>The Victorians––Hapsburg-descended Queen Victoria and Saxon Prince Albert among them––were steeped in Goethe. I've never heard of queen Victoria having Habsburg ancestry and I can't find any details on this other than AI hallucinations.

> I've never heard of queen Victoria having Habsburg ancestry AFAIK, the only Hapsburg to come near her throne was Phillip II of Spain, husband of Queen Mary (16th C). Ah! I just checked, and the article now contains the following: Correction: This article has been updated to reflect that Queen Victoria was of Hanoverian, not Hapsburg, descent.
