Best Answer

The last emperor of the late Middle Ages was Maximilian I of Habsburg (1459-1519) who expanded the Holy Roman Empire and firmly established the Habsburg dynasty as a European power. He successfully defended both his territories in northern Italy and his wife's Burgundian lands against French incursions. Maximilian I applied his father's marriage strategies to good effect, bringing the kingdoms of Aragón and Castile into the Habsburg hegemony when he married his son Philip to Joanna the Mad of Spain.
