¡Feliz Cumpleaños, Carlota de México!


AKA María Carlota Amalia Augusta Victoria Clementina Leopoldina de Sajonia-Coburgo y Orleáns Borbón-Dos Sicilas y Habsburgo-Lorena.

Born June 7, 1840. Died January 19, 1927.

She was the former Empress Consort of Mexico as well as the wife and widow of Maximilian I of Mexico.

Thanks to her, actress Bette Davis got to play one of her more memorable movie roles.

She also had a profound influence on Mexican history but alas, not a positive one.
