Christian Ernst, Margrave of Brandenburg-Bayreuth
Christian Ernst of Brandenburg-Bayreuth (6 August 1644 in Bayreuth – 20 May 1712 in Erlangen) was a member of the House of Hohenzollern and Margrave of Brandenburg-Bayreuth.
He was the only son of Erdmann August, Hereditary Margrave ("Erbmarkgraf") of Brandenburg-Bayreuth, by his wife and first cousin, Sophie of Brandenburg-Ansbach.
The death of his father (6 February 1651) made Christian Ernst the new heir to the margraviate of Bayreuth.
At the age of ten, he succeeded his grandfather Christian as margrave when he died on 30 May 1655.
His uncle Georg Albrecht acted as regent until 1664, when Christian Ernst was declared an adult and assumed the government of his principality.

1615- d. Hof, 6 February 1651), was a member of the House of Hohenzollern and Hereditary Margrave( German:" Erbmarkgraf") of Brandenburg- Bayreuth.
He was the seventh of the nine children of Christian, Margrave of Brandenburg- Bayreuth by his wife, Marie of Prussia.
In fact, he was the third- born son but the only one to survive into adulthood; his two older brothers Georg Frederick( b. and d. 1608) and Christian Ernst( b. 1613- d. 1614) died long before his own birth.
In Ansbach on 8 December 1641, Erdmann August married the Margravine Sophie of Brandenburg- Ansbach, who was also his first cousin( daughter of Joachim Ernst, Margrave of Brandenburg- Ansbach, his father's brother).
They had only one son: Sophie died on 3 December 1646.
Erdmann August himself died four years later, aged thirty- five, in the middle of the preparations of his wedding with Sophie Agnes of Mecklenburg- Schwerin.
Because he predeceased his father, his son Christian Ernst succeeded as Margrave of Brandenburg- Bayreuth in 1655.

Christiane Eberhardine of Brandenburg-Bayreuth
Christiane Eberhardine of Brandenburg-Bayreuth (19 December 1671 – 4 September 1727) was Electress of Saxony from 1694 to 1727 (her death) and titular Queen of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth from 1697 to 1727 by marriage to Augustus II the Strong.
Not once throughout the whole of her thirty-year queenship did she set foot in Poland, instead living in Saxony in self-imposed exile.
Born a German margravine, she was called "Sachsens BetsäuleSaxony's pillar of prayer", by her Protestant subjects for her refusal to convert to Catholicism and her loyalty to the Protestant faith.
Despite the allegiance of Christiane Eberhardine and her mother-in-law, Anna Sophie of Denmark, to Lutheranism, her husband and son, later Augustus III, both became Catholics, ensuring Catholic succession in the Albertine lands after a century-and-a-half.
Augustus II the Strong
Augustus II the Strong (12 May 16701 February 1733), also known in Saxony as Frederick Augustus I, was Elector of Saxony from 1697, Imperial Vicar and elected King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania
in the years 1697–1706 and from 1709 until his death in 1733.
He was succeeded by his son, Augustus III of Poland.
Augustus' great physical strength earned him the nicknames "the Strongthe Saxon Hercules" and "Iron-Hand".
He liked to show that he lived up to his name by breaking horseshoes with his bare hands and engaging in fox tossing by holding the end of his sling with just one finger while two of the strongest men in his court held the other end.
He is also notable for fathering a very large number of children.
In order to be elected King of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, Augustus converted to Roman Catholicism.
As a Catholic, he received the Order of the Golden Fleece from the Holy Roman Emperor.
As Elector of Saxony, he is perhaps best remembered as a patron of the arts and architecture.
He established the Saxon capital of Dresden as a major cultural centre, attracting artists from across Europe to his court.
Augustus also amassed an impressive art collection and built lavish baroque palaces in Dresden and Warsaw.
His reigns brought Poland some troubled times.
He led the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth in the Great Northern War, which allowed the Russian Empire to strengthen its influence in Europe, especially within Poland.
His main pursuit was bolstering royal power in the Commonwealth, characterized by broad decentralization in comparison with other European monarchies.
He tried to accomplish this goal using foreign powers and thus destabilized the state.
Augustus ruled Poland with an interval; in 1704 the Swedes installed nobleman Stanisław Leszczyński as king, who officially reigned from 1706 to 1709 and after Augustus' death in 1733 which sparked the War of the Polish Succession.
He was buried in Poland's royal Wawel Cathedral in Kraków, but his heart rests in the Dresden Cathedral.
