Revision as of 10:55, 7 November 2014
As per tradition the kingdoms of Austria and Bohemia are held in personal union. Bohemia's crown dates (officially) from 1212. Austria's a more recent 1898.
Austria
Austria was originally a march (margraviate) within Bavaria.
Leopold I | (976-994) | |
Henry I | (994-1018 | |
Adalbert | (1018-1055) | |
Ernest | (1055-1075) | |
Leopold II | (1075-1095) | |
Leopold III | (1095-1136) | |
Leopold IV | (1137-1141) | |
Henry II | (1141-1156) |
The 1156 Prviliegium Minus elevates the March to a Duchy, making it independent of Bavaria.
Henry II | (1156-1177) | |
Leopold V | (1177-1194) | |
Frederick I | (1195-1198) | |
Leopold VI | (1198-1230) | |
Frederick II | (1230-1246) |
After Frederick's death Austria is disputed between various claimants, the longest lasting being Ottokar II of Bohemia (1251-1278). He is eventually defeated by Emperor Rudolph I who would divide his lands between his sons.
Albert's three sons divide the duchy (the title of Archduke was a 1359 fabrication which was only confirmed in 1513 when Austria was reunited). The death of his cousins without heirs allows Sigismund, duke of Inner Austria, to reunite the lands over the course of his rule.
Sigismund | (1513-1524) | |
Maximilian I | (1524-1543) | |
Maximilian II | (1543-1569) | |
Albert IV | (1569-1580) | |
Frederick III Emperor Frederick VI |
(1580-1606) | |
Charles I Emperor Charles VI |
(1606-1631) | |
Rudolph II Emperor Rudolph II |
(1631-1649) | |
Rudolph III Emperor Rudolph III |
(1649-1687) | |
Charles II | (1687-1702) | |

(1702-1748) | |
Maximilian III | (1748-1750) | |
Frederick III | (1750-1769) | |
Leopold III | (1769-1800) | |
Maximilian IV | (1800-1816) | |
Charles III | (1816-1842) | |
George Emperor George |
(1842-1864) | |
Leopold IV | (1864-1896) | |
Charles IV | (1896-1898) |
After much bartering in the Imperial Diet the title of King of Austria is finally bestowed on the Archdukes in 1898, though this came with the provision, occasionally contested, that they should not pursue an additional electorate for Austria.
Charles I | (1898-1905) | |
Leopold I | (1905-1908) | |
Leopold II | (1908-1920) | |
Charles II Emperor Charles VIII |
(1920-1955) | |
Leopold III | (1955-1987) | |
Leopold IV | (1987-2009) | |
Leopold V | (2009-) |
Bohemia
The Kings of Bohemia are usually dated from 1212 when the title was confirmed by the Sicilian Bull, though an illustrious line of Dukes stretches back to the early 9th century. Previous dukes did claim the title of king however it was not a hereditary title.
Ottokar I | (1198-1230) | |
Wenceslaus I | (1230-1253) | |
Ottokar II | (1253-1278) | |
Wenceslaus II | (1278-1305) | |
Wenceslaus III | (1305-1306) |
Henry I | (1306, 1307-1310) |
Rudolph I | (1306-1307) |
John of Luxembourg marries Elizabeth, the last heir of Wenceslaus II.

The death of Henry of Prague before he can reach his majority gives the Bohemian magnates, an opportunity to break with Luxembourg rule. Maximilian II of Austria is elected.

Frederick I Emperor Frederick VI |
(1580-1606) | |

(1606-1618) |
During the Bohemian Revolt which began the Fifty Years War the Protestant Bohemian nobles rejected the Austrian archduke and with Schmalkaldic support elected William-George, Duke of Oldenburg King of Bohemia. His rule lasted only until the Catholic Empire could marshal its forces and reconquer Bohemia.

The Treaty of Copenhagen returns Bohemia to Luxembourg rule, a sop to offset their loss of Brandenburg and a snub to Austria.

While John IV is on his apparent deathbed (he recovers) the Prague Diet decides they will not accept the reactionary and widely despised Prince Charles of Utrecht as his successor. The nobles reach out to Austria. Archduke (and Emperor) Rudolph III is confirmed as king after the brief and indecisive War of Bohemian Succession.
