Maria Theresa's coronation in Bratislava on June 25, 1741 was politically charged from the outset — her right to the Habsburg throne was being actively contested by Bavaria, France, Prussia, and Saxony under the pretext that the Pragmatic Sanction barred female succession. The Hungarian Diet's subsequent pledge of loyalty, famously delivered in Latin by nobles drawing their swords, gave her the military backing she needed to survive the War of Austrian Succession. Bratislava served as the Hungarian coronation city for nearly three centuries, and this issue is one of a continuing NBS series commemorating that specific dynastic and civic connection.
