In 1840, a slightly different egg enters Queen Victoria's womb and is fertilised. The result: Princess Victoria is born a carrier of the haemophilia gene.

History is identical to OTL right up to 1859 when the first child of the princess is born. At first the baby boy appears perfectly healthy, with no obvious defects (no crippled arm ITTL) but not long after Prince Friedrich Wilhelm of Prussia is diagnosed as a haemophiliac.

How will Wilhelm develop? Will he survive to become Kaiser? If so, what kind of ruler will he be?
