Empress Elisabeth “Sisi“ of Austria

Please consider supporting me at and help me make more fascinating videos! Enjoying the Netflix romantic drama “The Empress“? Check out the real story of Empress Elisabeth “Sisi“ of Austria. Elisabeth of Austria was a shy woman who’s beauty won the heart of Emperor Franz Joseph. She suffered under heavy expectations and a frankly evil mother in law. She was forced into a limelight she never wanted and into the path of an assassin. This video is part of my 20 episode series profiling the most fascinating Queens of Europe.
