Saturday marks the 104th anniversary of the coronation of Christian X. He was also the only king of Iceland, ruling the country from 1918-44. Despite his reputation as an authoritarian king, Christian won his people’s hearts by resisting the German occupation. He walked the streets without guards and threatened to wear a Star of David if the Danish Jews were required to wear them. He passed away at the age of 76 in 1947. (AJ)
