in 1862 Greece had a referendum on who would be it's new King, His Royal Highness The Prince Alfred, the Second son of Queen Victoria won with 227,616 more votes than the next runner up, the Great Powers had agreed however that no member of the British, French, or Russian houses could take the Greek throne, so once Alfred was out, and a number of others were cut out it left Prince William of Denmark who had won only 6 votes and he became King George I of Greece, while George was generally a good king the Greek royal house has been a mess ever since, any ways what if the great houses agreed to Alfred (if he gave up all rights to Britain)? what would the house of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha in Greece look like?
