Who married Federico VIII de Dinamarca?

Federico VIII de Dinamarca (Copenhague, 3 de junio de 1843 - Hamburgo, 14 de mayo de 1912) fue rey de Dinamarca entre 1906 y 1912. Fue hijo de Cristián IX de Dinamarca y de su esposa Luisa de Hesse-Kassel y el segundo rey danés de la casa de Glücksburg. Fue hermano de la zarina de Rusia María Fiódorovna, de la reina Alejandra del Reino Unido y de Jorge I rey de los helenos.

Federico fue príncipe heredero durante 43 años y se preparó con cuidado para el gobierno real. Mantuvo una actitud liberal y, a diferencia de su padre, estuvo a favor del cambio de sistema en 1901, cuando se introdujo el pleno parlamentarismo en Dinamarca. Sin embargo, solo estuvo 6 años en el trono antes de morir.

Louise of Sweden (Swedish: Lovisa Josefina Eugenia; 31 October 1851 – 20 March 1926) was Queen of Denmark from 1906 until 1912 as the wife of King Frederick VIII.

Born into the House of Bernadotte, Louise was the only surviving child of King Charles XV of Sweden and Norway and his consort, Louise of the Netherlands. Although her father made several attempts to have her recognized as his heir, she was barred from the succession as at the time only males could ascend the throne of Sweden. In 1869, she married the future King Frederick VIII of Denmark, with whom she had eight children. Louise became queen of Denmark in 1906. As queen, she was mainly known for her many charity projects, an interest that she shared with her spouse. She did not care for ceremonial duties and public events, and lived a discreet life dedicated to her children and her interests in art, literature and charity. After a short tenure as queen, she was widowed in 1912.

Louise was the mother of both King Christian X of Denmark and King Haakon VII of Norway.
