November 1700. Spain's king is dying. No heir. The paper beside his bed will drag Europe into war.
Charles II wasn't the cause — he was the bill coming due on a 700-year strategy.
One castle in Switzerland. No army. No leverage.
By 1700, their descendants controlled Spain, Austria, and thrones from the Netherlands to the Americas. They didn't conquer it. They contracted it.
Three marriages changed the map more than any war:
1477 — Burgundy → Netherlands (trade empire)
1496 — Castile → Spain + Americas (silver empire)
1521 — Bohemia/Hungary → Eastern front
This is how the Habsburgs built an empire through dowries instead of armies — and how one missing heir turned their marriage web into a trap.
