William IV of Britain's daughter Elizabeth survives.

By scandy king which one are you referring to?

In real life, Iceland was an overseas colony of Denmark. In 1918, a new constitution declared Iceland it's own sovereign monarchy in personal union with Denmark. But what if that declaration was shuffled a little earlier after the Belgian War and the Vasa Rebellion in Sweden?
 
Well, the Free Kingdom of Norway only ended in 1814, in a brief period of independence between Denmark-Norway and Sweden-Norway. Our POD is 1817, so it wouldn't be that much of a stretch to have nationalist feelings emerge around the 1817-1830 period, and rebellions, riots, and further uprisings placing stress upon the union.
This is true, i wobdwer who'd they'd choose as king

To give it to Sweden perhaps?
 
I had the idea a while ago, for Prince Ferdinand of Denmark to have children and the main line of Oldenburg to survive, so that should be possible. Three scandanavian houses? Oldenburg, Mecklenburg-Norsk, and the Bernadotte!

Btw, for clarity, here's Ferdi of the Danes!

Oh nice! I was tempted to either give Frederick viii sons, or have Christian viii have another son. Though going with the three options of them all having kids could be good no?

If we give Ferdi sons, then we may be able to break the Christian-Frederick alternation.
Ferdinand I of Denmark?
 
So when should we have Norway break free?
I'm imagining we have the Norwegians first rise up in 1818, when Carl XIII dies, and the Norwegian Court refuses to recognise Jean Bernadotte as king.T TheSwedish army briefly occupies Christiania, and by 1819, the uprising is ended.
Then I'm imagining frequent uprisings by the Norwegians, such as '22, '27, '31 and further.
Then, in 1835, the Norwegian court declares full independence, and supported by both Britain and Denmark, in the hope that Norway would either choose a British Prince, or restore the Dano-Norwegian union, the Bid for independence succeeds.
There would likely be a war, The Norwegian War of Independence 1835.
Then, in 1840, I'm thinking peace is agreed, and Georg August is elected king of Norway as Georg I.

That could be quite good, and would leave Norway needing some form of protection, and I can already hear the songs being sung by Sabaton about this.
