Francis Henry Gribble

The life of the emperor Francis Joseph (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In order to clear the way, and set the stage for the drama of the Emperor Francis Joseph's life, we must go back to the dissolution of that Holy Roman Empire of which the Emperor of Austria was, at the end, the titular head. Happily, we have not very far to go. The Holy Roman Empire-in fact, as a cynic has said, neither Holy nor Roman, and scarcely worthy to be called an Empire-collapsed in the Napoleonic wars. The Battle of the Nations at Leipzig, the "world's earthquake" at Waterloo, the Congress of Vienna: none of these things availed to set the Holy Roman Empire on its feet again.
