The Kaiser & his wife were 2nd cousins as their grandmothers were sisters & their Moms were 1st cousins...

[@mediocremaiden8883]

Their grandmothers were half-sisters Queen Victoria and Feodora of Some Lil shitty duchy in Germany. All the Royals were related basically. All inbred

Recent research has shown Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands played a big roll in Wilhelm and Augusta's refuge to the Netherlands. They were distant relatives and they knew each other personaly. She called him "onkel Willy". Under the guise of the neutrality of the Netherlands, Wilhelmina was able to protect Wilhelm from being convicted at a foreign court. However, she never received him again at her court, so that she could not be accused of partiality.

[@historyfoxy5278]

Thanks for adding that, very interesting!

[@carolannemckenzie3849]

I always wondered why Wilhelm found refuge in Holland. When WWII broke out in 1939 he must have realised the ultimate futility of war.

[@lindakachur4862]

@@carolannemckenzie3849 I often wonder about the real reason for WWI. Was it entirely due to Kaiser Wilhelm? Were not the other royal siblings involved? I watched a WWI video clip of the confident, proud Kaiser posing shoulder to shoulder with the Tsar Nicholas and they looked rather pleased with each other. Most wars are for pillaging and plunder. Was Wilhelm chosen to forge the war to rewrite the map of Europe and do some whole scale looting at the same time? It cost a great deal to the European Houses in terms of their legivity and I am disposed to believing assassinations, kidnapping and murder of royal families never occurred. I have proof.

[@carolannemckenzie3849]

It was complex, problems in the Balkans, Wilhelm's militarism, etc, etc. Biographies of Wilhelm give great insight into his character and the challenges he faced in childhood. I'm no historian though. Still trying to figure it all out 😁

[@christinemcleod5499]

Thanks for sharing this ! Now I know why the kaiser was allowed to stay. He should have been handed over. What an extraordinary woman

[@midnight_rose2337]

Quite strange that Frederick and Victoria were the only ones to support this marriage, since Wilhelm notoriously despised his parents, especially his mother.

[@historyfoxy5278]

I think it was because Auguste was a grandniece of Queen Victoria and she spent some time at the British court. They probably thought she would be more liberal in her views, but they were mistaken.

[@notnek202]

Most of the British royal family couldn’t stand her plus she was very hateful to her mother in law which made Queen Victoria furious.

[@historyfoxy5278]

She was quite the opposite to the more liberal British royals indeed.

[@sheilastockdale6715]

I really appreciate your video as I knew very little about her. As she was the last empress, do you have any information as to what happened to the German royal jewels? Did they take them into exile, or were they left behind? If you’re able to, it could make an interesting video.

[@historyfoxy5278]

Hey, Thanks for your comment! What I know is that they saved the tiara Auguste is wearing in the thumbnail in WW1, but then it probably was seized by allies in WW2. I will look into it further, thanks for your suggestion! ☺️

Wilhelm I and Princess Vicky allegedly left Junior in the care and feeding of a fascist lunatic tutor and then they couldn't understand why he became obsessed with the jackboot scene. As if they'd bought into the Dickensian fantasy that blood always outed.

[@darrindlc9513]

You need to recheck your facts

[@MsLogjam]

@@darrindlc9513 Well, I did say allegedly so maybe you should recheck your reading and vocabulary skills. So the kid never had a militant tutor? Or his parents didn't leave him in said tutor's care for extended periods? Or that they didn't have a kid named Wilhelm II? Or that Wilhelm I and his wife never existed in the first place? Or are you merely suffering from the misperception that talking like a snotty twelve-year-old makes you sound like a genius?

Everyone who thinks or feels God doesn't care, is indifferent and or mean etc …... Why is the world as it is, evil everywhere… where is God and His faithfulness….. God does judge sin which is evil and if people don't stop sinning they will die for that disobedience,that sin. When God said if you take from that tree you will die He was saying if you disobey, you sin, I will punish that sin because God does punish it, sickness, demons and death. And if you keep sinning I will punish you to the point of death, is that punishment. Sickness is a consequence of sin and it is a judgement God makes upon the people for their sin. All sickness takes its toll on the body and will result in death unless you stop sinning and that brings a reward from God for the righteous decision to stop sinning that brought that illness. Throughout scripture God tells us these things. God does love and there is mercy in His punishment too. He chastises those He loves. His wrath doesn't mean He doesn't love, it doesn't mean there is no mercy, it means He puts His law first and He obeys it first. He punished sin and then punishes sin and so forth and if someone doesn't stop sinning or sins more then that judgment is death just as He said, sin is death. Scripture says we are all responsible for working out our salvation with fear and trembling. Seek scripture, learn who He is and what He said to obey and do it. if you obey Him you live in blessings just like Deuteronomy 28 says and it also says disobedience is curses, that's sickness, demons possibly and again to continue in sin results in death. God told all the details, and paid for us to get out of sin and how we should live and when people don't live righteous then the world looks like it did in the days of Noah, violence, drunkenness and such lovers of self, pleasure and all sin and life apart from God, life in disobedience to God. Why should He bless sin? He punishes it then punishes sin more if someone keeps sinning. Is it tough people die from that choice they make, their sin and lack of seeking God to obey what He said, yes it hurts. How do you think God feels, He loved the world so much He gave His only begotten son and Yeshua died in agony for us to be out of that sin, taking God's wrath upon Himself so how do I think He feels, grieved so grieved but I know from scripture He always obeys what His word says, He never changes and that includes every word He said. Now Yeshua took God's wrath upon Himself for our sin Isaiah 53. We get peace with God and can come before Him to be heard and we get to be cleansed from our iniquities, sin. Just like the lamb sacrifices in the old testament Jesus was that for us a peace offering and forgiveness offering. We get freedom from that sinful past, from that sin and we get our healings because His stripes healed us from the consequences of sin. He gave us a way out. A way to start again out of that wrath. How loving is that God gave us His son who took God's wrath for us out of love. How loving just how loving is our God who made a way for us to be out of that wrath? Wrath we deserved by our sin and continued sin. But God so loved the world He gave us Yeshua. Yeshua gave His life to rise to life for us to give us new life. A new creation to begin again a new life, having been born again. Having received forgiveness for sin and a pardon from God's wrath, that very wrath you talk about. But God gave us a way out of His wrath when Yeshua our lamb paid for our sin. Again how loving is that our way out of God's wrath. Our new life. Our second chance to live rightly before our Holy righteous God our being born again to live right because God planned for us to not all receive His wrath yet His son for everyone, one for everyone and a way out, pardoned and free to live life righteous whole healed delivered, how loving oh so very loving that is. All that is in scripture too. Seek and find, learn who He is and obey and see more of it. Mark 4:24 the more you obey God the more He reveals to you, it means that. Matthew 6:33 live it daily and understand who He is and just how loving He always is and honestly how loved you are will be seen felt and KNOWN too. 💕 May you come to understand Him all your days seeking and finding and growing in the knowledge of God in Yeshua's mighty name 🙏 💕
