House Of Balbo Bertone
The House of Balbo Bertone is a Piedmontese family that held a preeminent position in the politics of medieval and early Renaissance Chieri, a Piedmontese city republic within the Holy Roman Empire, which starting from the late eleventh century struggled for independence from its Imperial liege overlords: at various times the Bishops of Turin, the Counts of Biandrate, and the Marquis of Montferrat. As the city grew in power and prosperity, it became with its sister Republic of Asti an important centre of commerce on the trade route from Genova and Italy to France, up until the 15th century. It was then incorporated completely into the County of Savoy and lost its independence. From that time on, some Balbo Bertone members participated in the political and military life of Piedmont as part of the County of Savoy, which would evolve into a Duchy, a small Kingdom and eventually the Kingdom of Italy. Theories of origin It is speculated by the authors of the known histories of Chieri ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

He was a monarch from birth as his father, Alfonso XII, had died the previous year. Alfonso's mother, Maria Christina of Austria, served as regent until he assumed full powers on his sixteenth birthday in 1902. Alfonso XIII's upbringing and public image were closely linked to the military estate, often presenting himself as a soldier-king. His effective reign started four years after the so-called 1898 Disaster, with various social factions projecting their expectations of national regeneration upon him. Similarly to other European monarchs of his time, he played an important political role, entailing a highly controversial use of his constitutional executive powers. His wedding with Victoria Eugenie of Battenberg in 1906 was marked by a regicide attempt, from which he escaped unhar ...

Majorat
''Majorat'' () is a French term for an arrangement giving the right of succession to a specific parcel of property associated with a title of nobility to a single heir, based on male primogeniture. A majorat (fideicommis) would be inherited by the oldest son, or if there was no son, the nearest relative. This law existed in some European countries and was designed to prevent the distribution of wealthy estates between many members of the family, thus weakening their position. Majorats were one of the factors easing the evolution of aristocracy. The term is not used of English inheritances, where the concept was actually the norm, in the form of entails or fee tails. Majorats were specifically regulated by French law. In France, it was a title of property, landed or funded, attached to a title instituted by Napoleon I and abolished 1848. Often the title could not be inherited if the property did not pass to the same person. Like English entails, the implications of majorats were ...
