The brother who stayed in the wings while one sibling ruled Austria-Hungary and another died an emperor in Mexico — but his bloodline produced the man whose murder lit the fuse of World War I.
Biography
About
Karl Ludwig was born 30 July 1833, third son in a dynasty where older brothers took the thrones. Franz Joseph became Emperor of Austria; Maximilian sailed off to die as Emperor of Mexico. Karl Ludwig remained in Vienna, a steady presence in the imperial household. In 1863 his son Franz Ferdinand was born — the nephew-heir whose assassination in Sarajevo in 1914 would detonate the Great War. Karl Ludwig died 19 May 1896, eighteen years before that shot. His grandson Charles would be the last man to wear the Austrian crown.
