Bourburg

>>1156783
Then the Habsbon, of course.
>>
>>1156738

is this a troll question?

Habsburg dynasty controlled big portions of europe and americas. Since Bourbon it's been only a downturn
>>
>>1156799
habsburg made the empire end up in a downturn with their pointless wars, bourbons made the empire recover for a while
>>
Habsburgs occupied throne of HRE from 1438 until 1740 and produced kings and emperors for Bohemia, England, France, Germany, Hungary, Russia, Croatia, 2nd Mexican Empire, Ireland, Portugal, Spain.

Borbons have done nothing to improve europe and Spain has only gotten worse.

But the Bourbons are just a branch of the captain dynasty.

Bourbons literally lost all the colonies.
>>
>>1156950
they were simply unfortunate enough to be in power when Napoleon happened

>>1156738
Everything is better than Habsburg.

Bourbons, they're still in power to this day.
But I gotta say they fucked up with their policy in Germany, always siding with the prots.

Habsburg went extinct in the male line a long time ago.

I have to say, Otto was one of the most fervent believers in an united Europe and a great man.

King of Spain is a Bourbon. Grand Duke of Luxembourg is technically;y a Bourbon but male preference for house name ended in the modern era.

Habsburgs were given a ton of territory and opportunity and squandered it.

Bourbon were given opportunity and set-up branch houses like a boss dynasty should.
