Liechtenstein! Oh, Liechtenstein! What will I say about you, you gem of a micro country! The country Liechtenstein was named after a family who themselves were named after a castle they lived in in Austria, you guessed it right, the name of the castle was Castle Liechtenstein!

With its picturesque hiking trails, cute little city centre, and a ski resort town Liechtenstein is a perfect little country to add to your bucket list on your way to Switzerland. Three to five days should be more than enough to cover all the regions of this country. Allow me to briefly touch on the history of this beautiful tiny country.

Liechtenstein is the one and only remaining kingdom from The Holy Roman Empire and I’ll tell you exactly how that happened. Once upon a time there was a Holy Roman Emperor called Joseph I and he suddenly died of smallpox in 1711 and unexpectedly his younger brother Charles 6th succeeded him and became the next Holy Roman Emperor who happen to have this random dude called Anton Florian of Liechtenstein as his Chief Intendant during the War of the Spanish Succession. So ofcourse Florian was there for Charles’ coronation, the best buddies they were.
Now this Mr. Anton Florian couldn’t be admitted to the Reichstag, which required that all members had land that was subordinate only to the Emperor as opposed to land held in fief by higher nobles. So, Anton Florian locally known as Anton Florian of Liechtenstein since he lived in a meideval castle in Austria called Liechtenstein Castle, bought some properties like the Lordship of Schellenberg and Count of Vaduz, and Charles 6th The Holy Roman Emperor decreed that Vaduz and Schellenberg be united and elevated to the dignity of Principality honouring his true servant Anton Florian of Liechtenstein, and thus came the Alpine country of Liechtenstein into existence, now being the only monarchy of the Holy Roman Empire that exists.

Our 2020 lecture Stein Oh lectures time what should I say about it it’s a gem of a country the country was named after a family who themselves were named after a castle they lived in in Austria you guys to ride the name of the castle was Castle Liechtenstein Liechtenstein is

The one and only remaining kingdom from the Holy Roman Empire and I’ll tell you exactly how that happened once upon a time there was a holy roman emperor called joseph the first and he suddenly died of smallpox in 1711 and i unexpectedly his younger brother Charles 2-6 succeeded him and became the next

Holy Roman Emperor who happened to have this random dude called Anton Florian of Liechtenstein as his chief Intendant during the war of the Spanish Succession so of course Florian was there for Charles coronation and they were quite good buddies now this mr. Anton Florian couldn’t be admitted to the Reichstag

Which required that all the members had land that was subordinate only to the Emperor as opposed to the land held in fief by higher Nobles so Anton Florian locally known as Anton Florian of little time since he lived in a medieval castle in Austria called lacustrine Castle bought some properties like the lordship

Of schellenberg and count of vaduz and Charles 2/6 the Holy Roman Emperor decreed that vaduz and schellenberg be united and elevated to the dignity of principality honoring his true servant Anton Florian of later time and thus came the Alpine country of Liechtenstein into existence but they’re not for once

Thing that the royal family smoothly stem down till date I’m gonna tell you beforehand that some of the dates will overlap one another I think it’s because some of the royal family members might have decided to abdicate the throne in favour of their successor beforehand so

Bear with me on that so let me begin with Anton Florian Prince of Liechtenstein he ruled from 1656 to 1721 Josef Johann Adam 1692 1732 Joseph Wenzel the first 1696 to 1770 he had no children so his nephew Franz Joseph the first became his heir Franz Joseph first 1726 to 1781

Louise the first 1759 to 1805 Johann the first Joseph 1760 to 1836 ha Louise the second 1796 to 1858 Johann the second 1840 to 1929 the second longest reigning monarch in European history after louis xiv of france then came France first 1853 to 1938 youngest son of Eloise the

Second Franz did not have children so his heir presumptive was his nephew Prince Alois but Prince always removed himself from the line of succession in favor of his son franz joseph ii in 1923 franz joseph ii from 1906 to 1989 and then hands adams 2nd 1945 to present and

Is currently Prince of Liechtenstein now and his heir apparent Regent is Prince Louise such is the complicated family line where right now the throne has now gone to the nephew of the nephew of Liechtenstein family but Frankie it’s best not to think much about all this

And be lost in the beauty of this majestic Alpine country and it’s beautiful castles unfortunately you can’t visit Baloo’s castle as the Prince of Liechtenstein still lives in it which is Mac in the center of the city of vaduz which has a population of around 5,000 only possible

In a country which has a population of 38,000 but it’s highly recommended to visit Guttenberg castle built during the Middle Ages in the village of Moses everything – Stein is a 20 minutes bike ride away or half an hour bus ride away since the country is just 160 square kilometers so
