Edward VII doesn’t Abdicate

Beginning of Reign
King George V died on 20 January 1936, and Edward ascended the throne as King Edward VIII. The next day, accompanied by his Queen, the Princess of Holland, he broke with custom by watching the proclamation of his own accession from a window of St James's Palace.[49] He became the first monarch of the British Empire to fly in an aircraft when he flew from Sandringham to London for his Accession Council.

Edward caused unease in government circles with actions that were interpreted as interference in political matters. His comment during a tour of depressed villages in South Wales that "something must be done"[11] for the unemployed coal miners was seen as an attempt to guide government policy, though it has never been clear what sort of remedy he had in mind. Government ministers were reluctant to send confidential documents and state papers to Fort Belvedere, because it was clear that Edward was paying little attention to them, and it was feared that the Queen and other house guests might read them, improperly or inadvertently revealing government secrets.[50]

Edward's unorthodox approach to his role also extended to the coinage that bore his image. He broke with the tradition that the profile portrait of each successive monarch faced in the direction opposite to that of his or her predecessor. Edward insisted that he face left (as his father had done),[51] to show the parting in his hair.[52] Only a handful of test coins were struck before the abdication, and all are very rare.[53] When George VI succeeded to the throne he also faced left to maintain the tradition by suggesting that, had any further coins been minted featuring Edward's portrait, they would have shown him facing right.

World War 2
Edward makes an alliance with Nazi Germany. When France declared war on Germany in 1939, the UK goes on the Nazi Side, Defeating the French. France is split up between Germany and Britain. They same happened with the capital city, Paris.
