		Albany is Goneril’s opposite, gentle and kind to his wife’s cruel and self-serving demeanor.
		But later, Albany’s attack on Goneril’s integrity demonstrates that Albany is a highly moral and humane individual, the antithesis of his wife.
		Early on, Albany hesitates to confront Goneril when he thinks she’s wrong, but he is not the willing participant in evil that Cornwall is. Albany is genuinely shocked when he learns of Gloucester’s blinding, while Cornwall easily succumbs to this depravity.

	Ducal Standards until 1918 (Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, Germany)
		The two last reigning Dukes of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha were a son and a grandson of Queen Victoria — but they were not father and son.
		His nephew Charles Edward, Duke of Albany, born 1884, became the next Duke of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha but being under aged a regent, Ernst von Hohenlohe-Langenburg, was appointed.
		Anyway there was possibly no opportunity for confusion, since the lesser standard of the Duke of Saxe-Meiningen was probably adopted after Duke Charles Edward of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha adopted a new one (a square banner of the Saxon arms with a canton showing his arms as British prince) in 1900 or 1902.
