More diaries of our favorite 18th-century Prussian diary-keeper have been unearthed and have been synopsized!

Re: HIstory in Emojis: The Return
Date: 2022-08-20 01:34 pm (UTC)Too true, but the existence of Fritz kind of depends on it. No SD/FW, no Fritz, and of course a very different European history. (No idea whom FW would have married in that case. Not Caroline, she was already with G2 and also she didn't want him, but I guess he'd have ended up with some of the minor (Protestant) princesses from the various German realms, maybe a Brunswick girl. But whoever she would have been, she would not have been obsessed with marrying her kids to their Hannover/GB cousins, and with a different genetic make-up, who knows what FW's successor would have done with that full treasury and army.

I have often been glad that I don't have the kind of time-traveling power that would make me have to choose between "largely bad event" and "really good side effect." This is just another instance of that.

Sorry, MT, all my faves are problematic! (Not that you're without flaw, but, you know...more problematic than you.)
