House of the Second Wilhelm (outdated)
- This article presents a former version of the subject, which was later retconned. This background is now outdated.
The Empire is currently ruled by a direct descendant of Wilhelm II[1], Prince of Altdorf, who replaced the incompetent and corrupt Dieter IV.
- The members of the Imperial family are members of the House of the Second Wilhelm.
- Hail to the House of the Second Wilhelm is the name of the Imperial national anthem[2]
Notes
- The House of the Second Wilhelm is mentioned in the novels[3][2][4]. These novels were written more or less at the same time as Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (1st Edition), which describes how Wilhelm II replaced Dieter IV[1]. A minor change turned him into Wilhelm III.
- The formal name of the current imperial house is unknown.
