The Anglo-German Union

In this timeline Queen Victoria's sons die of either from the military or from Haemophilia.

While Victoria was dying Princess Victoria, her heir, went to her bedside and stayed by it most days. She was joined with her son Wilhelm II, the Emperor of Germany.

The public was touched by this act of kindness and love by Wilhelm and he became a slight hero after Queen Victoria's death. Princess Victoria then became Queen Victoria II... But she only survived a few months due to her breast cancer.

Due to the popularity of Wilhelm II the population called for him to be placed as our monarch as well as the German monarch. He made no objections to this, and so on the 5 December he was crowed King of the United Kingdom, Emperor of India etc.

So the British Empire now had a foreign King placed on the throne again. This of course affected who went to war in WW1, who won and of course how the Empire developed.
