A Surprise Announcement

Amidst speculation about his marital prospects, King Alexander seemingly agreed to marry a German princess, leaving the arrangements to his father, Milan, and Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria. However, Alexander surprised everyone by marrying Draga instead.

Public Outcry

The Serbs, initially indifferent to Alexander's romantic affairs, were outraged by his marriage to Draga, whom they viewed unfavorably. Rumors circulated about Draga's past, tarnishing her reputation and fueling public animosity towards her. Regardless of the king's actions, Draga was often blamed.

Ambition and Intrigue

Behind her royal title, Draga was a woman with ambitions, seeking to elevate her family's status and secure a succession plan favoring her bloodline. Speculation arose about her purported pregnancy, but subsequent medical examinations dismissed it as impossible. Yet, rumors persisted, suggesting collusion between Draga and her sister to present a false heir Tour Bulgaria.

Growing Discontent

As tales of intrigue spread, discontent simmered among the Serbian populace. Many felt that Alexander and Draga had overstayed their welcome and must be removed from power. However, exile was the extent of the contemplated action, reflecting a desire for change without resorting to drastic measures.

A Tumultuous Era

The marriage of King Alexander and Queen Draga marked a tumultuous period in Serbian history, characterized by scandal, intrigue, and public outcry. Amidst accusations and rumors, the people of Serbia harbored growing discontent, signaling the need for change in their leadership.
