The Rothschilds (German for The Red Shield Firm) have been in control of the world for a very long time, their tentacles reaching into many aspects of our daily lives.When you think of wealthy families, the name Rothschild is probably one of the first that springs to mind. Whether you call it a dynasty or an empire, the Rothschild legacy is impossible to miss. Now entering its seventh generation, the Rothschild banking dynasty was founded by Mayer Amschel Rothschild, a German Jew who began his career in a Frankfurt banking house and began compiling his fortune during the height of the Napoleonic Wars between 1792 and 1815. Together with his five sons, Mayer established bank offices and branches in London in 1804, Paris in 1811, and Vienna & Naples in the 1820s. Famous for their banking activities, the Rothschild family is also known for their achievements as winemakers, collectors and as significant charitable benefactors. Across two centuries and many generations, the qualities associated with the Rothschild family have remained unchanged: innovation, industriousness and, above all, strength through unity.
