<B>King Christian IX of Denmark Autograph Letter Signed</B></I> "Christian IX". One page, in French, 8.5" x 11.25". Copenhagen Denmark , July 1, 1847, to Monsignor G. Halphen Consul General Paris. When Frederick VII died in 1863, Christian (1818-1906) took the throne as Christian IX. He reigned as King of Denmark from November 1863 to January 1906. He was immediately plunged into a crisis over the possession and status of Schleswig and Holstein, two provinces to Denmark's south when, under pressure, he signed the November Constitution, a treaty that made Schleswig part of Denmark. This resulted in a brief war between Denmark and a Prussian/Austrian alliance in 1864. This Second War of Schleswig's outcome was unfavorable to Denmark and led to the incorporation of Schleswig into Prussia in 1865. Holstein was likewise incorporated into Prussia in 1865, following further battle between Austria and Prussia. Very good condition, with small tear in the upper right corner, tape on verso, and toning.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
