You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Charles, Margrave of Burgau''', also known as ''Charles of Austria'', (22 November 1560 at [[Křivoklát Castle]] in Bohemia &ndash; 30 October 1618 in [[Überlingen]]<ref name=hdbg/>), was the son of Archduke [[Ferdinand II, Archduke of Austria|Ferdinand II]] of Austria and his first [[morganatic marriage|morganatic]] marriage to [[Philippine Welser]]. He was the brother of [[Margrave Andrew of Burgau|Andrew of Austria]].

== Biography ==
Charles of Burgau pursued a military career.  He unsuccessfully led a Spanish regiment in the war against the Netherlands and was then deployed in the [[Long War (Ottoman wars)|Long War]] against the [[Ottoman Empire]].  Here, he recorded some successes &mdash; at the expense of his soldiers, who were hungry and unpaid; some of them deserted &mdash; and was promoted to [[Field Marshal]].

His father died in 1595.  Since Charles was born from a [[morganatic marriage]], he was not entitled to inherit the archduchy.  He was, however, amply compensated financially and given some territories.  His most important possession was the [[Margraviate of Burgau]].  He also held the [[Landgraviate of Nellenburg]] and the [[County of Hohenberg]].  Contemporary sources describe his magnificent court at his residence, [[Günzburg]] Castle.

Charles was not popular among his subjects, whom he forbade to drink [[wheat beer]].  Nor was he popular among the noble residents of his [[margraviate]], who included the [[Prince-Bishopric of Augsburg|Bishop of Augsburg]], the Counts of [[Fugger]] and the [[Free imperial city|free imperial cities]] of [[Ulm]] and [[Augsburg]], and with whom he had conflict about tax increases and about their sovereign rights.

In 1615 or 1616, he founded a Capuchin monastery in Günzburg.  In 1617, he expelled the Jews from Günzburg; they were ordered to leave the city within a year.

Charles died on 30 October 1618.  In 1619, his body was transferred to the church of the Capuchin monastery in Günzburg.<ref name=hdbg>Alexandra Kohlberger: ''Günzburg – Kapuzinergruft für einen Habsburger'', [https://archive.today/20130106034022/http://www.hdbg.de/kloester/kloester_detailansicht_basisdaten.php?templ=relaunch_vorlage_detail_geschichte&id=KS0502 Online] in the database of Bavarian monasteries of the [[Haus der Bayerischen Geschichte]], viewed on 25 August 2010</ref>  His widow as also buried there, in 1627.  When the monastery was demolished in 1806, both bodies were transferred to St. Martin's church in Günzburg.

== Marriage and issue ==
In 1601, Charles married [[Sibylle of Jülich-Cleves-Berg|Sibylle]] (26 August 1557 &ndash; 1627), the daughter of Duke [[William, Duke of Jülich-Cleves-Berg|William]] of Jülich-Cleves-Berg.  This marriage remained childless, and after Charles's death, his possessions fell back to the main line of the [[House of Habsburg]].<ref>Constantin von Wurzbach: Habsburg, Karl (Markgraf von Burgau). In: Biographisches Lexikon des Kaiserthums Oesterreich. vol. 6, Vienna 1860, p. 364</ref>

However, Charles had several children from extramarital affairs:<ref>[[Johann Georg Keyßler]], ''Neueste Reisen durch Deutschland, Böhmen, Ungarn'', Band 1, Hannover 1751, [https://books.google.com/books?id=07xPAAAAcAAJ&q=%22aus+menschlicher+Bl%C3%B6digkeit%22&pg=PA22 p. 22–23]</ref>
