Ferdinand III played a crucial role in helping to end the Thirty Years' War and in reestablishing Habsburg sovereignty within his hereditary lands. This title offers a case study in monarchical representation, for the war necessitated that he revise the image he had cultivated at the beginning of his reign, that of a powerful, victorious warrior.
