At the outbreak of World War One in 1914, the three greatest powers in Europe were Britain, Russia, and Germany. Their sovereigns were all first cousins. George V of England, Nicholas II of Russia, and Wilhelm II of Germany all shared a grandmother in Queen Victoria.

At the outbreak of war, the German Kaiser sarcastically quipped, “if our grandmother Queen Victoria were alive, she never would have allowed it.”

Late and the Queen Elizabeth are related through their great-great-grandmother Queen Victoria too. https://pic8.co/sh/6KDt3b.jpeg
