Yes, this probably seems and is very much out of his character, but there is an apparent little window according to the infalible Wikipedia. It says that around 1908 Wilhelm faced a depression and from then on he looked older and apathic than before. Apparently, this was mainly because of his inability to understand why his British uncle and his Russian cousin were refusing to party with him (meh, I suppose constant arming, alliance with their enemies and declarations about how mad they were had some relation with that...).
So, though considering it improbable, what could have happened if Wilhelm II had abdicated around that time? How could Wilhelm III deal with politics and upcoming events?
