Early life and background

Marie Antoinette was born at Großharthau, Kingdom of Saxony, the first child of Sizzo, Prince of Schwarzburg (1860–1926), and his wife, Princess Alexandra of Anhalt (1868–1958). Her father was the son of Friedrich Günther, Prince of Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt, and Countess Helena of Raina; and her mother was the daughter of Frederick I, Duke of Anhalt, and Princess Antoinette of Saxe-Altenburg. Through her mother she was descendant of King Frederick William II of Prussia.

Marriage

Marie Antoinette married on 4 January 1925 in Wildenfels to Friedrich Magnus V, Count of Solms-Wildenfels (1886–1945), only son of Friedrich Magnus IV, Count of Solms-Wildenfels and his wife, Anna Jacqueline, Countess of Bentinck-Aldenburg-Middachten.

They had five children:

  • Countess Anne of Solms-Wildenfels (born 1 January 1926)
  • Friedrich Magnus VI, Count of Solms-Wildenfels (b. 18 January 1927); married three times. His first marriage was in 1948 to Katharina Duerst; they divorced in 1954 and remarried in 1966; had issue. His second marriage was in 1971 to Gisela Frania; they divorced in 1972 and had no issue. His third marriage was in 1994 to Gisella Marie Parsoll, with whom he had no issue.

House of Schwarzburg

On 21 April 1896 her father was recognised as a dynast of the House of Schwarzburg, having previously not had dynastic rights due to his parents' morganatic marriage.[1] Following her brother's death in 1971, the House of Schwarzburg became extinct in the male line.

gollark: Anyway, the description for Causal Mondays (a chronoxeno) does mention actual time travel and was accepted, so presumably there is *some* support for the idea of time magic extending to time travel.
gollark: It doesn't have to be a duel to the death.
gollark: Of course, aeons/chronos are, strictly speaking, only explicitly only shown to have views of the future/past and time speed change, respectively.
gollark: Look cute? Peck at other dragons feebly?
gollark: Yes, and most sensibly-thought-out time travel models, if the consequences are properly explored, allow ridiculous power.
