I've seen scenarios producing an Anglo-Dutch union relying primarily on two scenarios: either Queen Elizabeth of England becoming the Dutch monarch, or a union due to a child produced from the marriage of William and Mary. Is there any other way to produce an Anglo-Dutch Empire without having to rely on either of these scenarios? The goal is to get an Anglo-Dutch union after the 1580s (when Elizabeth received her offers) but before 1689 (when William III took the throne).
