  • I Am Descended from a Swedish King
    I am Descended from a Swedish King By Burks Oakley II 25 June 2019 Introduction I am descended from King Charles VIII of Sweden. My knowledge of this comes from a typewritten paper given to me by the Guttorp family, which is shown on the next page. This document is based on research done by Anders Malte* Viktor Guttorp (1890-1959), who was my first-cousin twice-removed. King Charles VIII This typewritten document shows Malte Guttorp’s line back to King Charles VIII, which goes through Malte Joachim August Brorström (1816-1877), who was my second-great grandfather: Who was King Charles VIII? Charles was the second Swedish king by the name of Charles (Carl/Karl), so he should have been Charles II – and indeed that is what he was called during his reign. I’ll get back to this below. Now I need to add that the Anglo-Saxon- Frankish variant of Carl/Karl is Charles. So this guy was born Karl but used the name Charles when he was king. Charles was the first Swedish monarch of the name to actually use a “regnal” number as Charles II.1 The designation Charles VIII is a posthumous invention, counting backwards from Charles IX (who was the king of Sweden from 1604–1611). Charles IX adopted his numeral according to a fictitious history of Sweden (coming up with a number of previous kings named Charles). So then they went back and retrospectively changed Charles II to Charles VIII. More Swedish Kings with the Name of Charles/Carl The current king of Sweden is Carl XVI Gustaf, and the Roman numeral XVI means that there have been a number of other Swedish kings named Carl/Charles since Charles VIII: Charles VIII – 1448-1457, 1464-1465, 1467-1470 Charles IX (Karl IX) – 1604-1611 Charles X Gustav (Karl X Gustav) – 1654-1660 Charles XI (Karl XI) – 1660-1697 Charles XII (Karl XII) – 1697-1718 Charles XIII (Karl XIII) – 1809-1818 Charles XIV John (Karl XIV Johan) (born Jean Bernadotte) – 1818-1844 Charles XV (Karl XV) – 1859-1872 1 A regnal name, or reign name, is the name used by monarchs and popes during their reigns and, subsequently, historically.

  • Empire Tours : Royal Travel Between Colonies and Metropoles Robert Aldrich and Cindy Mccreery
    1 CHAPTER ONE Empire tours : royal travel between colonies and metropoles Robert Aldrich and Cindy McCreery Royals have always been a peripatetic species. In the Ancient world, Hadrian spent more than half of his reign travelling the Roman empire, from Britain to the Black Sea to Egypt. When monarchs still led their forces into battle, as did St Louis during the Crusades and as did other medieval and early modern kings, travel to battlefi elds abroad was necessarily part of the ‘job’. With great pageantry and festivity, ‘royal entries’ marked the arrival of sovereigns into the major cities of their own realms. Emperor Charles V travelled ceaselessly through his domains in the Iberian peninsula, Low Countries, Burgundy and central Europe. Queen Elizabeth I of England made royal ‘progresses’ from one town and estate to another, sometimes bankrupting her for- tunate or unfortunate hosts. Tsar Peter the Great left imperial Russia, still an exotic, distant and, in Western eyes, near barbaric kingdom, for a ‘grand embassy’ that took him to Vienna, Amsterdam and London. Neither Charles nor Elizabeth, however, visited their possessions in the New World, nor did Peter make it to the far reaches of his contin- ental empire. Non- European royals travelled less extensively. Rulers of China, Japan, Korea and Vietnam traditionally remained immured in their for- bidden cities, though Mughal rulers on the Indian subcontinent and Moroccan sultans, like early modern European counterparts, regularly moved the court around their territories, and Ottoman and Persian rulers made visits to neighbouring states. However, Hindu sovereigns faced the loss of caste purity if they crossed the ‘black waters’, until maharajas breached that interdiction in the second half of the nine- teenth century.
