I've been informed more than once that I don't get English/Irish/Scottish humor. No offense if I've left out a major group.
A trait, specific to me, is that I'm lost when it come to geography (a truth and a pun).That's okay, the Welsh don't have a sense of humour.

The royals are actually Stuarts, but through the female line, so lost the name and switched as you say.
Not at all. The Establishment [ great nobles, politicians and merchants of wealth ] wanted a 'Crowned Republic' with a figurehead monarch to placate the common people, whilst the Oligarchy ruled though an elected parliament. c.f. Poland, Venice etc..
So they invited an invader and kicked out the Stuarts in 1688; the Houses of Orange/Oldenburg --- the betraying relatives --- ruled a few years, then they had to find a distant relative base enough to form a fake dynasty on their behalf. around 60 to a 100 people refused until they found someone to agree: his surname was Wettin / Guelph: a first cousin once removed son of Sophia.
A century ago it was worked out Kaiser Wilhelm had more Stuart Blood than Edward VII --- which is cute because Charles I had more Hohenzollern ancestry than Scottish...
