Description

What if the most powerful female leader of the 16th century was not the one you've heard of, but someone who has long been overlooked in history?

Margaret of Austria: The Hidden Force Behind Europe's Power Struggles uncovers the remarkable story of a woman whose diplomatic prowess and political resilience shaped the very foundation of the Habsburg empire and influenced the course of European history.

Inside this book, you will discover how Margaret-daughter of Mary of Burgundy and Maximilian I, regent of the Low Countries, and aunt to the mighty Charles V-navigated the complex political landscape of Renaissance Europe. From her strategic role in the Treaty of Cambrai to her deft handling of religious divisions during the rise of Protestantism, Margaret's leadership left a lasting mark on the continent's political future.
