After advancing into Austria in the late thirteenth century, the Habsburgs increased in power and established an extensive empire with Austria as their base. The House of Habsburg monopolized the sovereignty of Holy Roman Emperor from the fifteenth century onwards. When they branched into the Austrian and Spanish lineages in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the latter acquired territory in Asia, Africa, and America, truly realizing \u201can empire on which the sun never set.\u201d Following the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire triggered by the Napoleonic Wars, the Habsburgs then governed the succeeding Austrian Empire (which was reorganized as the Austro-Hungarian Dual Monarchy in 1867 and lasted until 1918). Having continued to rule over extensive territories and diverse races over several centuries, the House of Habsburg could indeed be regarded the most distinguished family in Europe.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div id=\"attachment_129180\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-129180\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-600x719.jpg\" alt=\"adfwebmagazine_habsburg\" width=\"600\" height=\"719\" class=\"wp-image-129180 size-ADFwebimage600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-600x719.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-125x150.jpg 125w, https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-250x300.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-768x921.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-230x276.jpg 230w, https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-334x400.jpg 334w, https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-584x700.jpg 584w, https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-500x600.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-417x500.jpg 417w, https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg-759x910.jpg 759w, https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/adfwebmagazine_habsburg.jpg 834w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-129180\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Diego Rodr\u00edguez de Silva y Vel\u00e1zque \"Infanta Margarita Teresa (1651\u20131673) in a Blue Dress\" 1659, Oil and Canvas, Kunsthistorisches Museum, Wien<\/p><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>Making the most of their wealth and networks, the Habsburgs are also known for having established some of the world\u2019s leading collections, both quality and quantity-wise.
