Pict. 5 Ferdinand I. Habsburg


                     The second candidate was Ferdinand Habsburg, Archduke of Austria


                     and King Luis’s brother-in-law. He also had a right to claim the throne

                     because of the agreement between Habsburg and Jagellion dynasty. The

                     agreement said that if one dynasty dies out, the second one will gain its

                     throne.  Based  on  this  agreement  he  was  also  crowned  as  the  King  of

                     Hungary in November 1527.
