So I found myself wondering in the last days, what would happen if after Friedrich the third also Wilhelm the second dies in the same year?
My take one this goes as follows:
- Heinrich, the younger brother of Wilhelm, is given the crown after a change in the constitution. This happens because Bismarck fears the instability Germany now faces after the death of so many rulers.
- Heinrich doesn't want to take the crown first, he doesn't feel prepared and also doesn't want to steal his nephew of his birthright. But in the end, he excepts the crown under protest but for Germany.
- The change in the constitution separates the title of Kaiser from the Prussian King.
What would be the reaction's in Germany and in the World?
