Rise and fall of the Habsburg Empire

 Habsburg, once a European loser, was the owner of tremendous power. How did Habsburg gain such a powerful power and collapse so easily? In terms of territory, in the heyday of Habsburg, they ruled vast areas that owned newly conquered America, Spain, Austria, the Netherlands, Germany, and parts of Italy. It was none other than a marriage policy that the Habsburg family gained such vast territory. In medieval Europe, political marriages were popular, and land inheritance was followed. With the marriage of the queen of the unified Spanish dynasty and the prince of Habsburg, their children acquire vast territories of Spain and Austria. Habsburg received enormous support from the Pope in its early days. At that time, the Habsburg Empire was the only country in Europe that was capable of confronting Ottoman Turkey head-on, so the church gives Habsburg a lot of power. In addition, Habsburg, which was able to effectively confront them when reformist Protestants came to Europe, received a lot of approval from the church, and Habsburg was expected to achieve the unification of the Christian world. But why did they decline so easily in Habsburg? The decline of a huge empire has a number of complex reasons, making it difficult to conclude easily. But we can make a guess that's roughly true. First of all, the territory of the Habsburg dynasty was separated from each other. As a result, transportation was inconvenient and communication was difficult accordingly. In this situation, it would have been quite difficult to centralize the kingdom. In addition, France is an emerging powerhouse in the territory of Habsburg, so Habsburg has not effectively united the west of the empire and the east of the empire. In addition, the German princes were very ambitious with each other and were steadily waiting for Habsburg to show a gap. The fact that the British Republic of Korea helped the Dutch independence and steadily disturbed the Habsburg transportation network. The Habsburg royal family foolishly trusted the resources of the new continent so much that it suffered from tremendous inflation by neglecting its own economy. The fact that Europe basically had a great sense of regional independence. It can be seen that Habsburg, which had to deal with the French, Dutch, British, and German Prince's Allied Forces at once, possessed really poor diplomatic power. Even the money that was collected from the New World could not cover the cost of the war. Habsburg could have maintained the Italian Peninsula and Naples at that time and given up the Netherlands, but they were greedy and eventually lost both. Even after the war against them, Habsburg did not recover from the damage, but resumed the war with Ottoman Turkey. Eventually, the Habsburg Dynasty, located in Spain, was destroyed by the Bourbon royal family of France in the 17th century. After that, Habsburg, Austria, remained, but despite steady development, it eventually failed to regain its glory in the 16th century. PS.
