The Sons of King Christian IX of Denmark
2020-08-20に共有
King Christian IX of Denmark is one of the most prolific patriarchs in royal history. His six children inherited or married into the most powerful monarchies of 19th century Europe and their decedents have occupied 9 different European thrones – Denmark of course, but also Norway, Belgium, the United Kingdom, Greece, Spain, Russia, Romania, and Luxembourg. Let’s meet the three distinguished sons of King Christian IX:
King Frederick VIII of Denmark
Vilhelm, King George I of Greece
Prince Valdemar

Honestly the Danish royal house seems much more admirable than the English Victorians we seem to be obsessed over!
-
George I of Greece: the King who discovered his status on the newspaper around his sandwich! Best history I've heard in a long time 😂
-
Imagine sitting down to lunch with a good newspaper in hand, and then randomly finding out you became a king.
-
Valdemar sounds like a really cool dude with his inked wife.
-
I feel like we need a video on Marie of Orleans. You can't just drop that she's a talented artist, rode a bull over a horse, and got tattooed. Lol. She sounds wild and I like it.
-
King George I of Greece's story is very impressive. Found himself becoming king of the foreign land while opening his sandwich for lunch! And, he was even determined to be Greek than the Greeks themselves. That's dedication right there. Plus, the story of the sailor prince of Denmark (Valdermar) and his tattooed wife is hilariously and lovingly adorable. They're definitely made for one another. No wonder some of his descendants really pick up his true love & passion of sea and sailing.

I really feel bad for Olga. She was only 15 when she was taken away to a strange country while she was not ready. And only a year later she baecame a mother. Must have been hard on her. But I guess that happend a lot to girls in that area.
-
Valdemar and Marie are such a great couple, for gods sake she had a tatto for him in the 1800s! Sad she die so young.
-
I wanted this so much. I was so confused when drawing the relationships between the royal families of Europe. Ends up king Christian ix and queen victoria are the father in law and grandma of Europe.
-
I know it’s quite common for notes to be left in lunches, but “Congratulations! You’re the King of Greece!” might top them all.
-
i love that Greece just went " we want a new monarch. We'll take that one." Points at the teenager up north
-
Something about the picture of Alexandra, Dagmar, and Olga dressed alike and standing together just made me smile. It’s so easy to think of people who lived so long ago (and in much higher status) as just stiff, regal, and lifeless. But then they’ll do something like wearing polka dot dresses with their sister in law or posing for a picture with their little child on their back! Thank you, Lindsay, for bringing life back into these figures!
-
last time i was this early, Victoria still was the queen
-
As a member of the danish jewish community, I ask: Can you make a video on the danish royal familys involvement in the rescue of danish jewry in 1943 and it's role in the resistance?
-
Valdemar and Marie sound awesome. I like that they knew what they had in each other and their family and knew it was better than a crown
-
Poor Olga she wasn’t ready to be queen and shouldn’t have been forced too
-
I’m just going to write down a bunch of suggest, if you use one or more of them thank you 1.margaret Beaufort The mother of Henry vii a strong figure in the war of the roses 2. The rank of Jhansi The queen who fought against the British 3. Mary queen of scots Elizabeth the firsts rival 4. Elizabeth I Gloriana 5. Elizabeth of York The white rose with the red
-
It's kinda cool that the only one of them not to become a king, seemed to have the most adventurous life.
-
Could you do something about asia i would love it to happen cause im from the phillipines
-
Half the people mentioned in this video are related to the queen of England and her husband/cousin
