## Bio

Born the seventeenth child of a dispossessed duke in 1892, Zita of Bourbon-Parma married Archduke Charles of Austria in 1911. Three years later the assassination of Franz Ferdinand made her husband heir to the Habsburg throne; by 1916 the elderly Emperor Franz Joseph was dead and Charles ruled Austria-Hungary with Zita as empress and queen. The empire lasted two more years. In 1918 the Habsburgs were deposed, their realm carved into Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and pieces annexed by neighbors. Charles and Zita went to Switzerland, tried twice to reclaim Hungary, failed, and were exiled by the Allies to Madeira. Charles died there in 1922. Zita raised their children, never remarried, and with her son Otto became the living axis of a scattered dynasty. She was declared Servant of God by Pope Benedict XVI and died in 1989.
