice wydawało się, że w końcu znaleźli swoje miejsce - na tle innych krajów regionu ówczesna Czechosłowacja - a przynajmniej Czechy, były właściwie wolne od antysemityzmu.Ale druga wojna światowa w okupowanych Czechach dla tutejszych Żydów, niezależnie od tego, czy czuli się Żydami, Czechami czy Niemcami, oznaczało Zagładę.Niemiecką okupację przeżył co dziesiąty, pozostałych wypędzili komuniści. Dziś w Czechach zostało ich kilka tysięcy, ale ślady po tym, jak przez tysiąc lat współtworzyli ten kraj, są w wielu miejscach. A najwięcej w samej Pradze.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Jeśli podcast Wam się podoba i chcecie pomóc go rozwijać, możecie zostać Patronami lub Patronkami Czechostacji w serwisie Patronite.

Wie bringt man eine Kaiserin zum Staunen? Ein Mann aus Pressburg hat es geschafft: Wolfgang von Kempelen, höfischer Erfinder, baute im 18. Jahrhundert einen Schachautomaten – den „Schachtürken“.

In mei viert Amsterdam een uniek muziekfestival. Wat past beter bij 750 Jaar Amsterdam dan de uitvoering van heel het werk van Gustav Mahler door de beroemdste orkesten, dirigenten en solisten uit heel de wereld? Mahler, de Weense componist van het 'Fin de Siècle' die Amsterdam als de tweede stad van zijn muziek beschouwde. Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger praten met Thomas de Jonker, musicoloog van het Concertgebouw, over dit festival, Mahlers muziek, zijn leven in turbulente politieke tijden, in een periode van culturele bloei en over zijn unieke band met Nederland en het Concertgebouw.***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door het Concertgebouw en met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show! Als vriend word je uitgenodigd om op zaterdag 17 mei met Jaap en PG in het Mahler Paviljoen op het Museumplein in Amsterdam te genieten van Mahlers Negende symfonie!Heb je belangstelling om in onze podcast te adverteren of ons te sponsoren? Zend een mailtje naar adverteren@dagennacht.nl en wij zoeken contact.Op sommige podcast-apps kun je niet alles lezen. De complete tekst plus linkjes en een overzicht van al onze eerdere afleveringen vind je hier***Gustav Mahler (1860-1911) was de beroemdste musicus van zijn tijd. Nog voor hij 40 werd, had de stokoude keizer Frans Jozef hem benoemd tot chef van de Hofopera in Wenen. Dát was al zeer politiek, want in Oostenrijk-Hongarije hadden joden maar net volledige burgerrechten, dus deze benoeming op de top van de kunsten was een sensatie. Door die artistieke roem en komeetachtige carrière was Mahler doelwit van heel wat vuige kritieken. De jaren tussen 1890 en 1914 leken wel onbezorgd, feestelijk in cultuur en vele contacten, maar de gouden jaren na het Weens Congres van 1815 waren voorbij. Het Habsburgse Rijk wankelde, oorlogen langs de randen braken uit en donderwolken aan de horizon trokken samen.Mahlers werk klinkt daarom soms bijna profetisch. Zijn Wenen bloeide, maar in de krotten en stegen leefden sloebers als Adolf Hitler en Josip Broz Tito en ondergedoken Russen als Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotski en Jozef Stalin. De komende eeuw begon in de sloppen van deze stad.Gustav Mahler was inmiddels een wereldburger van de eerste golven van de globalisering. Hij werd chef van de Opera en de New York Philharmonic, dirigeerde van Ljubljana en Boston tot Rotterdam. Stoomschepen, treinen en zelfs de auto voerden hem over heel de wereld. Amsterdam werd zijn 'tweede stad'. In 1903, 1904, 1906 en 1909 kwam hij zijn eigen symfonieën dirigeren. Zo ontstond een unieke, organische relatie met de musici van het Concertgebouw en dirigent Willem Mengelberg. Samen schreven zij muziekgeschiedenis. Het belette de erg veeleisende 'divo' Mahler overigens niet gedurig te klagen over de regen, de kille wind en het lawaai van de havenstad. Na Mahlers dood in 1911 werd Amsterdam het cultureel centrum waar men hem bleef eren en spelen. In 1920 - meteen na de Vrede van Versailles - bracht de stad de kunstenaars van heel de wereld bijeen voor het eerste 'Mahler Feest'. Het vredesappel tijdens dat festival bewees nog eens hoezeer men politiek en menselijk snakte naar verzoening in een vreedzaam Europa. Dat ontstond pas na de jaren waarin Mahler door de Nazi's verboden was en hij in de vergetelheid leek te raken. Maar niet in Amsterdam en evenmin in New York. Dirigenten als Bernard Haitink en Leonard Bernstein zorgden voor een renaissance van Mahlers liederen en symfonieën. De nieuwe welvaart, de technologie van de elpee en de televisie én de filmkunst maakten Mahler een begrip voor velen. Hij werd de componist van een modern, verzoend Europa. In Amsterdam komt nu in 2025 in het festival de wereld bijeen. Hopelijk ook nu voor een moment en appèl tot vrede en verzoening. Toporkesten uit Chicago, Boedapest, Tokyo en Berlijn, jonge maestro's als Klaus Mäkelä en fameuze dirigenten als Kirill Petrenko komen Mahler dirigeren. ***Verder luisterenIn MAHLER!

Trettioåriga kriget utbröt 1618 genom att tre katoliker kastades ut från ett fönster i Prag i förhoppningen att de skulle dö av fallet. Men de överlevde, och de aktioner som deras habsburgska herrar vidtog för att stävja tjeckernas uppror resulterade i en kedjereaktion av krigsförklaringar och strider som drog in hela världsdelen i konflikten. Först efter tre decennier och miljoner döda – kriget var, sett till Europas folkmängd, mer förödande än första och andra världskriget – blev det äntligen fred.I traditionell svensk historieskrivning är trettioåriga kriget framför allt historien om hur Sverige blev en stormakt, hur Gustav II Adolf och fältherrar som Lennart Torstenson och Johan Banér lade Europa för sina fötter. Men i det här avsnittet tar vi ett annat grepp: vi betraktar kriget underifrån, ur folkets eget perspektiv. Vi möter dagboksskrivande knektar, lidande knektänkor, torterade kyrkoherdar och hunsade borgardöttrar som ville skriva av sig sina personliga trauman. Ty den i särklass viktigaste konfliktytan var inte den mellan Österrike och Sverige, eller Spanien och Nederländerna, eller Frankrike och huset Habsburg. Kriget utkämpades mellan den vanliga befolkningen i tyska städer och byar och de tiotusentals knektar för vilka fälttågen och deras plundring blev ett sätt att leva.I detta avsnitt av podden Harrisons dramatiska historia samtalar Dick Harrison, professor i historia vid Lunds universitet, och fackboksförfattaren Katarina Harrison Lindbergh om trettioåriga kriget, det första egentliga världskriget, som vållade oändligt lidande i Tyskland men förvandlade Sverige till ett av Europas mäktigaste länder.Bild: Plundrande soldater.

From a game for fearless young aristocrats il CALCIO STORICO FIORENTINO was also played on the frozen Arno Rive it became a manifesto for freedom. On February 17, 1530, Florence was besieged by one of the most powerful armies of that time, that of Charles V of Habsburg, the emperor on whose lands, it was said, the sun never set. And while the threatening drums of the besiegers beat, the Florentines, contemptuous of danger, staged in Piazza Santa Croce, well in sight of the enemy, a football match to celebrate Carnival, although the city was exhausted by hunger. This became an event that the historical Florentine memory sculpts and sanctifies. From a game into history, for centuries the defining moment of a collective mood that is not only transmitted through stories, but that every Florentine holds within, was replayed. In the ''Cerimonia del Saluto'' you will hear all the words that bring back the respect for the opponent. When the arena of Calcio shouts the phrase VIVA FIORENZA at the top of its lungs, the emotions are expressed in their fullness and every time a deep affection for Florence is born inside each of us.

De rode draad door alle wilde manoeuvres van Donald Trump is zijn ambitie om de politieke verhoudingen op wereldschaal fundamenteel te veranderen. Hij wil daartoe een deal sluiten met Vladimir Poetin en dan samen met Xi Jinping. En daarbij zijn Volodymyr Zelensky en de Europese Unie alleen maar lastige obstakels. Maar hoe doe je zoiets? Hoe krijg je de 'grootmachten' bij elkaar en kom je tot een succesvol machtsevenwicht? Daarvan kent de wereldgeschiedenis een zeldzaam en uniek voorbeeld. Het Congres van Wenen in 1814-1815 bracht de allergrootste heersers in Europa en wereldwijd bijeen. Keizers, koningen, de tsaar en hun diplomaten streken neer langs de Donau en palaverden. Een leerzaam en inspirerend relaas. Met tal van waarschuwingen uit de finesses van het spel om de macht.‘Wenen' mondde uit in een groot verdrag dat de kaart van Europa geheel opnieuw tekende. Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger vertellen het verhaal van maanden van onderhandelen, spioneren, sjoemelen en ‘the art of the deal'. ***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

De complete tekst plus linkjes en een overzicht van al onze eerdere afleveringen vind je hier***We weten heel veel over Wenen van toen. Dankzij brieven, dagboeken, spionageverslagen en memoires van even kleurrijke als briljante mensen die zich met het machtsspel bemoeiden. Een van hen was een Belgische prins die de lieveling was van de Weense salons, iedereen kende en met ze roddelde: Charles-Joseph de Ligne. Een ander de Pruisische geleerde en ambassadeur Wilhelm von Humboldt, bevriend met Goethe. En de sluwe ras-opportunist Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand, die evengoed koningen en keizers diende als de revolutie.Zo kunnen we op de voet volgen hoe de sleutelfiguur van dit Congres - gastheer Klemens von Metternich - alles zo organiseerde, dat hij de spin in het web was en bleef. Hij zorgde dat het eindresultaat een groot succes werd. Zijn slotverklaring en het verdrag zorgden decennia voor rust en vrede. Daar zijn dan ook belangrijke lessen uit te trekken voor de grootmachten van 2025. Heeft Trump een idee van zo'n wereldwijd machtsevenwicht of zit hij vast in denken over vazallen en het uitruilen van territoria, van Panama tot Groenland en van de Donbas tot Taiwan?Hebben Poetin en Trump basisbeginselen voor een wereldwijd akkoord die leidt tot een nieuwe balans? Metternich had dat en warempel lijkt Xi Jinping nog het meest op hem. Het Congres van Wenen was niet alleen hard werken aan politiek en diplomatie. Het was het ultieme society event. Gekroonde hoofden, kunstenaars, spionnen, charmante dames en journalisten werden door Metternich en het frivole hofleven van Wenen vermaakt met eindeloos entertainment. Bals, opera, banketten, jachtpartijen en salons volgden elkaar maandenlang op. “Hoe loopt het congres? Het congres loopt niet, het danst”, klonk het lachend. Zelfs Beethoven pikte er een graantje van mee! Door een doordachte en innovatieve, rationele organisatie van de onderhandelingen lukte het Metternich om alle neuzen dezelfde kant op te krijgen. De tsaar, het Britse Empire en Habsburg kregen wat zij ambieerden. Pruisen werd een nieuwe grootmacht en ondanks Napoleons nederlaag werd Frankrijk als belangrijk land in ere hersteld. Niemand van de grootmachten bleef gefrustreerd en wraakzuchtig achter. De slachtoffers van destijds zijn verbluffend actueel: Polen, Moldavië, de Balten, Oekraïne, Italië en vooruitstrevende Duitse idealisten. Zo valt er voor ons in 2025 van alles te leren nu de grote wereldspelers als in Wenen toen een nieuw machtsevenwicht lijken te willen opleggen. Heeft de EU haar ambities en rol op orde hierbij?

In a world increasingly marked by isolation, instability, and cultural decay, how can families remain strong, joyful, and rooted in tradition? In this episode, we sit down with Edward Habsburg—Catholic thinker, writer, and Hungary's ambassador to the Holy See—to discuss his new book, Building a Wholesome Family in a Broken World.Drawing from both personal experience and the time-tested wisdom of the Habsburg dynasty, Edward shares practical insights on fostering deep familial bonds, raising children with purpose, and restoring a culture of faith and virtue within the home. We explore the key pillars of a strong family life, the challenges posed by modernity, and why subsidiarity—the principle of governance closest to the family unit—is more important than ever.Join us for a conversation that blends history, faith, and humor as we uncover what it truly means to build a resilient, loving, and wholesome family in today's chaotic world.

The death of Emperor Rudolf in 1612 brought his brother Matthias to the throne. While this marked a period of recovery for the Habsburg dynasty, Matthias's position was precarious. He lacked the same authority as his brother and was already 55 years old, making his grip on power tenuous from the outset. The empire Matthias inherited was one riddled with internal divisions and vulnerabilities. The Turkish truce of 1606, though bringing much-needed peace, had ironically diminished the emperor's international standing. The Austrian Habsburgs' policy of neutrality in European conflicts further sidelined them in international affairs, further weakening the perception of imperial strength.WebsiteWestern Civ 2.0

Amb. Eduard Habsburg joins Steve and Becky to explore the beauty of family life. His book is Building a Wholesome Family in a Broken World: Habsburg Lessons from the Centuries. 

In 1513, Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk—Henry VIII's best friend and notorious rogue—caused an international incident by flirting with Margaret of Austria, a duchess and regent of the Habsburg Netherlands. It all started as innocent courtly love, but Brandon took things too far when he stole a ring from Margaret's finger and refused to return it. Even worse? Henry VIII jokingly hinted at marriage between them! The result? Rumours of a scandalous betrothal shocked Europe and upset Margaret's father, the Holy Roman Emperor. Poor Margaret had to explain herself, while Brandon walked away with no consequences. But this wasn't the first time Brandon caused scandal. From secret marriages to broken promises, he seemed to leave controversy in his wake wherever he went. Was Margaret just another victim of Charles Brandon's recklessness? And did Henry VIII let his best friend get away with too much? Dive into the full story of Margaret and Brandon's ill-fated flirtation—and the scandal that followed—in my latest video! #TudorHistory #HistoricalScandals #CharlesBrandon #MargaretofAustria #RoyalDrama #OnThisDay #CourtlyLove #HabsburgHistory #HistoryMysteries #TudorCourt

In 1864, a young Austrian archduke by the name of Maximilian crossed the Atlantic to assume a faraway throne. He had been lured into the voyage by a duplicitous Napoleon III (the nephew of Napoleon Bonaparte). Keen to spread his own interests abroad, the French emperor had promised Maximilian a hero's welcome. Instead, he walked into a bloody guerrilla war. With a head full of impractical ideals - and a penchant for pomp and butterflies - the new 'emperor' was singularly ill-equipped for what lay in store. In this episode we are looking at this barely known, barely believable episode - a bloody tragedy of operatic proportions, the effects of which would be felt into the twentieth century and beyond. To discuss his life is today's guest, Edward Shawcross, author of “The Last Emperor of Mexico: The Dramatic Story of the Habsburg Archduke Who Created a Kingdom in the New WorldSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Archduke Franz Ferdinand, as heir to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, was one of the most important men in the world. But he was a lonely man, not helped by the fact that, in spite of custom and tradition, he had chosen for wife Sophie, an aristocrat who nonetheless was not noble enough to marry a Habsburg Archduke. Public humiliation, enforced by the Emperor himself, would plague them for the rest of their lives. In an attempt to show a Habsburg presence in the Balkans, Franz Ferdinand and Sophie had been convinced to undertake a military inspection in Sarajevo, amidst rising nationalist tensions in the area. And for once, they would be allowed to perform their public duties together, as a couple. But, after the electricity went down in his train on the way there, the Archduke could feel something sinister was in the making… Join Tom and Dominic in the third part of our series on the assassination that sent millions of men to war, as they discuss how Archduke Franz Ferdinand became heir, his strained relationship with his uncle, the Emperor, shooting parties with Kaiser Wilhem II and George V, and why he went to Sarajevo with his wife, Sophie… _______ *The Rest Is History LIVE in the U.S.A.* If you live in the States, we've got some great news: Tom and Dominic will be performing throughout America in November, with shows in San Francisco, L.A., Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Boston and New York. *The Rest Is History LIVE at the Royal Albert Hall* Tom and Dominic, accompanied by a live orchestra, take a deep dive into the lives and times of two of history's greatest composers: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Ludwig van Beethoven.
