## History

### Early History

Andrew was born in the Belgian Suite of Buckingham Palace on 19 February 1960 at 3:30 p.m., the third child and second son of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. He was baptised in the palace's Music Room on 8 April 1960. Andrew was the first child born to a reigning British monarch since Princess Beatrice in 1857. As with his siblings, Charles, Anne, and Edward, Andrew was looked after by a governess, who was responsible for his early education at Buckingham Palace. He was sent to Heatherdown School near Ascot in Berkshire. In September 1973, he entered Gordonstoun, in northern Scotland, which his father and elder brother had also attended. He was nicknamed "the Sniggerer" by his schoolmates at Gordonstoun, because of "his penchant for off-colour jokes, at which he laughed inordinately". While there, he spent six months—from January to June 1977—participating in an exchange programme to Lakefield College School in Canada. He left Gordonstoun in July two years later with A-levels in English, history, and economics.

### Becoming Heir Apparent

Charles, Prince of Wales had married Camila Shand which forced him to give up his rights to the British throne and this resulted in Andrew becoming the new Prince of Wales which was a delight to his mother the Queen who saw Andrew as her favorite child. Andrew had married Diana Spencer, the daughter of the Earl of Spencer who was a very beautiful girl who was in the same age range as Andrew himself. The marriage was perfect in the eyes of both the Spencers and Andrew's family as the two got along fine. Andrew married Diana in the year 1979 when Andrew was 19 and Diana was 18. The marriage was also praised as Diana and the Spencer family were descendants of the Stuarts and this resulted in a union between the descendants of the Stuarts and the Hanovers.

### Losing his title as Heir Apparent

The royal family was hiding in the countryside during World War III as they tried to stay safe, however the loss of the Falklands War had resulted in the royals being ousted from power and being forced out of the country by the Labor Party of the UK. This resulted in a civil war that severely devastated the country and it also resulted in the fracturing of the UK itself into multiple nations. English Nationalists had declared Charles the former Prince of Wales the new King of the Kingdom of England and Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland all gained independence as nations. The royalists who were loyal to the Queen and Andrew tried to regain control of the UK, but they failed due to the newly restored Imperial Germany and its allies backing Charles and the English Nationalists against them.

### Heir Apparent of Normandy

The fracturing of France however had resulted in a period of warlordism in France. The warlord of Normandy decided to declare his clique an independent kingdom for the protestant French people. Queen Elizabeth who lost her throne was declared the Queen of Normandy which resulted in Andrew becoming the heir apparent of the newly founded Kingdom.

### Death of Queen Elizabeth

Queen Elizabeth had ruled Normandy until her death in 2022 at the age of 96 and Andrew after that had been crowned King Alfred II of Normandy. Alfred has the desire to help the royalists oust his brother Charles and the English Nationalists and reunify the Kingdom his mother lost long ago, but Charles has allies and his kingdom does not and any mistake could spell doom for Alfred II and any chance he has in trying to regain the entire UK and Commonwealth under his control.
