Queen Victoria was grandmother to the royal houses of Europe.
The three major monarchs before WW1, English, German and Russian were Germanic cousins.
Russia's Tsar was forced to abdicate by revolutionaries [1917] and was murdered by Bolsheviks [1918.]
Germany's Kaiser was forced to abdicate by revolutionaries [1918.]
England's King abandoned his German family name and changed it to Windsor [1917.]
The British monarchy first forsook their family name... now they forsake their family blood.
There is a cryptic verse in the Bible that has been interpreted to mean that the British monarchy will reign until Christ returns. Recent events tell me if that happens, it happens soon.
