Sorry but all I can think of with this prompt is how disgustingly inbred all these people were because of how much was tied up in the marriages. 🫣

No surprise a Habsburg takes Numba 1 Most Inbred All these people are all so ducked up. It makes Real Housewives drama look pathetic, like what some lady called the other lady a bitch? Big whoop I'm sitting with the history prof I know and I showed him all of this. He went on a big rant to me about Charles V waxing poetic about "The empire on which the sun never sets" I'm like huh ok and what does one do in that moment but go to Wikipedia. Immediately read what essentially boils down to "Charles was born in a bathroom because his mom went into labor but she had a party on the calendar and she was like 'oh, that's a can't miss' and so the kid was born over the toilet"
