Pretenders to the Throne

[J. J.]

Next up will be the Hapsburgs - in particular the crown of Austria.

The Hapsburgs are probably the most interesting and entertaining of all royal dynasties. Wherever they crop up outside of their own history they are usually doing something a 'bit mad' or trying to marry off someone reluctantly.

Easy now.

Are both your parents Habsburgs?

Just wondering if the grand old tradition of keeping it in the family is still running. Don't suppose you have mandibular prognathism?

No, just my fathers side. However, through my family research we did have first cousins that married in Austria.  No, I don't have the Hapsburg jaw, well, not as pronounced as in the pictures I've seen. I'd put a picture up but I have a full beard and I'm not shaving it. However, I'll post a picture of my great uncle Eduard Wallnöfer, he was fairly prominent in Austrian politics. Tell me what you think.



My jaw is similar to his.

Who's the pretender to the Ducal throne of Bretagne?

Who's the pretender to the Ducal throne of Bretagne?

Louis XX.  Juan Carlos will eventually inherit the claim.
