Is Britains Prince Philip an Anglican or did he convert from something else to marry Elizabeth?
Prince Phillip was born a Prince of Greece and Denmark so when he was young belonged to the Greek Orthodox Church. After he became engaged to Queen Elizabeth he renounced his title and became a English citizen and a member of the Anglican church. More than likely it wasnt a huge leap for him being that his mother Princess Alice was a great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria (and born in one of her castles as well) she was brought up Protestant as well.
How do you start a royal family?
A number of countries have imported their royal families. Bohemia once did, and in more recent times Sweden, Norway, Bulgaria and Greece did. A nation whose royal family has died out, or who doesn't have a monarchy, but wants to start one, will sound out members of royal families in other countries to see which any of them would make a suitable sovereign. Usually a young prince has been found who agrees to take the job. King George I (1845 - 1913) King of Greece was born Prince Christian Wilhelm Ferdinand Adolf Georg of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, and was usually called Prince Wilhelm. He born in Copenhagen, Denmark, a younger son of Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, whose family was of the Danish nobility with links to the Danish royal family. Having recently overthrown their own king, the Greek people wanted a new king who could unite them and provide closer ties to other powerful European nations. Prince Wilhelm of Denmark was chosen as their candidate, and was crowned king of Greece in 1863. King George married the Archduchess Olga Constantinovna of Russia and they had eight children. One of their children, Prince Andrew of Greece, became the father of Prince Philip of Greece, and Philip later became duke of Edinburgh and married Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom.
