With historical footage and personal interviews, The Royal House of Windsor tells the story of the British royal family’s last 100 years of power. We’re as intrigued by this docuseries as Queen Elizabeth is by cake.

Another day, another fascinating docuseries centered on the royal family. Although it’s similar to The Royal House of Windsor, this single-season show focuses more intently on the cultural phenomenon (i.e., the Middleton effect) side of the family.

Don’t let the name fool you. This comedic series is an irreverent dramatization of the royal family’s daily life and the result is bloody hysterical.

Murder! Deceit! Game of Thrones’s own Robb Stark (actor Richard Madden) stars in this drama set in 15th-century Florence.

The Medici family produced not one but two queen regents of France and ultimately obtained the hereditary titles of Duke of Florence and Grand Duchy of Tuscany.

Historian Dan Jones takes it way, way back to dive into the history of some of the British royal family’s grandest British castles. It’s basically like House Hunters, but royal.

Historian Lucy Worsley explores the Romanov dynasty of Russia, their three-century reign and the missteps that led to their demise. And nope, it doesn’t solve the whole Anastasia mystery. Womp, womp.
