Born 21 April 1673 in Brunswick-Lüneburg, Wilhelmine Amalie entered the labyrinth of Habsburg power through her wedding to Joseph I, Holy Roman Emperor. The marriage made her Archduchess consort of Austria and draped her in the cascading titles that came with being empress: Queen of the Germans, Hungary, Bohemia. She occupied the ceremonial center of an empire while Joseph held the throne, her position defined entirely by proximity to power. When he died, the titles went with him. She lived another three decades in that shadow, dying 10 April 1742.
