List of Empresses of Austria
- List of Empresses of Austria
This is a list of the Austrian Empresses, consorts of the Emperors of Austria, an hereditary title proclaimed in 1804 by the Austrian Habsburg Holy Roman Emperor Francis II before the end of the Holy Roman Empire. He became known as Francis I of Austria and the title, Emperor of Austria, has been continually held by him and his immediate successors until the title of Emperor of Austria and the associated Empire were both abolished at the end of the First World War in 1918, when German Austria became a republic and the other kingdoms and lands represented in the Imperial Council established their independence or adhesion to other states.
Empresses of Austria also held the titles: Queen of Hungary, Queen consort of Croatia, Slavonia, and Dalmatia and Queen consort of Bohemia.
The title lasted just a little over one century, 1804 to 1918.
