The Rothschilds Are Coming- Operation Paul Revere. 2013

The Rothschilds are a pan-European Jewish family, who take their name from the house of their 16th century ancestors, ‘zum roten Schild’ (at the sign of the red shield), in Frankfurt’s Jewish ghetto.

They went on to become one of the wealthiest and most powerful 19th century dynasties; bankers to monarchs and governments, builders of great houses and collectors of the finest art.

Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1744-1812) came from a modest merchant family and established himself as a dealer in antique coins before becoming Court Agent to William, the future Elector of Hesse.

As the business expanded into trading government bonds and textiles, Mayer Amschel drew his five sons into the business, the “five arrows” of the family crest, who went on to establish the family name in London, Paris, Frankfurt, Vienna and Naples.
