 An Emperor Blessed by Christopher Westley
To many, including myself, Karl of Austria was a man of holy virtue who happened to be one of the last symbols of the dying European order that existed before the ascendancy of mass democracy.
First, Karl was a man of enormous personal piety and courage who stood athwart the rise of the nation-states and their perpetual wars for perpetual peace – wars which we can date with the opening skirmishes of the First World War up to this week’s bombing of Samarra in Iraq.
It is hard not to wonder whether another motive for the advancement of Karl’s cause at the present time is for the Catholic Church in Austria, which is currently mired in scandal and, after eight decades of dependence on the Austrian government, with church membership rolls at record low levels.

 Emperor Franz Josef   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Franz Josef was the eldest son of Archduke Franz Karl (Francis Charles), who was brother and heir of Austrian Emperor Ferdinand I. Because his father renounced his right to the throne, Franz Josef became emperor when Ferdinand abdicated near the end of the revolution of 1848.
In 1889 his only son and heir to the throne, Archduke Rudolf, committed suicide; Franz Josef's second younger brother, Karl Ludwig, had died in 1896 from illness due to bad water he drank while on a holy lands pilgrimage; in 1898 Elizabeth was assassinated by an Italian anarchist.
Karl Ludwig's oldest son, Franz Ferdinand replaced Rudolf as heir to the throne.

Archduke Franz Ferdinand Karl Ludwig Joseph Maria von Habsburg-Lothringen was born at Graz on 18 July 1863, son of Karl Ludwig, Kaiser Franz Josef's second brother.
While the ascension of his son, Archduke Maximilian, to the throne of Austria was prevented, Franz Ferdinand's heir was not prevented from ascending the throne of Hungary, whose royal laws did not hinge on Habsburg family law.
After the Archduke was assassinated, the Serbs and other Entente sources claimed that the deed was perpetrated by either the Kaiser's secret police in retaliation for his morganatic marriage or by the Magyars themselves, who feared the Archdule's plans for their Kingdom.

 Crown Prince Rudolf of Austria
Crown Prince Rudolf of Austria (21 August 1858 - 30 January 1889) was the son and heir of Emperor Franz Josef of Austria and Elisabeth of Austria.
His death, apparently through suicide, along with that of his mistress, Baroness Marie Vetsera[?] at Mayerling hunting lodge in 1889 made international headlines, fueled international conspiracy rumours and ultimately may have sealed the longterm fate of the Habsburg monarchy.
Instead however the throne ultimately went to Franz-Josef's grand-nephew, Karl, who in 1916 became the last Austrian emperor as Emperor Karl, and who, though he tried, was unable to stop the war and to save the Habsburg monarchy from final collapse.

Austria and its associated crown lands were ruled by Habsburgs from that date until 1918, an incredible dynastic reign of 640 years by a single family.
The dominions of the House of Austria, as the Habsburg dynasty was known, increased over the centuries to become a global empire on which the sun literally never set.
A convinced pacifist, Karl made strenuous efforts to halt the slaughter on the battlefronts, but his advances were rejected by all the other combatants and he was finally powerless to stop the disintegration of the Habsburg Monarchy into a number of independent states in November 1918.

Nonetheless, when Franz Ferdinand was assassinated in June 1914 by a Bosnian Serb nationalist, the emperor followed the advice of his foreign minister, Leopold Berchtold, and went ahead with a hard-line approach to Serbia that soon led to the outbreak of a general European war.
Karl’s liberalism posed a threat to the Hungarian prime minister, Istvan Tisza, whom he pressured to resign in May 1917.
