William IV of Britain's daughter Elizabeth survives.

Hmm true enough, though I'm unsure if Georg would want his heir there, perhaps they'd serve in the reserve, but Carl would get headstrong?
Sounds good.
So I'm imagining Cavalry charge, which falls into the Downrange area of an entire artillery regiment. How does that sound? Not just a failure, but an utterly Catastrophic event.
 
Louise Saxe Coburg Gotha and George Olav 1867
1868
Haakon
1870 Margareth
perhaps in this scenario we could have a woman on the Norwegian throne - Haakon could die before inheriting the throne and Margareth could marry an English or German prince between 1894-1896
George Olav and Cecilie of Baden 1863
1864
Carl Magnus
1865 Margareth
1867 Haakon
1868 Oscar
1869 Frederick
1871 Willian
I particularly think it would be more interesting to marry Louise because of her age, but she would not rule out Cecilie, she really was a very nice woman.

I think that would be good, it would definitely ensure that Georg II gets it into his head not to do something so fool hardy and likely strains relations between Norway and Prussia.
 
Hmm aye. I think Georg Olaf with Cecilie makes sense, as Norway would likely want to have a hand in that pot, and she comes from a fertile family. A marriage with a British Princess could come in the second generation
A marriage of Carl to a Brit could have been planned, but the war shakes it up.

Agreed, hence the marriage in the second generation. I imagine Georg I would be quite active in terms of ensuring peace within Norway balancing the pro Swedish faction, and the nationalist factions. His son, would be intent on a government of national unity.
