Charles II Of Spain - The BEWITCHED


Charles II Of Spain - The BEWITCHED: Charles II was the last king of the Spanish branch of the Habsburgs and the deformed fruit of the inbreeding that was rampant among the members of a family that had shaped European relations for centuries. In his time, Charles II's aberrations were attributed to the work of the devil, hence his nickname El Hechizado (the bewitched).

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
