So as it says on the tin, let's say that in 1819 otl Queen Victoria and her mother both die during the childbirth, and Edward Duke of Kent dies in 1820, leaving Ernst Augustus next in line to the throne behind his brothers Frederick Duke of York and Albany and William Duke of Clarence and St Andrews. Events go as otl, until 1830, at which point Ernst himself alongside his wife die, perhaps they are killed by anarchists or some such, but essentially their son George is left an orphan. Following the death of William IV in 1837, George becomes George V of Britain and Hanover.
What changes? How would George being raised as heir from the age of eleven change things for himself and for Britain, and what could we realistically expect from this George as King? Who might be considered for a wife for him?
