Olga, Tatiana, Maria and Anastasia had glittering futures ahead of them with the prospects of marrying the grandest royals in Europe and living their days in the lap of luxury.

Queen Guinevere, Morgan le Fey and Nimue, the mystical lady of the lake have been cast as heroins, virtuous women and wicked femme fatals by the many people who have retold the legend of King Arthur over 1500 years. I'll sketch the highlights of the story, galloping past the oft retold battles and quests of the knights of the round table and focusing on the many parts women had to play. Then take a look at the way the legend morphed through the passage of time and some of the reverberation the inhabitants of the Camelot have had on real history.

If you think the kids in your family are a lot to handle, imagine having over a dozen of them! That was the reality for the royal women in today’s video. The primary expectation of Queens and other well born women of the past was to have as many children as possible to secure their husband’s dynasty and bare a few spares to be used in advantageous political marriages. Their fertility was their life. They were married early and caught on a treadmill of pregnancy, birth, handing their babies over to be raised by wet-nurses and tutors, and hoping back into bed to conceive again as soon as possible. Surely they looked forward to the relief of menopause. Here are 9 Queens and Empresses who bore an extraordinary number of children: Mumtaz Mahal, Mughal Empress Consort - 14 Children Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, Queen Consort of Great Britain & Ireland - 15 Children Anna Jagellonica, Queen Consort of Germany, Bohemia & Hungary - 15 Children Eleanor of Castile, Queen Consort of England - 16 Children Keran, Queen Consort of Armenia - 16 Children Maria Theresa, Holy Roman Empress - 16 Children Maria Carolina of Austria, Queen Consort of Naples and Sicily - 17 Children Anne, Queen of Great Britain - 18 Children Darejan Dadiani, Queen Consort of Georgia - 23 Children Maria Theresa's Daughters: https://youtu.be/vlLI1bp6BeA https://youtu.be/mtvFd_ciI5Y Maria Theresa's Sons: https://youtu.be/S1lp9qMACfo Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

What 16th century megalomaniac monarch magnified the power of his nation, ordered the violent executions of thousands of his own people, became obsessed with fathering male heirs and went through at least 6 wives, several of whom were murdered? Why Ivan the Terrible, Tsar of Russia of course! In fact he outdid Henry VIII of England in many terrible ways, including having not 6 wives but as many as 8. The exact number is still debated by historians. But 6 or 8, they would all come to regret their wedding vows. Let’s meet the women who were unfortunate enough to call one of the most evil men in history their husband. Anastasia Romanovna Maria Temryukovna Marfa Sobakina Anna Koltovskaya Anna Vasilchikova Vasilisa Melentyeva Maria Dolgorukaya Maria Nagaya

It was born in response to religious misogyny and continued in that vein through the rise of theater. But once women were allowed on stage, drag lived on because it also serves many other important purposes; including self expression and subverting traditional gender norms. Drag has been at the heart or on the fringes of every major development in entertainment, and it has had an outsizes influence on fashion, language and culture.

Olga was the wive of Igor, the Grand Prince of the Kievan Rus’, a federation of people whose capital was the city of Kyiv, now the capital of modern day Ukraine. When her husband was brutally murdered by a subsidiary tribe, Olga went on a legendary campaign of cunning and ruthless revenge. Once in control of her husband’s kingdom, she was an efficient and effective leader. She converted to Christianity in order to get out of an unwanted marriage proposal. She is credited with introducing Christianity to the Rus people. After her death, Olga was canonized as a saint and is regarded as “Equal to the Apostles” within the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. Jadwiga, Female King of Poland was crowned at the age of 10. She grew wise beyond her years and was forced to make a difficult decision about who to marry – a young man she liked or an old man who would Christianize his country for her. Though she reigned for only 15 years she did a great deal of good and is considered one of the greatest monarchs in Polish history. Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

Happy Pride! 🏳️🌈 Through most of history homosexuality and gender non-conformity were met with misunderstanding and intolerance. And while men in power had some modicum of freedom to pursue their own desires, women’s sexuality and identity was much more tightly controlled. Lesbian relationships were conducted in secret or explained as “intense friendships”. And women who didn’t conform to traditional gender politics were puzzled over and vilified. Here are the stories of 8 royal and noble women from history whose sexuality and/or identity went against the grain: Crown Princess Sun-bin Bong of Joseon Duchess Margaret of Parma Queen Christina of Sweden Duchess Hortense Mancini Queen Anne of Great Britain Princess Isabella of Bourbon-Parma Duchess Luisa Isabel Álvarez de Toledo Princess Abigail Kawānanakoa of Hawaii

The royal and imperial courts of Asia had complex systems of female hierarchy. The ruler’s wives and female relatives were at the top, and a great many other ladies were there to serve them. Similar to the ladies in waiting of European royal courts, these women cared for the rooms and wardrobes of higher ranking women, assist them in hygiene and grooming; and entertain them, keep them company, act as their secretaries and pass on all the latest gossip, crucial to palace intrigue. In Islamic empires, these women were collectively known as the harem. Anglo-phonic historians also use the term Harem or Palace Women to refer to the ladies of the Imperial courts of East Asia. In Christian Europe, Kings were supposed to be faithful to their Queens, but they still got up to plenty of hanky-panky with the court ladies. But in Asia, where polygamy was common practice, all court ladies were available to the monarch for sexual services, and if they took the Emperor’s fancy, even the lowest born woman could be promoted to concubine, consort or even Empress. Let’s take a look at the evolution, duties, ranks and lives of the Harem and Palace women of the imperial courts of China, Japan and the Ottoman Empire.

We’re familiar with the Christmas carol “The 12 days of Christmas” but in the middle ages, this extended holiday Christmas looked a bit different. There were plenty of lords-a-leaping and ladies dancing but the only partridge was trussed up on the King’s table next to the swans-a-swimming in gravy. And the gold rings were baked in the Christmas pudding! Medieval people dropped their plows, wrapped their spinning wheels in holly and ivy and took 12 days off, from Christmas day to Epiphany on January 6th. As the yule log crackled in the fire they feasted, played games and sports, attended mass, enjoyed subversive revelry and imbibed gallons of wassail. It all culminated into the most raucous party of the year on twelfth night! So Deck your halls, mull some wine, and cut a slice of mince pie as we join in the celebrations of the 12 days of Medieval Christmas...
Advent, December 24th - Christmas Eve
December 25th - Christmas Day - 1st day of Christmas
December 26th - The Feast of St Stephen - 2nd day of Christmas
December 27th - The Feast of St John - 3rd day of Christmas
December 28th - Childermas - 4th day of Christmas
December 29th - Feast of St. Thomas Becket - 5th day of Christmas
December 30th - 6th
December 31st - New Year’s Eve - 7th day
January 1st - New Year’s Day - 8th day
January 2nd - 9th day
January 3rd - 10th day
January 4th - 11th day
January 5th - Twelfth Night - 12th day
January 6th - Epiphany
My historically accurate 12 Days of Christmas Song:
On the 12th day of medieval Christmas my true love gave to me:
Twelve massive parties
Eleven herbs and spices
Ten archery arrows
Nine saints bones
Eight royal presents
Seven swans-a-roasted
Six carole singers
Five bowls of wassail
Four bishop boys
Three mince pies
Two alms for the poor
and a boars head on a bed of holly!

Queen Elizabeth II’s 4 children have given her 8 grandchildren. While her children were the first generation of royals to have their lives laid bare for public scrutiny, her grandchildren grew up in the limelight and have a better handle on it. The Queen’s children and their scandals nearly brought about the downfall of the monarchy. But the next generation has brought a resurgence in its popularity as young royals aim to position themselves as more genuine and down to earth, despite having a monarch for a grandmummy. Lets take a look at the mostly charmed lives of the 8 royal grandchildren of Queen Elizabeth II with updates on what they've been up to in the last few years:
Prince William, Duke of Cambridge
Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex
Peter Phillips
Zara Phillips Tindall
Princess Beatrice
Princess Eugenie
Lady Louise Windsor
James, Viscount Severn

Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom is mother to four children: Charles, Prince of Wales Anne, Princess Royal Prince Andrew, Duke of York Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex The famously stoic monarch is unsurprisingly not a warm and affectionate mother. As the children grew up so did the media. Tabloids and television demanded more insight into the lives of the royal family than ever before. The mystical reverence for monarchy was lost and the Queen’s children became real-life soap stars as the press hungrily followed their every triumph and tragedy. The privileged princes and princess were expected to be charming yet accessible and to exemplify a perfect family life. Standards that, through divorce and scandal proved impossible to live up to. Let’s take a look at the lives of Queen Elizabeth’s four children with updates on what they've been up to in the last few years.

Oliver Cromwell – He killed King and his corpse paid the price!

The Tudor era is all about the women. Once you get past Henry VIII and his six wives, three successive Queens got a chance to warm the throne of England.

In 4 episodes we’ll look at the lives of the 4 Queens of Tudor Britain, Jane Grey, Mary I, Elizabeth I and Mary Queen of Scots. And their brief, bloody, brilliant and bumbling reigns.

Today about 85% of all serial killers are male. On the rare occasions when a woman commits murder, it is far more shocking to society. But history reveals a handful of femme fatals who took the lives of others to gain power or even for their own sadistic pleasure. Royal and noble women were particularly well positioned to indulge their evil impulses. Wealth and power gave them nearly limitless freedom to prey on peasants, who in turn had little means of seeking justice. Today we’ll investigate the cases of 5 female aristocratic serial murderers from history:
Anula, Queen of Anuradhapura, ? – 44 BCE
Elizabeth Báthory, Hungarian Countess 1560 – 1614
Catalina de los Ríos y Lisperguer, “La Quintrala”, Spanish & Chilean Noblewoman 1604 – 1665
Marie-Madeleine d’Aubray, Marquise de Brinvilliers 1630 – 1676
Darya Nikolayevna Saltykova, 1755–1762

Through most of history, royals and nobles held a place high above the peasant class. Their word was law and they could often get away with murder, literally. So much unchecked power sometimes went to a rulers head, morphing their darker urges into unspeakable acts of violence and cruelty. The lives of peasants were given very little value, and there were few means to investigate or seek justice against murderous aristocrats. High-born psychopaths were nearly unstoppable in their bloodlust and often racked up victim counts in the hundreds. Let’s investigate the cases of 4 royal and noble serial killers from history, and look at the theories that one of the most famous slashers of all time, Jack the Ripper was really a member of the British Royal family.
Liu Pengli, Prince of Jidong, 144–116 BC
Dhu Shanatir, Himyarite King, 5th century CE
Gilles de Rais, Baron de Retz 1405 – 1440
Sado, Crown Prince of Joseon, 1757–1762
Prince Albert Victor if the United Kingdom 1864–1892

Throughout history one thing has had more impact on women’s lives than almost anything else - giving birth to children. In this episode we will explore various aspects of this paramount and awe-inspiring process and how it has changed across cultures and through time. From how we think about conception and fertility to some rather kooky pregnancy tests; from the day to day realities of pregnancy and how pregnant women were seen by their communities to the changing medical practices surrounding that most amazing dangerous moment in women’s lives, childbirth.

What makes a man a King? Aside from genetic luck and a glittering crown, it’s a castle. In this three part series, we’ll explore 15 of the most historically important Royal Castles & Palaces of England. In the last episode we explored the medieval castles built by William the Conqueror in the 11th century to impose his might upon the land. For his warrior descendants, the Normand and the Plantagenet, having a home that could withstand a trebuchet was paramount. But by the 15th and 16th centuries, war had moved from the castle to the battlefield and the new Tudor monarchs could prioritize grandiose spaces and luxurious living. It was time to move out of the dank defensive castles and in to a new breed of lavish, sprawling palaces.
Richmond Palace 1383–1649
Greenwich Palace (Palace of Placentia) 1500–1660
Hampton Court Palace 1529-1760
Palace of Whitehall 1530–1698

In this three part series, we’ll explore 15 of the most historically important Royal Castles & Palaces of England. Let’s begin with the medieval castles, built to be tough and to impose the King’s might upon his subjects. The comfort and luxury were an afterthought to staying alive during siege warfare. These oldest royal residences in England have nearly a millennial of history under their belts. They have been transformed many times over the years and have served a number of colorful purposes, from seat of democratic government to scene of tyrannical torture and execution. From fabricated namesake of the modern royal family to Queen Elizabeth’s favorite home to this day.

Royals throughout history are notorious for inbreeding. But the European royal family by far infamously incestuous were the Habsburgs (Hapsburgs). The royal house ruled Spain from 1506 to 1700 and held the Holy Roman Empire from 1452 until 1806. These two branches of the family vollied brides back and forth like ping pong balls. Cousins married cousins and uncles married nieces. All in the name of keeping wealth and power in the family and keeping their blood blue. They were oblivious to the havoc all this intermarrying was playing on their genetics. The tragic results were numerous family members with mental illness, intellectual disability, vulnerability to diseases, and a famously unusual continence which came to be known as the Hapsburg Jaw. Just how inbred where the Habsburgs? Short answer, very. Long answer, well, let's get into it! Frederick III, the Peaceful Maximilian I Charles V Ferdinand I Maximilian II Rudolph II Matthias Ferdinand II Ferdinand II Leopold I Joseph I Charles VI Maria Theresa & Francis I Joseph II Leopold II Francis II Ferdinand I Franz Joseph I Charles I Karl von Habsburg

The royal house ruled Spain from 1506 to 1700 and held the Holy Roman Empire from 1452 until 1806. These two branches of the family vollied brides back and forth like ping pong balls. Cousins married cousins and uncles married nieces. All in the name of keeping wealth and power in the family and keeping their blood blue. They were oblivious to the havoc all this intermarrying was playing on their genetics. The tragic results were numerous family members with mental illness, intellectual disability, vulnerability to diseases, and a famously unusual continence which came to be known as the Hapsburg Jaw. Just how inbred where the Habsburgs? Short answer, very. Long answer, well, lets get into it! Ferdinand & Isabella Juana I (Joanna I) the Mad & Philip the Handsome Carlos I (Charles I) Felipe II (Philip II ) Felipe III (Philip III) Felipe IV (Philip IV) Carlos II (Charles II)
