Princess Sofie Renate Reuß (27 June 1884 – 19 January 1968) was the third child and only daughter of Prince Heinrich VII Reuß, J.L., proprietor of the Köstritz paragium, and Princess Marie of Saxe-Weimar.[1] Her mother was the daughter of Charles Alexander, Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar by his wife, Princess Sophie of the Netherlands.[2] She was born in Mauer, Vienna in Austria.

Her three children, all of whom married and left children, were:

gollark: It can only do I think 32 or 22Gbps PCIe plus some DisplayPort.

gollark: Interestingly, the 40Gbps figure is for the actual link between the Thunderbolt controller and CPU.

gollark: Will they actually set up the link automatically for file transfer? I'm pretty sure Thunderbolt is just PCIe/DisplayPort over a cable.

gollark: If you don't prefix it with a slash, substitution with s/thing/thing actually works on discord web/possibly desktop.
