Seeking information from the experts on how a German/Spanish quasi merger might occur between 1871 & 1898? The whole spectrum; Royal & aristocratic marriages, business connections becoming extensive, Germans milliing about in Madrid, Santiago, San Juan, Manilla & Spaniards practicing their 'Deutch' in Berlin, Essen, and the German territories in Africa.
Would this work, or would the Spanish be resenting a pack of arrogant Germans tossing their money around?
What I am reaching for is a close enough connection the Kaiser chooses war with the US to support his cousins in Spain and investment in the Spanish colonies.
Thanks to any assistance or opinions.
