	Elisabeth of Bavaria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Elisabeth Amalie Eugenie, Duchess in Bavaria and Princess of Bavaria (December 24, 1837 – September 10, 1898), of the House of Wittelsbach, was the Empress consort of Austria and Queen consort of Hungary due to her marriage to Emperor Franz Joseph.
		Elisabeth was denied any major influence on her own children's upbringing, however — they were raised by her mother-in-law Sophie, and soon after Rudolf's birth the marriage started to deteriorate, undone by Elisabeth's increasingly erratic behavior (her family, the Wittelsbachs, had a history of mental instability).
		In 1889, Elisabeth's life was shattered by the death of her only son: 31 year-old Crown Prince Rudolf and his young lover Baroness Mary Vetsera were found dead, apparently by suicide.

	Elisabeth of Bavaria : Elisabeth of Austria
		Elisabeth Amalie Eugenie, Duchess in Bavaria (House of Wittelsbach), Empress-Consort of Austria and Queen-Consort of Hungary, was born in Munich, Germany on 24 December 1837 and died in Geneva, Switzerland on 10 September 1898.
		In 1889, Elisabeth's life was shattered by the death of her only son: 31 year-old Crown Prince Rudolf had obviously first shot his young lover, Maria Vetsera[?], and then himself in a hunting lodge in Mayerling, Lower Austria.
		While Elisabeth's role in, and influence on, Austro-Hungarian politics should not be overestimated (she is only marginally mentioned in scholarly books on Austrian history), Elisabeth, particularly during the second half of the 20th century, has undoubtedly become an icon now often compared to Princess Diana.
