Let me know what you think:
Many prominent Danish sea officers are Kings/ prins'. Therefore it will be easy to extend the list with numerous kings Christian, Frederik I, II, III....
I therefore don't see any problem with a Danish early King being a colonial admiral. Alternatively all the kings could be removed from the list below.
Since the distintion between colonial and royal forces is non existant in a danish context the division between the two groups is chosen based on their history and their date.
E.g. spectacular officers are colonial while more prestigious/ conservative types are royal.
Later adminrals are generaly royal since the Danish royal force appears later in RaR. So the generals should appear in rather cronological order rather than distinguishing
sharply between Royal versus colonial.
