Royal Cousins At War - 2014 - 8/10

Excellent documentary of the rivalries, jealousies, and petty bickering between cousins George, Nicholas, and Wilhelm.
The future king, czar, and kaiser. Actions and reactions that would gather into World War I.
Much stems from childhood, from dismissive fathers, to a pair of Danish mothers who nursed a grudge.
Numerous what-ifs are here, such as what if ministers had allowed the alliance between Germany and Russia?
The Great War is barely touched upon, there are other docs for that.
This excels in highlighting the key royals who might have been able to avert the bloody conflict.
