The history of princesses
There have been many princesses throughout history. They are the daughters of
kings and
queens and lived in many different countries like
England,
China,
France,
Spain and
India. Sometimes princesse
had to marry a prince from other kingdoms to ensure
continuing peace between their two lands. This is what happened to
Marie Antoinette of Austria in 1770 when she married the king of France. Once she was married, she became the new queen.
Nefertiti of Egypt may have been a princess before she was crowned queen of Egypt. She was renowned for her beauty and intelligence and is one of Egypt’s most well known rulers. This is even more impressive because she was
only a teenager when she took the throne.
Durru Shehvar was an Indian princess and the daughter of His Imperial Majesty Sultan Abdul Mejid Efendi of the Ottoman Empire. She fought for
women’s rights, setup a hospital and helped the poor.
Princesses aren’t just historical figures of the past. There are still princesses today like Charlotte of Cambridge, who is fifth in line for the British throne. Encourage your little princess to be creative by enabling her to enjoy coloring. Our coloring pages are a great place to start.
