Grenville became Prime Minister, and his "Ministry of All the Talents" included Fox. [80] The King may have had a brief episode of disease in 1765, but a longer episode began in the summer of 1788. [121] George's collection of mathematical and scientific instruments is now owned by King's College London but housed in the Science Museum, London, to which it has been on long-term loan since 1927. Despite signs of a recovery in May 1811, by the end of the year George had become permanently insane and lived in seclusion at Windsor Castle until his death.[114]. George III (George William Frederick; 4 June 1738[c] – 29 January 1820) was King of Great Britain and Ireland from 25 October 1760 until the union of the two kingdoms on 1 January 1801, after which he was King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland until his death in 1820. [84] In February 1789, the Regency Bill, authorising the Prince of Wales to act as regent, was introduced and passed in the House of Commons, but before the House of Lords could pass the bill, George III recovered. George III was personally blamed for this instability. Politically, Bute encouraged the most disastrous of Georgeâs delusions. (1984). In truth, however, the king was not guilty of causing chaos by intrigue. "[8] Historian Romney Sedgwick argued that these lines appear "to be the source of the only historical phrase with which he is associated". Butterfield rejected the arguments of his Victorian predecessors with withering disdain: "Erskine May must be a good example of the way in which an historian may fall into error through an excess of brilliance. The colonies declared their independence in July 1776, listing twenty-seven grievances against the British king and legislature while asking the support of the populace. Instead, he worked toward abolition in an individual capacity. They became: Quarterly, I and IV England; II Scotland; III Ireland; overall an escutcheon of Hanover surmounted by an electoral bonnet.

We report the analysis of hair obtained from George III. "The Reign of George III in Recent Historiography". [57] Later historians defend George by saying in the context of the times no king would willingly surrender such a large territory,[8][58] and his conduct was far less ruthless than contemporary monarchs in Europe. "[112] He accepted the need for the Regency Act 1811,[113] and the Prince of Wales acted as Regent for the remainder of George III's life. Further wars against revolutionary and Napoleonic France from 1793 concluded in the defeat of Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. The attempt to make the American colonists meet their own administrative costs only aroused them to resistance. 301–302; Watson, p. 323, Ayling, p. 414; Brooke, p. 374; Hibbert, p. 315, Letter of 30 November 1803, quoted in Wheeler and Broadley, p. xiii, Ayling, pp. The two former ministers were each dangerous as a focal point for criticism of the new government under the touchy captaincy of Bute. Shortly afterwards, another of George's brothers, Prince William Henry, Duke of Gloucester and Edinburgh, revealed he had been secretly married to Maria, Countess Waldegrave, the illegitimate daughter of Sir Edward Walpole. George III might âglory in the name of Briton,â but his attempts to speak out for his country were ill-received. [34] John Wilkes, a member of parliament, published The North Briton, which was both inflammatory and defamatory in its condemnation of Bute and the government. [55] In the words of the British historian George Otto Trevelyan, the King was determined "never to acknowledge the independence of the Americans, and to punish their contumacy by the indefinite prolongation of a war which promised to be eternal. Omissions? George seemed unperturbed by the incident, so much so that he fell asleep in the interval.[94]. [124] The grievances in the United States Declaration of Independence were presented as "repeated injuries and usurpations" that he had committed to establish an "absolute Tyranny" over the colonies. The gilded equestrian statue of George III in New York was pulled down. Family letters show that he could read and write in both English and German, as well as comment on political events of the time, by the age of eight. [26] Claims that he used the income to reward supporters with bribes and gifts[27] are disputed by historians who say such claims "rest on nothing but falsehoods put out by disgruntled opposition". "[22] He inserted this phrase into the speech, written by Lord Hardwicke, to demonstrate his desire to distance himself from his German forebears, who were perceived as caring more for Hanover than for Britain. [f] The central issue for the colonists was not the amount of taxes but whether Parliament could levy a tax without American approval, for there were no American seats in Parliament. [41] After a brief illness, which may have presaged his illnesses to come, George settled on Lord Rockingham to form a ministry, and dismissed Grenville. By 1770, however, George III had learned a good deal. He was re-elected and expelled twice more, before the House of Commons resolved that his candidature was invalid and declared the runner-up as the victor. As he was born two months prematurely and thought unlikely to survive, he was baptised the same day by Thomas Secker, who was both Rector of St James's and Bishop of Oxford. To boost recruitment, the ministry proposed a measure in February 1807 whereby Roman Catholics would be allowed to serve in all ranks of the Armed Forces. George III hoped that "the tongue of malice may not paint my intentions in those colours she admires, nor the sycophant extoll me beyond what I deserve",[122] but in the popular mind George III has been both demonised and praised. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people." [78][79] A study of samples of the King's hair published in 2005 revealed high levels of arsenic, a possible trigger for the disease. 106–111, Ayling, pp. [25] George was also perceived as favouring Tory ministers, which led to his denunciation by the Whigs as an autocrat. [96] In 1800, the British and Irish Parliaments passed an Act of Union that took effect on 1 January 1801 and united Great Britain and Ireland into a single state, known as the "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland". The bill was rejected by the Lords; three days later, the Portland ministry was dismissed, and William Pitt the Younger was appointed Prime Minister, with Temple as his Secretary of State. Throughout Pitt's ministry, George supported many of Pitt's political aims and created new peers at an unprecedented rate to increase the number of Pitt's supporters in the House of Lords. Only Queens Victoria and Elizabeth II lived and reigned longer. Liverpool oversaw British victory in the Napoleonic Wars. He is loosely based on the historical King George III. Pitt was allowed to resign (October 1761) over the question of war against Spain. [90], After George's recovery, his popularity, and that of Pitt, continued to increase at the expense of Fox and the Prince of Wales. The United States and France were soon joined by Spain and the Dutch Republic, while Britain had no major allies of its own. [6] He was the first British monarch to study science systematically. On 8 September 1761 in the Chapel Royal, St James's Palace, the King married Princess Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, whom he met on their wedding day. Temple's departure destabilised the government, and three months later the government lost its majority and Parliament was dissolved; the subsequent election gave Pitt a firm mandate. [103] The Times said, "The enthusiasm of the multitude was beyond all expression. He had a mental illness, characterised by acute mania, which was possibly a symptom of the genetic disease porphyria,[77] although this has been questioned. 329–335; Brooke, pp. 122–133; Hibbert, pp. Who was the wife of Henry II?

The Stamp Act (1765) passed by Grenville was repealed by Lord Rockingham in 1766. [87] The King was conciliatory towards Fox, after being forced to capitulate over his appointment. His favourite son, Frederick, Duke of York, was with him. He died later in the same year. The popular musical Hamilton, for instance, portrays the King as a vain figure. The kingâs first responsibility was to hold coalitions of great peers together. While both agreed that it would be most reasonable for George III's eldest son George, Prince of Wales, to act as regent, to Pitt's consternation Fox suggested that it was the Prince of Wales's absolute right to act on his ill father's behalf with full powers. He was still as obstinate as ever and still felt an intense duty to guide the country, but now he reckoned with political reality. As king, in 1761, he asked Bute for a review of all eligible German Protestant princesses âto save a great deal of trouble,â as âmarriage must sooner or later come to pass.â He chose Charlotte Sophia of Mecklenburg-Strelitz and married her on September 8, 1761. The kingâs failure lay in his tactlessness and inexperience, and it was not his fault that no one group was strong enough to control the Commons. [23], Although his accession was at first welcomed by politicians of all parties,[e] the first years of his reign were marked by political instability, largely generated as a result of disagreements over the Seven Years' War.
