Offer to the Danes Threatens Norwegian Republic Crisis
June 8 Copenhagen reports show Norway’s government viewing King Oscar’s refusal to consider Bernadotte on the throne as pushing toward a republic. Norway would adopt a republic if both Danish royal acceptance and Oscar’s refusal occur, while civil service and generals pledge loyalty. Crown Prince Gustav’s Berlin talks with William and possible imperial intervention are noted as influential. American and English tourists alter routes amid the revolution. Christiana reports the Storting empowered the president to forward the address to King Oscar and notes church prayer book changes reflecting the crisis.
