Victoria's mother was a member of that house (Saxe-Coburg) and married her first cousin, Albert who was full blooded.

1. Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha was German. Queen Victoria married him when they were both quite young. They had 9 children.

2. Queen Victoria's mother Princess Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld was German too and married Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, 4th in line for the throne. Theyvhad only one child, Princess Victims who became Queen Victoria. Prince Edward died earlier than expected.

So Queen Victoria was half German and her Children were 75% German, which doesn't bother me.
The Royal houses of Europe regularly intermarried and have been doing that for centuries. Nothing new there.

I have no apologies at suggesting that the Windsors (Saxe-Coburgs) need to go.

You can say whatever you want, but your opinions on the British Monarchy don't really count.

William is more British than German, and his heir George even more so. William’s mother Diana was English and his father is one quarter Scottish by virtue of his maternal grandmother. William would be 50% English, 12.5% Scottish and the rest German. George is 75% English (English mother), 6.25% Scottish and the rest German.

My opinions of the British monarchy count as much as my opinions on the American oligarchy

...Princess Victims...

Your auto-correct just invented a wonderful new name for Meghan Markle. :)

And your opinions on their opinions don’t really count.
