1803

The first American Royal Wedding is held between Prince Augustus and Elizabeth Monroe. The event is coordinated between King Augustus I and James Monroe. Augustus I has concerns about an American royal marrying a commoner, believing the Prince should marry someone of European royalty to strengthen the position. Monroe argues that marrying an American commoner strengthens domestic connection to a young nation. Augustus I reluctantly gives consent for the marriage.
  Crown Prince Louis Ferdinand becomes vocal about relations with France upon the establishment of the new French Empire, garnering support for anti-French war-hawks in Congress front the Federalists and Republicans. After the denial from Congress and his father to enter the new War of the Third Coalition, Prince Louis Ferdinand takes a group of his guard, secretly meets with American Calvary, and enters the Louisiana Territory. During an ambush of a French patrol, Louis Ferdinand is killed. Though the action becomes very controversial, the act of killing a member of the Royal Family pushes the majority to support retaliation. After public pressure increases, John Marshall and Augustus I address Congress, and a declaration of war is passed.
