with a POD no earlier than 1660.
Ernest Augustus I King of Great Britain & Hanover ought to do it
you know that for the first 5 months of 1660, the UK was a Republic? (or at lest not a monarchy as such)
Simply make CharlesII publicly catholic like his brother James. No chance the monarchy will be restored and monarchism becomes history.
German Vicky?
It says not earlier, not by, so in fact your original intended post was more relevant.I was just about to post that too until I saw he said "by 1660", probably not going to work there. For that you may want to end the deadlock and indecision endemic to the commonwealth before Cromwell took over. Maybe if you could turn Parliament into a kind of merchant republic on steroids (in terms of power politics not in terms of how merchant republicy they are) where commercial interests and the economy are the primary focus of the government.
Of course this also ignores it was still England and Scotland in 1660 not Britain.
I agree with this, and is a favored POD of mine, if for no other reason than all of the mischief Evil King Ernie could cause.Ernest Augustus I King of Great Britain & Hanover ought to do it
A Republic therefore either has to over throw BOTH Parliment and the Crown (and how likely is it that they are both going to be unpopular at the same time?)
