The Habsburgs still have their followers
I was looking for images of Archduke Otto's funeral, and found this site. I find it fascinating that even in twenty-first century Europe the idea of divinely ordained monarchy dies hard.
You'll see that one of Otto's titles was Duke of Oświęcim. That place would be made forever infamous by Otto's enemies, the Nazis, who called it by the German form of its name: Auschwitz.
Oh, and don't miss the bits about Bonnie Prince Charlie and his brother, "King Henry IX".
