(George) The name of the King of England. [1] (I) Reigned 1714-27 . Born into the German House of Hanover. Ascended to the throne after the death of Queen Anne under the Act of Succession of 1701.

( 1660-1727 ) [2] (II) Reigned 1727-60 . Son of George I. During his reign, he started a war with Spain in the American colonies, intervened in the War of the Austrian Succession, and fought in the Seven Years' War.

A typical constitutional monarch, he established the status of the royal family. During World War I , he renamed the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, which succeeded the House of Hanover, to the House of Windsor. ( 1865-1936 ) [6] (VI) Reigned 1936-52 . Second son of George V.
