What Happened to the Last Habsburg Emperor After His Empire Fell

On a gray morning in November 1921, a British light cruiser carried Charles, the last Habsburg emperor, away from the empire he had ruled. Having lost his throne at the end of the First World War and failed twice to retake Hungary, he was exiled to the remote Portuguese island of Madeira. This comprehensive summary explores the tragic downfall of Charles, his failed restoration attempts, his premature death at thirty-four, and the enduring legacy of the Habsburg dynasty through the lives of Empress Zita and their son Otto.
