      Wilhelm was deposed and died in The Netherlands.
      Nicholas and his immediate family were executed. There is some question as to whether his abdication was legal because the second document skipped over Alexei and gave the crown to Nicholas's brother.
      Charles Edward of Hesse-Darmstadt (son of Victoria's second daughter) was deposed. Before that, he lost all of his British titles because he fought for Germany in WW-1.

    How much did George V really know about Edward VIII's relationship with Wallis Simpson?
    George had said that when he was dead, Edward would likely ruin himself within a year. He also hoped that Edward wpuld have no descendants (so that his second son would be King).
