Seventh child, second son (shows)

Title: Archduke

Not married off to anyone

No role, unfortunately, too young.

He hated his older brother, the Crowned Prince and future Emperor, he thought he deserved the crown more and in my opinion was right. He even meant to contend for the imperial crown since he was the first son of Maria as empress.

The favourite son, the golden child! He was extraverted, charming, intelligent and open-minded, while his brother was cold and reserved.

Told his mother at his death bead: You should not weep for me, dear mother, for had I lived, I would have brought you many more tears!

Died at sixteen - forever young!

Role in Adult Life:

Joseph II is best known as one of the enlightened monarchs of Europe. He sought to modernize and reform his empire. His reforms were wide-ranging, including the abolition of serfdom, religious tolerance, reduction of the power of the Catholic Church, and modernization of the economy. He was highly influenced by Enlightenment ideas, which earned him the title of an “enlightened despot.” However, many of his reforms were met with resistance.

Controversies:

• Joseph’s reforms, while progressive, were often implemented in a top-down manner that alienated many groups. His attempt to impose German as the official language angered non-German-speaking parts of his empire.

• His religious reforms, which included reducing the influence of the Catholic Church and granting religious tolerance to Protestants and Jews, sparked opposition from the clergy.

• The abolition of serfdom, while seen as progressive, also caused economic and social upheaval, especially in Hungary, where the nobility opposed it.

• Many of his reforms were rolled back after his death due to widespread unrest and opposition.

Peter Leopold held two significant roles during his lifetime:

1. Grand Duke of Tuscany (1765–1790)

Role: As the Grand Duke of Tuscany, Peter Leopold was responsible for governing this Italian state. His tenure was marked by progressive reforms aimed at modernizing the economy, administration, and legal systems.

Key Contributions:

Economic Reforms: He restructured agriculture, promoted the redistribution of land, and encouraged more productive farming practices.

Legal and Penal Reforms: His most notable achievement was the Leopoldine Code (1786), which abolished capital punishment and torture, making Tuscany one of the first states to abolish the death penalty.

Secularization: He reduced the power and wealth of the Catholic Church, confiscated church lands, and promoted religious tolerance, bringing Tuscany closer to a secular state.

2. Holy Roman Emperor (1790–1792)

Role: Upon the death of his brother, Joseph II, Peter Leopold ascended the throne as Leopold II, Holy Roman Emperor. In this role, he became the ruler of the Holy Roman Empire, which included large parts of Central Europe.

Key Contributions:

Diplomacy: As Emperor, he sought to balance the competing interests of the major European powers. He was particularly cautious about intervening in the French Revolution but eventually supported efforts to curb the spread of revolutionary ideals.

Maintaining Stability: Leopold II tried to stabilize the empire after his brother’s aggressive reforms caused unrest. He repealed some of Joseph II's policies that had alienated the nobility and church, aiming to restore balance within the empire.

Military and Foreign Policy: In the latter part of his reign, Leopold II worked with other European monarchs to oppose the French Revolution, notably by issuing the Declaration of Pillnitz (1791), which called for the restoration of the French monarchy.

In both roles, Peter Leopold was seen as a reformer and a stabilizer. His governance of Tuscany is particularly admired for its early human rights advancements, while his time as Emperor was focused on preserving the stability of the Holy Roman Empire during a turbulent period in European history.
