At the end of the 17th century, from a great power, which was Spain a century ago, there were only memories. When he was the last king of the Habsburg dynasty, Charles II, who was called Enchanted or Borsende, ascended the throne in 1665, the country steadily rolled into bankruptcy. She needs a strong ruler who can gain the confidence of her citizens and promote stability through the production of healthy heirs. But on the throne sat a four-year-old child, a direct descendant of Juan Madness, with signs of physical and mental decline. In this age, he was still breastfeeding, he was continuously ill And difficulty walking due to weak joints. Something to read and write the king learned only by the age of nine. Karl also spoke awkwardly and mentally, and of course, did not shine. For the first ten years of his reign, he listened to everything to the Queen Mother, a woman who was close and ungodly. She decided to marry her son as soon as possible. After some hesitation, the selection fell on Maria Louise, the daughter of the Duke of Orleans and his niece Louis XIV of France and Charles II of England. She was considered the most beautiful princess of Europe and therefore, the "breed improvement" can be very ugly groom.
Perhaps, the marriage of Maria Louise can be considered a real tragedy. The 17-year-old beauty can make the most privileged husband happy. However, in 1679 was given to slim - lean, weak, always sick, and even with the bulldog jaw, a trait of the Spanish Habsburgs, which did not even allow them to chew food properly.
As a lover, Karl, of course, was not good, and worse - he, apparently, was helpless. However, much remains unclear. First, Karl's sexual concern was not in doubt. In fact, one of the reasons that the Queen made her mother hurry with her son's marriage was his passion for masturbation, considered at that time harmful to health. Second, Carl, of course, loved his wife, who said after the wedding night to the French ambassador that "in general" lost her virginity. But what exactly does the bride mean? Did Karl do his marital duties so that his wife could imagine? Probably not. Apparently, the young king suffered from a sharp form of premature ejaculation - he simply did not have time to bring the seeds to the place provided by nature.
The long absence of the couple crowned the Spanish court was seriously crowned. Infertility, as usual, is considered a husband. From Maria Louise, there was one thing required: the birth of offspring. If the queen is not given an heir, it must be changed. Uncle Maria Louise, Louis XIV Louis, did not like this transformation. The young diplomat Ripenac sent to the Spanish court with a sensitive task - to learn the details of the sexual life of his nephew. Rebnac conducted an investigation with incredible accuracy - so he pulled a pair of Carl's night wearers and gave them to the doctors to look for seed traces. The diplomat asked with addiction Maria Luisa, who was embarrassed to admit that her sexual relations with her husband did not inspire hopes of pregnancy. As Rebinac understands, the couple The royalists work in safe sex, mutual masturbation, that the continuation of the family is useless. Speech after all goes for female ejaculatory ejaculation, and it is immoral and from the point of view of the church. Repinak, and his introduction and the entire Spanish court came to a ridiculous conclusion: the king is enchanting. People were questioned from the Queen's footnote under torture, but the source of the insidious magic was not found.
After ten years of fruitful and possibly painful marriage in 1689, Maria Luiz died. She was deprived of the joys of motherhood, afflicted herself with evil, bowed to sweets, and became fat heavily. The Spaniards, who look at it, exchange views of understanding: Who can raise this informal figure?
10 days after the Queen's death began preparations for a new wedding. At this time, his mother chose Carla's wife, 23-year-old Mary Ann Palatinate - in Neuburg - not beautiful, but a girl of good family, sister of the Austrian empress. Shortly after marriage in 1690, rumors spread about the pregnancy of the new queen. It turns out to be false. Husband "Warrior" deal with his duties no better than before.
The deficit put an end to the Spanish Habsburg dynasty. With the death of Charles in 1700 the Spanish Caliphate War began 1701-1714 years (very Spain and its property - the Netherlands and the Duchy of Milan, the Kingdom of Naples, Sardinia, Sicily and colonies in Latin America), which participated France, Prussia, England, Italy and Austria. Louis XIV wants to put on the throne vacant his grandson Philip Anju of the Bourbon dynasty. The alliance opposed an alliance led by Great Britain and Austria. Afraid of excessive promotion France, has put forward its own candidate - the Austrian Duke Karl von Habsburgs, the son of the emperor.
