Kaiser Willhelm ll was the cousin of King George V.
Their children would have been Second cousins I think (this includes King George Vl - Elizabeth's father).
Therfore Queen Elizabeth and Kaiser Willhelm's grandchildren must be third cousins?
Unless of course someone married someone who was related in a different way, then it is possible they could be more closely related. You know what these Royals are like for marrying princes and princesses etc!

The German Kaiser Wilhelm II was the cousin of Elisabeth II's Grandad George V. If the Kaiser has any living relatives, they will be some wierd cousins-something-removed to the queen. Ah, all the Monarchys in Europe were all related.......Brisish, ex-german and ex-russian are all pretty closely related. The Russian Kaiser was the German Kaisers cousin too!!

There only ever were three kaisers (not 11 called Wilhelm);
& similarly QE2 is not the eleventh, II would be more appropriate.
The royal families are mostly related to each other by marriage - they do not have one common ancestry (well, not all).
And the first Kaiser (1871) was the last king of prussia (1870) - there were 27 other royal families in todays Germany & German-spaeaking lands that are now poland - the family of Coburg in northern Bayern was one of the smallest & least significant, until they became the maternal ancester of the British royal family.

The late Kaiser Wilhelm ll was nephew to Edward Vll and therefore first cousin to George V. Since Elizabeth is two generations down from there she is first cousin twice removed.
Wilhelm had many children and descendants abound. There are even some living in London, and one maried into the Guinness family.
