The House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha-Koháry is the catholic Cadet branch of the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. It was founded with the marriage of Prince Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha with Princess Maria Antonia Koháry de Csábrág. Among its descendants are the last three kings of Portugal (Luis I, Carlos I, Manuel II), and the last three kings of Bulgaria (Ferdinand I, Boris III, Simeon II). ==History== After the marriage with Princess Maria Antonia Koháry de Csábrág in January 1816〔http://www.kuk-wehrmacht.de/biograph/b0003scsk.html〕 and the death of his father in law, Prince Ferencz József Koháry de Csábrág, Prince Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha inherited the Hungarian princely estate of Koháry, and converted to Roman Catholicism. The descendants of his branch managed to marry an imperial princess of Brazil, an archduchess of Austria, a royal princess of "the French", a royal princess of Belgium and a royal princess of Saxony. A scion of this branch, also named Ferdinand, became Prince, and then Tsar, of Bulgaria, and his descendants continued to rule there until 1946. The current head of the House of Bulgaria, the former Tsar Simeon II who was deposed and exiled after World War II, goes by the name ''Simeon Sakskoburggotski'' and served as Bulgaria's prime minister from 2001 to 2005. Ferdinand and Antonia had four children all of whom were raised Catholic: # Ferdinand II of Portugal (1816–1885). # August (1818–1881); he was the father of Tsar Ferdinand I of Bulgaria. # Victoria (1822–1857), married Louis, Duke of Nemours. # Leopold (1824–1884).
