The Hapsburg Dynasty was one of the chief dynasties of Europe from the 15th to the 20th century. The Habsburgs ruled Austria from 1282 until 1918. The dynasty also controlled Hungary and Bohemia (current day Czechia). As rulers of Spain and the Spanish empire for almost two centuries, their rule extended into Sicily, Sardinia, as well as parts of modern-day Italy and the Netherland.
On October 8th, the History Discussion Group will examine the Hapsburgs, including a brief overview of their history, with an emphasis on the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph who ruled from 1848-1916, and the factors leading to the downfall of the empire.
