WILL GIVE BRAINIEST!!!!! Why did Charles VI issue a rule that women could inherit Hapsburg lands?

History
1 answer:
zhannawk [14.2K]3 years ago

Charles and his wife Elizabeth Christine had not had children, since 1711, Charles had been the sole surviving male member of the House of Habsburg. Charles's older brother, Joseph I, had died without male issue, leaving Joseph's daughter Maria Josepha as the heir presumptive. That presented two problems. First, a prior agreement with his brother, known as the Mutual Pact of Succession, had agreed that in the absence of male heirs, Joseph's daughters would take precedence over Charles's daughters in all Habsburg lands. Though Charles had no children, if he were to be survived by daughters alone, they would be cut out of the inheritance. Secondly, because Salic law precluded female inheritance, Charles VI needed to take extraordinary measures to avoid a protracted succession dispute, as other claimants would have surely contested a female inheritance. Charles VI was definitely succeeded by his own elder daughter, Maria Theresa (born 1717). However, despite the promulgation of the Pragmatic Sanction, her accession in 1740 resulted in the outbreak of the War of the Austrian Succession as Charles-Albert of Bavaria, backed by France, contested her inheritance. After the war, Maria Theresa's inheritance of the Habsburg lands was confirmed by the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle, and the election of her husband, Francis I, as Holy Roman Emperor was secured by the Treaty of Füssen.

शिक्षा और रोजगार दोनों एक दूसरे के पूरक है इस विषय पर अपने विचार लिखिए
Ira Lisetskai [31]

"शिक्षा और रोजगार दोनों एक दूसरे के पूरक है इस विषय पर अपने विचार लिखिए"       means      "Write your thoughts on the subject that both education and employment complement each other"

"Education prepares you for employment so you can perform the duties that job requires. Then, that employment gives you experience that is like education, which makes it possible to get employment at a higher level. Education and employment are locked together, giving us the opportunity to learn and grow, until we reach our potential"       or         "शिक्षा आपरोजगार के लिए तैयार करता है ताकि आप कर्तव्यों है कि नौकरी की आवश्यकता है प्रदर्शन कर सकते हैं । फिर वह रोजगार आपको शिक्षा की तरह अनुभव देता है, जिससे उच्च स्तर पर रोजगार मिलना संभव हो जाता है। शिक्षा और रोजगार एक साथ बंद कर रहे हैं, हमें जानने के लिए और बढ़ने का अवसर दे रही है, जब तक हम अपनी क्षमता तक पहुंचने  "

3. What was one of the factors that motivated nations to abolish
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

During the industrial revolution, American businesses started to used modern machines to replace the existing manual labor.  This made using slaves no longer as profitable as it used to.

As a result, people started to give support to abolish slavery. But this support tends to be coming from the northern states. At that time, the southern states were not as willing to adopt the technology from the industrial revolution.  This made the southern states still reliant on slaves. This is what caused the conflict that leads to the civil war
