I thought the British royal family was from Hanover.
Hence my annotation "German roots…except in Bavaria".
Unification of Germany was after the royal family acceded to the British throne, of course. 1871-ish in the wake of the Franco-Prussian War, IIRC?
It was the war which really brought industrial scale slaughter to European battlefields although they would persist with romantic notions of warfare until World War I brought that nonsense to a stop.
