To answer your question, yes, Hermine was the German Empress and Queen of Prussia regardless of whatever else she was called. She was married to William who was still German Emperor and King of Prussia in title, although he no longer reigned. The age-old convention is that a wife is entitled to the titles and styles of her husband (unless a marriage is unequal). Hermine qualified to share her husband's titles. Compare [[Queen Anne of Romania]], born Anne of Bourbon, Princess of Parma, who married her husband after his exile. [[User talk:Charles|Charles]] 23:19, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
