Empire</a> and of the Austrian <a href="/wiki/Habsburg_dynasty" class="mw-redirect" title="Habsburg dynasty">Habsburg dynasty</a> during the 17th and 18th centuries. Renowned as one of the greatest military commanders of his era, Prince Eugene also rose to the highest offices of state at the Imperial court in <a href="/wiki/Vienna" title="Vienna">Vienna</a> spending six decades in the service of three emperors. </p><p>Born in <a href="/wiki/Paris" title="Paris">Paris</a>, to the son of a French count and a niece of <a href="/wiki/Cardinal_Mazarin" title="Cardinal Mazarin">Cardinal Mazarin</a>, Eugene was raised at the court of King <a href="/wiki/Louis_XIV" title="Louis XIV">Louis XIV</a>. Initially destined for the priesthood as the youngest son of a noble family, he chose to pursue a military career at 19. Due to his poor physique and possibly a scandal involving his mother, Louis XIV denied him a commission in the <a href="/wiki/French_Royal_Army" title="French Royal Army">French Royal Army</a> and forbade him from enlisting elsewhere. Embittered, Eugene fled France and entered the service of <a href="/wiki/Holy_Roman_Empire" title="Holy Roman Empire">Holy Roman Empire</a>'s Emperor <a href="/wiki/Leopold_I,_Holy_Roman_Emperor" title="Leopold I, Holy Roman Emperor">Leopold I</a>, cousin and rival of Louis XIV, where his elder brother, Louis of Savoy, was already serving. </p><p>At 20, Prince Eugene of Savoy distinguished himself during the <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_Empire" title="Ottoman Empire">Ottomans</a> <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Vienna" title="Battle of Vienna">Siege of Vienna</a> in 1683. Commanding troops at <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Buda_(1686)" title="Siege of Buda (1686)">Budapest (1686)</a> and <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Belgrade_(1688)" title="Siege of Belgrade (1688)">Belgrade (1688)</a>, he became a field marshal by age 25. In the <a href="/wiki/Nine_Years%27_War" title="Nine Years' War">Nine Years' War</a>, he fought alongside his distant cousin, the <a href="/wiki/Victor_Amadeus_II" title="Victor Amadeus II">Duke of Savoy</a>. As commander-in-chief in Hungary, Eugene's decisive victory at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Zenta" title="Battle of Zenta">Battle of Zenta</a> (1697) ended the Ottoman threat for nearly 20 years. During the <a href="/wiki/War_of_the_Spanish_Succession" title="War of the Spanish Succession">War of the Spanish Succession</a> (1701–1714), he served Emperor Leopold I, achieving victories in Italy and forming a crucial partnership with the <a href="/wiki/John_Churchill,_1st_Duke_of_Marlborough" title="John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough">Duke of Marlborough</a>, securing wins at <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Blenheim" title="Battle of Blenheim">Blenheim (1704)</a>, <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Oudenarde" title="Battle of Oudenarde">Oudenaarde (1708)</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Malplaquet" title="Battle of Malplaquet">Malplaquet (1709)</a>. His success continued in Italy, notably at <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Turin" title="Siege of Turin">Turin (1706)</a>. Renewed Austro-Turkish conflicts saw Eugene triumph at <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Petrovaradin" title="Battle of Petrovaradin">Petrovaradin (1716)</a> and <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Belgrade_(1717)" title="Siege of Belgrade (1717)">Belgrade (1717)</a>, solidifying his legacy as one of Europe's greatest military commanders and securing peace in 1718. </p><p>Throughout the late 1720s, Eugene's diplomatic skills secured powerful allies for the Emperor in dynastic struggles with the <a href="/wiki/House_of_Bourbon" title="House of Bourbon">Bourbon powers</a>. Physically and mentally fragile in his later years, Eugene saw less success as commander-in-chief during the <a href="/wiki/War_of_the_Polish_Succession" title="War of the Polish Succession">War of the Polish Succession</a> (1733–1735). Despite his opposition to the conflict, he loyally led a defensive campaign, preventing enemy invasion of Bavaria. During his peaceful years, Eugene accumulated a vast collection of art and literature and corresponded with contemporary artists, scientists, and philosophers. His architectural legacy includes Baroque palaces like the <a href="/wiki/Belvedere,_Vienna" title="Belvedere, Vienna">Belvedere</a> in Vienna.

On the whole, his men responded because he was willing to push himself as hard as them. His position as President of the Imperial War Council proved less successful. Following the long period of peace after the Austro-Turkish War, the idea of creating a separate field army or providing garrison troops with effective training for them to be turned into such an army quickly was never considered by Eugene. By the time of the War of the Polish Succession, therefore, the Austrians were outclassed by a better prepared French force. For this Eugene was largely to blame—in his view (unlike the drilling and manoeuvres carried out by the Prussians which to Eugene seemed irrelevant to real warfare) the time to create actual fighting men was when war came.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEMcKayBakervon_Savoyen1977228_165-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMcKayBakervon_Savoyen1977228-165"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>165<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Although Frederick II of Prussia had been struck by the muddle of the Austrian army and its poor organisation during the Polish Succession war, he later amended his initial harsh judgements.

Yet the contrast with his co-commander of the Spanish Succession war was stark.
