The ability to decide when or if we have children has been an essential human struggle for all of recorded history. Some may believe that abortion is a modern phenomenon. But people have been finding ways to end unwanted pregnancies for thousands of years. And ancient people were often more accepting of it than we are today. From an herb in ancient Greece that was so popular it went extinct, to medieval Popes who argued for women’s rights. From a plan B recipe published by an American founding father, to the horrifying measures desperate women without access to legal care have resorted to. Today we will explore the history of abortion. What’s more, we’ll take a wider view on times throughout history when governments attempted to control their people through reproductions, including in Nazi Germany, Communist Romania and China, and in the United States. Fair warning: this episode will deal with many difficult and dark chapters in history. Please do not take any of this information as medical advice.

What was a clan and how did they work? Does my last name mean that I belong to a certain clan and that I can only wear that clan’s tartan?

In that time they made plenty of enemies. From a grief-stricken mother who foretold the demise of the dynasty, to a scorned Tsaritsa who cursed St. Petersburg to calamity. From a hermit monk who claimed to know the hour of Catherine the Great’s death, to another monk, Rasputin, who cursed Tsar Nikolai’s family for causing his death. All culminating in the tragic slaying of the Imperial family, which fulfilled not one but two famous curses. Let’s take a spooky stroll through 3 centuries of Russia’s dark history and explore 4 curses and ominous prophecies laid on the Romanov dynasty. 1. “You began with the death of a Tsarevich, you will end with the death of a Tsarevich!” Ivan the Terrible, False Dmitry, Marina Mniszech, Michael Romanov 2. “St. Petersburg shall be empty!” Peter the Great, Eudoxia Lopukhina, Empress Catherine I 3. “Empress Catherine will die in 10 months and 10 days!” Catherine the Great, Monk Abel, Emperor Peter III, Emperor Paul I 4. Rasputin’s Curse "The Russian people will kill them!"

The very symbols of power, wealth, majesty and royalty. It was a shining signal to the mud-caked peasantry that here was a person who was above them and blessed from above. You can’t be the King without the Bling. Let’s take a closer look at 10 incredible crowns from history. I’ve selected this list based on their fame, historic importance, beauty, and their fascinating stories, like the power to kill Nazis. They span the globe and history, so let’s begin with the ancient diadems and work out way to the modern, eye-popping crown jewels.

Everyone who signs up to my giveaway with @bellesaco wins something! https://www.shopbboutique.co/vibe/lindsayholiday-yt I'm at Hampton Court Palace in the Communication Gallery to look at a very special collection of paintings, the Windsor Beauties. These portraits immortalize 10 woman said to be the most stunning members of the restoration court. They exude elegance, confidence, and more than a hint of seduction. It was long whispered that famous philanderer, King Charles II used the paintings like a catalog, to choose which lovely lady would be his bedfellow for the evening. His lascivious majesty would then place his order with the Keeper of his Privy Closet, known as his ‘Pimp-master General’ who would then call for the patiently waiting lucky lady. The Windsor beauties gained such a notorious reputation that by 1835, the now prudish royal court despised them. The collection was consigned to Hampton court Palace, which was no longer a royal residence. But were the Windsor beauties really just restoration Pinups, or is there more to the story? Let’s meet the real women rendered in colorful goop, and find out why they were chosen. We’ll discover who was and was not a royal mistress, and which beauties were sleeping with each others husbands. We’ll learn how they traded beauty for power and wealth, and find out if they were really as attractive as their famous portraits. Let’s get to know the Windsor Beauties: Elizabeth Hamilton, Comtesse de Gramont Mary Bagot, Countess of Falmouth & Dorset Elizabeth Wriothesley, Countess of Northumberland Anne Digby, Countess of Sunderland Jane Needham, Mrs. Myddelton Margaret Brooke, Lady Denham Frances Brooke, Lady Whitmore Henrietta Boyle, Countess of Rochester Barbara Villiers, Duchess of Cleveland Frances Stuart, Duchess of Richmond and Lennox Anne Hyde, Duchess of York & Albany Please consider supporting me at https://www.patreon.com/LindsayHoliday Check out the History Tea Time Podcast: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7iW8gOI5wb5TNFAIhBd9Om?si=46aeeacd64214ac0 Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/history-tea-time/id1619978406 Google: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy84Yzg1ZWU5MC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw Follow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100091781568503 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/historyteatimelindsayholiday/ Music: Baroque Coffee House by Doug Maxwell For business inquiries, please contact LindsayHoliday@ellify.com </video> <video> Book Germany 🇩🇪 & Austria 🇦🇹 NOW!

Please consider supporting me at https://www.patreon.com/LindsayHoliday Witch! The word struck terror in the hearts of many a medieval man. It whispers of people, mostly women, using dark magic and even selling their souls to Satan to get what they want. Forcing men to fall in love with them and cursing their enemies. Sorceresses have been feared since ancient times. And while their certainly have been purveyors of magical arts throughout history, it was often healers, midwives, girls dabbling in divination games and innocent people who were accused of the most heinous of enchanted crimes. Between 1300 and 1850, nearly 40,000 people in Europe were victims of witch trials. And 14,000 met their end on the gallows or the pyre. Some of them came from the highest ranks of society, even the royal family. In fact witchcraft was a convenient accusation to level against inconvenient royal women. As courts operated on a notion of guilty until proven innocent, and it was infuriatingly difficult to prove that you hadn’t danced in the moonlight, uttered a curse or poisoned the king, the stigma of sorcery was strong. Let’s meet 7 women from history who were accused of being Royal Witches. Valentina Visconti, Duchess of Orléans , 1371 – 1408 Veronika Desinićka, Countess of Celje , ? – 1425 Joan of Navarre, Queen of England , 1368 – 1437 Jacquetta of Luxembourg, Duchess of Bedford , 1415 – 1472 Eleanor Cobham, Duchess of Gloucester, 1400 – 1452 Elizabeth Woodville, Queen of England ,1437 – 1492 Anne Boleyn, Queen of England , 1501? – 1536 Sources: Hollman, G.

Start your free trial TODAY or give an amazing gift for a limited time! Ridley Scott’s epic historical sequel, Gladiator II promises to be a dramatic and spectacular, if not particularly historically accurate roller-coaster ride through the Roman Empire. And while there are already some excellent videos out there discussing the authenticity of the battle scenes, dramatic deaths and exactly which era saw the flooding of the Colosseum, I want to take a look at something different – the cast of characters and their real historic counterparts. Today let’s explore the family trees which connect the key players, sort out who was real and who was fictional, meet a few fascinating women who did more than wait around to be rescued, and discover everyone’s true fates, which are even more dramatic than Hollywood could come up with. Caution, there will be some spoilers, but I won’t give away the ending of the new film, only what really happened in history.

In the 700s he conquered a vast empire. He is considered the progenitor of the French monarchy, several Germany dynasties and more. He even forced the Pope to crown him Holy Roman Emperor. But while Charlemagne was busy converting pagans to Christianity at sword point, his love life was far from holy. The great emperor had 4 or 5 wives, the relationship statues of one has long been debated for a very cruel reason. And at least 4 concubines. Many of his romantic entanglements were going on simultaneously. And the influence these women had on imperial politics shocked clerics of the day. In total, they presented the king with 18 children. And so many heirs planted the seeds for the destruction of the Carolingian Empire. Today let’s meet Emperor Charlemagne’s many wives and concubines.

With so much money and power, royals were able to invent some pretty unique and creative ways to slay their enemies, or accidentally seal their own doom. From a Chinese Emperor’s deadly elixir of life to a steamy Roman romance that got a little too scalding hot. From a court jester so hilarious he made a Spanish king litrally die laughing, to a Swedish King’s massive last meal of caviar, champagne and cream puffs. Let’s dig up 10 truly bizarre royal deaths. 1. Hatshepsut, Pharaoh of Egypt 1507–1458 BC, Toxic Lotion 2. Qin Shi Huangdi, Emperor of China 259 - 210 BC, Deadly Elixir of Life 3.

The idea of giving the most important person in a given space a special place to sit is near-universal. Many ancient civilizations placed their rulers, priests and gods on thrones. They became so synonymous with royalty that “the throne” is a byword for monarchy itself. Let’s take a closer look at 10 fabulous royal thrones from history. I’ve selected this list based on their fame, historic importance, beauty, and their fascinating stories. They span the globe and history. So find a comfortable seat, as we examine where ancient and modern monarchs rested their behinds. 1. Throne of Knossos, 1400s BCE 2. Golden Throne of Tutankhamun, 1323 BCE 3. Throne of Charlemagne, 790s 4. Chair of Saint Peter, 875 5. St. Edward’s Chair, 1296 6. Throne of Montezuma, 1507 7. Peacock Throne of the Mugal Empire, 1635 8. Coronation Chair of Denmark, 1662 9.
