My British Empire

Of course, in Charles V's vision, although the Habsburg family is divided into two, his younger brother and son will definitely unite for the glory of the Habsburg family and deter the whole of Europe.

That's right.

Before the death of Charles V, his younger brother Ferdinand and his son Philip II would scruple his influence and his prestige, and united tightly to advance and retreat together.

However, with his death, the Habsburg dynasty split immediately.

And, it will surprise him even more.

After his death, the Habsburg family was officially divided into two, the Spanish Habsburg family and the Austrian Habsburg family side by side.

Moreover, the two also announced that the thrones of Austria and the Holy Roman Empire would be inherited by the descendants of Ferdinand, and the throne of Spain would be inherited by the descendants of Philip, and that the two sides no longer had the right to inherit the other party's throne.

This is equivalent to saying that the two families have no connection other than having the same name.

The Habsburg dynasty, which made the whole of Western Europe crawl under its feet, can no longer be reproduced.

Father, are you in good health? Philip II stopped the guards from announcing, and he and Mary came to the room softly and slowly. At this time, His Majesty Charles V was bathing in the sun, watching Starting with a thick Bible in his hand, he muttered words.

After a while, Philip II bent down and greeted him softly.

Oh! It's Philip! Why don't you have time to see me? Sit down! Charles V opened his narrowed eyes, and said softly with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Mary, sit down too!

By the way, what's going on with your uncle? The three sat together, and Charles V asked aloud, regardless of reading the Bible.

Uncle's place is going well! Philip II sneered, How can it not go well?

After you announced the transfer of the title of emperor to him, the princes of Germany immediately voted happily. Uncle Ferdinand has officially become the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. There was no accident in the process!

Charles V listened, he clearly felt his son's reluctance.

Also, although becoming an emperor does not increase the power much, how can the title of king be compared with that of emperor? Obviously a head shorter.

Ah! The fact is exactly as I expected, my younger brother has already won the support of the German princes! Charles V glanced at his son's unwilling face and sighed.

So what if you are unwilling? If I forcibly pass on the title of emperor to you, the group of princes will definitely vote against it. In the end, the Habsburg family's influence in the German region will be reduced to a low point!

Speaking of this, Charles V couldn't help showing resentment in his eyes. In the war between Catholicism and Protestantism, not only did he lose miserably, but he was almost captured, ruining his reputation.

Remember, you have to fight side by side with your uncle, so that the continent of Europa, which is constantly at war, will always lie at the feet of the Habsburg family!

Philip II listened to the latter words perfunctorily, dismissing the so-called unity, but it was difficult to say it in front of his father.

However, Charles V did not notice his son's face, and he still talked about the greatness and unity of the Habsburg family.

After that, Philip II and Mary chatted with Charles V for a while, and after talking about Catholicism, a common topic among the three, they left.

Along the way, Philip II was still aggrieved that he could not get the title of emperor.

Damn Ferdinand, he thought I didn't know that in the damned Augsburg religious peace treaty, he was leaning towards the group of heretics. Father was deceived, otherwise he would not have signed the peace treaty!

Sitting in the carriage, Philip II's originally handsome face now looked ferocious and terrifying. Mary, who was sitting on the side, looked at her husband and listened carefully to his narration without saying a word.

Although it has been done hundreds of times.

For the sake of the title of emperor and Austria, he actually abandoned his own beliefs, had a drink with those heretics, and stood together to weaken the interests of Spain. He is really a shameless person!

When Philip II said that his lips were a little dry, Mary held a glass of water at the right time and said softly:

Okay, Philip, what's so great about a title of emperor, as long as you defeat the group of heretics in the Mediterranean, His Majesty the Pope will definitely not refuse you a title of emperor!

Mary's words made Philip II feel enlightened. When he came to his senses, he quickly grabbed Mary's right hand and said excitedly:

Thank you, my Mary, for reminding me!

Then, he said in a passionate and domineering tone:

I will definitely defeat those barbaric pagans, and let the glory of our Lord shine on the Mediterranean Sea, Constantinople, and the holy city!

Although Philip II was excited at the moment and made his wish too unrealistic, Mary still looked at her young husband with eyes full of admiration, and she was fascinated by it.

As for why Philip II didn't want to regain the title of emperor, it was really Ferdinand I, whose title of emperor was too strong.

Since 1276, the imperial crown has passed almost constantly between the King of Bohemia (mainly of the Luxembourg family) and the Austrian Grand Duke (of the Habsburg family).

The Hungarian king of the Habsburg family, his uncle Ferdinand I, received the imperial crown from the emperor and Archduke Charles V of Austria.

He not only served as the Archduke of Austria and the Austrian Habsburg family of the King of Bohemia, but also served as the King of Bohemia, as well as the branch Habsburg-Lorraine family.

The two choices are combined into one, how can we compete for the emperor again.

Therefore, he can only hope to defeat the Ottoman Empire and get the canonization of the Pope.

United Kingdom of Great Britain, capital London, Hampton Palace.

At this time, the young His Majesty the King was teaching his three one-year-old sons and daughters to play. The three small figures were running around on the grass with their buttocks twisted and smiling, teasing the dog from time to time, stepping on flowers, nose Li Dumei is out of bubbles.

However, he is still concerned about the situation in the European continent, especially the movement of the overlord Spain.

Your Majesty, Dark Blade has received news from Frankfurt that Ferdinand Habsburg has been officially recognized by the Seven Electors as the new Holy Roman Emperor!

Upon receiving this news, Edward suddenly had a vague impression that this is the main branch of the Habsburg family!

The Holy Roman Empire is neither holy, nor is it Rome, nor is it an empire! Edward sneered softly in front of Guy, the leader of the Dark Blade.

At the same time, Henry II of France started smashing things again, and the title of emperor was also his dream.
