Ferdinando Carlo, Duke (Duchy of Mantova) : All Data

Ferdinando Carlo was the Duke of Mantova, reigning from 1695 to 1708. During his tenure, the most significant war was the War of the Spanish Succession, which lasted from 1701 to 1714. This conflict saw various European powers vying for control over the Spanish throne. Although the war extended beyond Ferdinando Carlo's reign, it undoubtedly had an impact on his rule and the Duchy of Mantova. Additionally, the Nine Years' War, which took place from 1688 to 1697, occurred at the beginning of Ferdinando Carlo's reign and likely shaped his early years as Duke.
