Great, here I was about to say I thought the Habsburgs were Austrian, and now I have the Wikipedia page open for Habsburg Spain open. Thanks a lot, both sarcastically and unironically.

They interbred with every European royal family. The Windsors are less Hapsburg than others, iirc they still have some. The Spanish were majorly hapsburg. The Russians too. Marie Antoinette was one too.

I don't think the Napoleons ever got super hapsburg though

Looked it up because my European history teacher in high school was an austriaboo who spelled it with a p, but apparently it's a less common and older variant found in American English
