A list is included showing our relationship with the royal family according to the lineage from Nils Kettilsson Vasa. The relationship with the spouses is also shown although these are from different ancestral lineages. Text is included for those which are highlighted in the list.

  • Christian 9. – Danmarks ”Europas Svigerfar” Og Hans Efterslægt I De Europæiske Konge- Og Fyrstehuse I Nationalismens Tidsalder Af Mads Valdemar Egsgaard Hauge
    De Danske Kongers Kronologiske Samling Mads Valdemar Egsgaard Hauge Christian 9. – Danmarks ”Europas svigerfar” og hans efterslægt i de europæiske konge- og fyrstehuse i nationalismens tidsalder af Mads Valdemar Egsgaard Hauge Christian IX – “Europe’s father-in-law” of Denmark and his descendants in the European royal and princely houses in the era of nationalism Side 1 af 99 De Danske Kongers Kronologiske Samling Mads Valdemar Egsgaard Hauge Abstract Denne artikel omhandler Christian 9., ”Europas svigerfar”, og hans efterkommere i de europæiske konge- og fyrstehuse. Denne historie er blevet fortalt mange gange før. Denne artikel fokuserer på, hvorledes Christian 9.s efterslægt i Europa søgte at manøvrere i overgangen fra et fyrstestaternes Europa til et nationalstaternes Europa i 1800- og 1900-tallet, en udvikling, der igangsattes af nationalismen som politisk bevægelse i det 19. århundrede. Christian 9.s multinationale efterslægt i de europæiske konge- og fyrstehuse måtte indstille sig på at leve inden for rammerne af nationalt definerede statsdannelser. Forudsætningerne for de dynastiske forbindelser, som Christian 9.s børn var i stand til at indgå med repræsentanter for nogle af de mest fremtrædende monarkier i Europa, lå bl.a. i et faldende udbud af fyrstelige, Christian 9. og Dronning Louises fælles kosmopolitiske slægt i Hessen-Kassel og stormagternes anerkendelse af Prins Christian (9.) som dansk tronfølger i 1852. Christian 9.s to ældste døtre og yngste søn knyttede via giftermål forbindelse med stormagterne Storbritannien, Rusland og Frankrig, ligesom Frederik 8.s giftermål med en svensk-norsk prinsesse inddæmmede det skandinaviske alternativ til den glücksborgske tronfølge i Danmark og cementerede det dansk-tyske glücksborgske dynasti i den danske nationalstat efter 1864.

  • Christian IX, Rey De Dinamarca (1818-1906); Contrajo Matrimonio
    Estudio genealógico: La descendencia del Rey Christian IX de Dinamarca, “El Suegro de Europa” por Darío Silva D’Andrea © Coronasreales.com Al fallecer el rey Christian VIII de Dinamarca, en 1848, subió al trono Federico VII (1808-1863), el último monarca absolutista que tuvo el país nórdico. Hijo de Christian VIII y de la Duquesa Charlotte Friederike de Mecklemburgo, fue el último rey de la Dinastía Oldenborg, ya que no tuvo hijos que pudiesen heredar la corona. Se trataba de un hombre bastante popular entre sus súbditos, aunque su vida privada había escandalizado a la familia real y a los cortesanos desde hacía mucho tiempo. En 1828 contrajo matrimonio con su prima, la princesa Vilhelmine Marie de Dinamarca, hija del rey Federico VI. No tuvieron hijos y se divorciaron en 1837. Tras la separación oficial, Guillermina María se casó con otro primo, el duque Carlos de Glücksburg, mientras que Federico, todavía príncipe heredero, contrajo segundas nupcias con la princesa Caroline Charlotte Mariane de Mecklemburg-Strelitz, de la que se divorció en 1846 sin tener descendencia. El tercer matrimonio de Federico VII, en 1850, fue morganático, con Louise Christine Rasmussen, nombrada Condesa Danner. En 1852, en vista de que el rey Federico VII no tendría descendencia legítima, se firmó el Tratado de Londres, en virtud del cual el Duque Christian de Schleswig-Holstein-Sondenburg-Glucksburg (1818–1906), descendiente del Rey Christian III, fue nombrado legítimo heredero de la corona danesa. De hecho, su esposa, la Princesa Louise de Hesse-Kassel (1817-1898) tenía más derechos que él, por ser sobrina carnal del rey Federico VII, pero la princesa renunció a sus derechos hereditarios.
