politician Austria

Zita of Bourbon-Parma was the last Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary, known for her resilience during the tumultuous times of the World Wars. After the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, she and her family fled across Europe, eventually finding refuge in Canada. Zita's legacy is intertwined with the famed Florentine Diamond and other Habsburg jewels, which she safeguarded during her exile. Her descendants recently announced that these treasures would remain in Canada as a gesture of gratitude towards the country that provided them sanctuary.
