Germans are good at efficiency and wars, so the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha family seems a good choice.
What I object to is the accumulation of ridiculous unearned wealth and wielding power over swathes of people purely as a product of birth. Lots of the grand buildings were built on the cruel exploitation of people here and abroad.
During the Victorian era the hypocrisy was blatant eg. Chimneys built for children to crawl through, built on the outside so they could be dismantled to retrieve dead kids, without damaging the structure. I'll stop ranting now.
