    12.15 Alexandra Feodorovna, Last Empress of Russia
    Jun 6 2024
    Alexandra was born German, but she married into the Romanov dynasty of Russia. Her marriage is one of European royalty's few great love stories. But the world of the late 19th century was one where absolute monarchies were crumbling, and her family's fall is also one of European royalty's saddest tragedies.

    12.13 Lili'uokalani, Last Queen of Hawaii
    May 23 2024
    Lili'uokalani did not grow up expecting to be queen, but once she was, she had no intention of being a figurehead. Unfortunately, that is what big business and foreign investors wanted her to be. Their clashes were (mostly) nonviolent, but a coup toppled the monarchy and eventually Hawaii was annexed by the United States.

    12.12 Lakshmibai, Last Rani of Jhansi
    May 16 2024
    Lakshmibai is India's Joan of Arc. When the English claimed her country, she fought back. Her story is the most famous part of what the English called the Indian Mutiny of 1857 and the Indians call the First War of Independence. Though she lost in the end, Lakshmibai's story (and glory) lives on in Indian popular culture. Visit the website (herhalfofhistory.com) for sources, transcripts, and pictures.

    12.11 Marie Antoinette, the Bitter End
    May 9 2024
    For Marie Antoinette, the end was more bitter than she could possibly have imagined. After four years of imprisonment, several failed escape plans, and an endless onslaught of (mostly) false accusations, she went to her death.

  • 12.10 Marie Antoinette, the Unfortunate Queen

    12.10 Marie Antoinette, the Unfortunate Queen
    May 2 2024
    This is the 2nd of 3 episodes on Marie Antoinette. She is now queen, but it's not as fabulous as it sounds because her marriage needs counseling and her household budget is out of control. Though she did spend a lot, she spent far less than she was blamed for, especially during the infamous necklace affair, in which some ingenious criminals pulled off a jewel heist, and somehow people thought it was all the queen's fault. France's finances were plummeting (not because of her), women marched on Versailles in protest, and the royal family emerged as prisoners.
