OOC: So much wrong with this. No way any self-respecting politician in France or Britain propose this idea of putting the man somewhat blamed for starting WW1 in charge of Germany again. Wilhelm III was a big supporter of the Nazi's so he would be out too. At best candidate would be Wilhelm IV but considering his grandfather and father make no sense why they would put him on the throne.
 
They might agree on a constitutional monarchy as the safest and more stable option but no way do they allow Willhelm or the Crown Prince to assume the throne. One of Willhelm's other sons would be installed.

Wouldn't the French want a weaker Germany? So perhaps break off the South or something. The Bavarian monarchy WAS pretty popular.

Power Struggle in Nazi Germany!
Goering, Hess, Goebbels, and Himmler each make statements mourning their leaders death, and each seems to want Nazi Germany to go in a different direction. Only time will tell who will emerge victorious.

Goering was Hitler's designated successor at this time and he wanted no war or anything that would lead to war because he thought Germany would lose. Anything extrapolated from this 'power struggle' premise isn't based in historical fact.

He made that fact known in 39 this is in 37 besides despite what he said I am pretty sure their would still be a power struggle.
 
Anyone mentioned a grandson of Kaiser William as Louis Fernand 1?There were at least two posts dealing with post Hitler government.Onkel Willie -one of board members posted one.Any one else remember the posts?Eurofed is another member who did something like this.My suggestion is to do a search of the board archive.First, try Munich Coup.There are some posts there.Then check Death of hitler for another and post hitler 1938 government.BTW we don't need some damn silly posts about donuts or some other stuff.
