Most people in the world do not know that
Prince Philip, the most important heir to the British royal family, was not

Greek town of Curfew Island in the European country shortly after the end of
World War I during 1920.
This was a time when war was raging all
over Europe and European countries were busy making agreements to support each
other in the event of an enemy attack.

France with great difficulty.

Parisian school for elementary education. An early age, he moved from Britain
to France before World War II began. He joined the Royal Navy and later became
a member of the British Royal Family, but interestingly, he was not a British
by birth.
Born into a Greek royal family, Prince
Philip's grandfather was a member of the royal family of the European country
of Denmark. Prince Philip's family also
had close ties to royal families in other European countries. Because until two
centuries ago, royal families in many European countries used to have marriages
and relationships with each other.

Danish royal family and the son of a Greek prince, became obsessed with
Elizabeth II at an early age in the British Royal Navy.

other, at which time Prince Phillips had to travel outside of England for
services due to being in the Navy. He also served in the British Alliance in
various countries during World War II.

his marriage to the British, after which Prince Phillips' life changed.

son-in-law of the British royal family. Then within a century he became the
owner of the royal palace and now his sons and grandsons will carry on the
royal family.

within a year of their marriage they had their first son, Prince Charles. He is
now 72 years old and has not yet become king.

was highly regarded in the royal family. He was one of the honorary heads of
800 charities until the last days of his life.

had four children. The eldest is Prince Charles, the second is Princess Anne,
the third is Prince Andrew, and the youngest is Prince Edward, 57.

lasted until his death. Surprisingly, the first marriages of their three
children failed. Yet, their youngest son, Prince Edward, still has only one
marriage.
Prince Phillips' eldest son, Prince
Charles, had his first marriage to Lady Diana, which ended in divorce. His
second son, Prince Andrew's first marriage ended in divorce. his daughter
Prince Anne's first marriage also ended in divorce.
