Charles Louis, Hereditary Prince of Baden (February 14, 1755 – December 16, 1801) was heir apparent of the Margraviate of Baden. He was born in Karlsruhe. He was the son of Margrave Charles Frederick (who in 1803, after Charles Louis's death, became the elector and in 1806 the first Grand Duke of Baden) and Landgravine Caroline Louise of Hesse-Darmstadt (July 11, 1723 - April 8, 1783), the daughter of Landgrave Louis VIII of Hesse-Darmstadt. He was an ancestor of Franz Joseph I of Austria, Elisabeth of Austria-Hungary, Nicholas II of Russia and his wife Alexandra Feodorovna (Alix of Hesse), Lord Mountbatten and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, among others. ==Marriage and issue== Charles Louis married his first cousin Landgravine Amalie of Hesse-Darmstadt (June 20, 1754 – July 21, 1832, on July 15, 1774). She was the daughter of Landgrave Louis IX of Hesse-Darmstadt. They had eight children: * Amalie (July 13, 1776 – October 26, 1823) * Karoline (July 13, 1776 – November 13, 1841) married on March 9, 1797 the then Count Palatine Maximilian of Zweibrücken (May 27, 1756 – October 13, 1825 as his second wife (and became maternal grandmother of Empress Sisi and her husband Franz Joseph I of Austria). In 1799 her husband became Elector Palatine and Elector of Bavaria, and in 1804 King of Bavaria (her titles accordingly being Duchess, then Electress, then Queen). * Louise (January 24, 1779 – May 16, 1826) married on October 9, 1793 Tsar Alexander I of Russia (December 23, 1777 – December 1, 1825). * Frederica (March 12, 1781 – September 25, 1826) married on October 31, 1797 King Gustav IV Adolf of Sweden.

Works of history mention that his children succeeded well in marriage market and that the Hereditary Prince was the force behind that. At the time of his death in Arboga, Sweden (which occurred during the visit to his fourth daughter, the ''Queen of Sweden''), two of his other daughters were, respectively, ''Electress'' of Bavaria and the newly ascended ''Empress of Russia''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Charles Louis, Hereditary Prince of Baden」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
