you do know that the “House of Windsor” is more properly termed the “House of Saxe-Cobourg Gotha” right?

Actually, Queen Elizabeth's husband, Prince Philip, is from the House of Battenberg, which, in its anglicized form, is "Mountbatten." Prince Charles is actually a Mountbatten. The Queen is from Victoria's lineage -- Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.

And the Saxe-Coburgs were not thought very highly of by the bulk of German royalty for associating with those “white trash” Battenbergs.
