post-Tudor Anglo-Danish Union

By post-Tudor you mean after 1601?
Presumably you could have a child of Anne and....her Danish husband whose name escapes me... survive and wipe out the rest of the Danish royal family in a plague, so that this child is theoretically heir to both Britain and Denmark?

George, I think.
For that matter, James I & VI's wife was a Danish princess, so a 'personal union' could theoretically have occurred (due to some disaster striking Denmark) a generation or two earlier than Anne's time. Charles ["II", by English reckoning] becoming King of Denmark while Britain was still under Cromwell's control would have been an interesting twist...
Indeed. I just wanted to forestall all the Elizabeth marries the Crown Prince ideas
Yep George.
I had thought about that as a possibility (I think I may even have mentioned it as an aside to one of the alt-stuart threads)
Indeed it would.
Though we'd have to butterfly Princess Elisabeth of Denmark marriage to the Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel as she's dynastically higher than Anne of Denmark
Perhaps we can do it by having having Elisabeth & Henry inherit, minimise the impact on GB, have the 2nd Prince in line marry a Mary or Anne then the Crown Prince dies and voila?
Not quite
