Grandmother of Europe

Published: Aug. 9, 2020, 5 p.m.

Traditionally, the royal families of Europe would arrange marriages amongst their children to establish alliances and bonds between their houses. 

While this really isn’t done that much anymore, it also wasn’t that long ago that it was done. One monarch, in particular, Queen Victoria, was really good and marrying off her children. So good in fact that almost every royal house in Europe can trace their ancestry back to her.
