Years: 1684 - 1827
Maria Theresa's husband is emperor but she rules the Habsburg lands.
However, when her son Joseph becomes Holy Roman Emperor after the death of her husband in 1765, she makes her son coregent.
Following Maria Theresa's death in 1780, Joseph II reigns in his own right until his death in 1790.
The Counter-Reformation's political and religious goals have largely been accomplished by the time Maria Theresa comes to the throne, but maintaining Austria's great-power status urgently requires broad internal reform and restructuring to strengthen the central authority of the monarchy and curtail the power of the nobility.
