@lightyagami3492 It didn’t really slowly rot away. It was ended because of Napoleon’s humiliation of the Empire and Austria. Not as a result of the divided nature of the Empire. On top of that they replaced it with a slightly less confusing but equally divided confederation anyway

That is comical, the larp is real

This has happened many times in recent history. The Dutch royal family applied the same principle. And they did it a century ago

@Edmonton-of2ec Yeah it is good the Hohenzollerns were forced to drop their case for “their” possessions in East Germany

@EuIenspiegel No lmao, maybe the first couple generations were German. But British royals today aren’t German in any way
3
@EuIenspiegel And they don’t think of themselves as German
3
@EuIenspiegel You seriously think Charles thinks of himself as a German? They probably don’t even think of themselves as Saxe Coburg. Given that that isn’t their name and it has little to fo with them

@EuIenspiegel Sure and I doubt he thinks he is Vlach
3
@EuIenspiegel That a random Vlach (Vlad) doesn’t make Charles Romanian. Just as a German ancestor doesn’t make him German

@EuIenspiegel Heredity succession doesn’t even necessarily always take the name of the house of the father anymore. Like the UK, where it is still Winsdor. The more salient point however is that being a member of a “German” house doesn’t make the person German. Like his mother who English and his father who identified himself as Danish (though born in Greece).

@EuIenspiegel And? That doesn’t make Elizabeth German, because she wasn’t lmao

@Edmonton-of2ec No the law abolished titles, they just let them keep the larp
2
@Edmonton-of2ec Sure it is their last name, but it is still larp. Larping as nobles they aren’t anymore. Because it isn’t just a last name they held for 100s of years. Their last name was never Prinz von Preussen lmao

@AviationAddict69 Yeah sure?

@pedanticradiator Yes that is what I said

@EuIenspiegel But no one cares about the houses and where some ancestor 1000 years ago who gave it the name came from. That doesn’t make you German, or not And you can make the argument that people like Victoria were culturally German. Hell King George I actually was German. But Queen Elizabeth and King Charles are definitely not German, regardless of their paternal ancestor’s name

@brittakriep2938 The chief-larping branch are still the descendants of the main Hohenzollern family, you know the descendants of the Kaiser, the Imperial family. And they definitely had palaces and castles in former East Germany They are also the ones who own Hohenzollern Castle in Swabia, and their current head, I forget the clown’s name, sued Germany over the unlawful dispossession of castles and art in East Germany
