Biography
Austrian Archduke, the second son of the Habsburg ruler Maria Theresa and her husband, Francis I, Holy Roman Emperor. Karl (Charles) Joseph was the favourite son of Maria Theresa and Francis. He is known to have hated his older brother, the future Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II. He ridiculed him for his haughtiness and thought himself to be more deserving of the Crown of the Holy Roman Empire because he was the first son born to Francis during his reign as emperor. The rivalry between the brothers was ended by Karl Joseph's death from smallpox on 18 January 1761, two weeks before his sixteenth birthday.
