	Frederick VIII of Schleswig and Holstein - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Duke Frederick VIII (July 6, 1829 - January 14, 1880) (Friedrich Herzog von Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg in German), was the father-in-law of Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany.
		Frederick became the symbol of the nationalist German independence-movement in Schleswig-Holstein, after his father in exchange for money had renounced his claims as first in line to inherit the twin-duchies of Schleswig and Holstein, following the London protocol of May 8th, 1852, which concluded the First war of Schleswig.
		Frederick and his heirs continued to use the title, which after the next generation went over to the Glucksburg branch, to heirs of the elder brother of Christian IX of Denmark.

	A History of Europe, Chapter 13
		The female link between Christian VIII & IX meant that the link between Denmark and Schleswig-Holstein would be broken on the day of Frederick's death, and all the nationalists had to do was hope that the Danes would accept the divorce with the same good humor that the British had accepted theirs.
		The same preoccupation with legitimacy allowed Frederick William to be persuaded that the king of Denmark was the rightful ruler of Schleswig-Holstein; consequently he pulled out the Prussian troops and stood aside while the Danes reconquered the duchies (1850-52).
		With Frederick's death the main branch of the Oldenburg dynasty became extinct; German law now said that the rightful heir to the duchies was not the new king of Denmark, but a former pretender to the Danish throne, Frederick the Duke of Augustenborg.
