For those unaware, Abdul Karim was a close friend and confidant of Queen Victoria during the final fifteen years of her reign. She adored him and referred to him as "the Munshi" but was basically hated by everybody else, especially the future Edward VII, who had nearly all of their correspondence burned after his mother's death. The Munshi returned to India after Victoria's death where he died in 1909.
Now suppose a few years before Victoria's death, for one reason or another, Edward VII and the Munshi end up striking a friendship and becoming good friends. Maybe the Munshi is a little more respectful or Edward VII a little less racist. So after Victoria's death, the Munshi remains at court and the correspondence is never burned. Does this have any impact on history or does his presence at court become just a mere footnote?
