Notities over Charles V Leopold Nicolas de LORRAINE

Charles V (Charles Léopold Nicolas Sixte; 3 April 1643 - 18 April 1690), son of Nicholas Francis, Duke of Lorraine, and Claude Françoise of Lorraine. Charles was born in Vienna, became the brother in law of Emperor Leopold, and son in law of Emperor Ferdinand III. He was a second cousin once removed of his contemporary Louis XIV through the king's grandmother Marie de' Medici. He was from a long established family of Lorraine, who had to take refuge from the forces of France. However, he managed to become the titular Duke of Lorraine in 1675 at a time when Lorraine was occupied by France. Since 1663 he had been in imperial Habsburg service and had a very notable military career. In 1683 he became an imperial generalissimo.

Charles V was the nephew of Charles IV, Duke of Lorraine, who was forced to briefly abdicate his title to his younger brother, Nicholas Francis, when the French invaded Lorraine in 1634. The French withdrew from the Duchy in 1661, but then invaded it once again in 1670.

Charles V Duke of Lorraine was born on April 3, 1643 to Nicolas Francis in Vienna. Charles V's claim to the duchy was not recognized by his uncle, Charles IV. Since his prospects were not good he officially joined the court of Vienna in 1662. He became a distinguished soldier in service to the Habsburgs and competed twice unsuccessfully for election as King of Poland.

Charles V, Duke of Lorraine, since he was essentially stripped of all his own hereditary lands, had to work at gaining property for himself. He was engaged to marry Marie Jeanne of Savoy on 4 Feb 1662. However, he abandoned this marriage when he left the French court for the imperial. His brother Ferdinand Philip of Lorraine died in 1659 and Charles inherited the Duchy of Bar from him. In 1669, he attempted to get elected as King of Poland, but was defeated in the election by Michael Korybut Wisniowiecki. In 1678, he married Eleanor of Austria, the widow of Wisniowiecki. She was the daughter of Ferdinand III, Holy Roman Emperor. From this marriage he gained the territories of Gonzaga and Mantua. He again tried to get the crown of Poland but lost in the election to John Sobeski. The marriage to Elenora proved to be very prosperous for his family when later on his grandson, Francis I, became Holy Roman Emperor.
