A soldier by profession, from 1764 to 1803 he was Prince-Bishop of Osnabrück in the Holy Roman Empire. From the death of his father in 1820 until his own death in 1827, he was the heir presumptive to his elder brother, George IV, in both the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and the Kingdom of Hanover.

It is really quite amazing whether you realize it or not how important a British king George lll was. The United States of America might not exist today if it was not for him. The American Revolutionary War was fought to escape from his rule. He was the grandfather of Queen Victoria who ruled at the height of the British Empire.

[@PenfoldEffjay]

Minor error correction: at 4:08 Lindsay says that Maria Fitzherbert was at George IV and Caroline of Brunswick's engagement dinner. It was actually Frances Villiers, Lady Jersey. George had left Maria for her earlier that year and Frances strongly encouraged him to marry Caroline for the money. He then appointed Frances as Caroline's Lady of the Bedchamber (a very high ranking position), sent her to meet Caroline from the boat and flirted with Frances throughout the dinner. If I were Caroline I'd have done more than just making a few snide remarks!

[@briansmith9439]

Fitz means 'son of' hence Fitz-Clarence is the son of Clarence; it was in common use for centuries, not associated with royals or nobility, though kings would bestow FitzRoy - son of the King/Roi - on their illegitimate sons.

I believe Maria Fitzherbert’s name would have been pronounced as Ma-rye-a, like Mariah Carey, not Ma-ree-a. That was the standard pronunciation in England at the time. Ma-ree-a was the pronunciation in some other European countries and later took over in England. Something to remember when you’re reading Jane Austen or any other author of that era. 😉 I think the same also applies to the name Sophia, so it would have been pronounced So-fire rather than So-fee-a in England. But I could be wrong about that one. Anyway, good video. Looking forward to the rest of the series covering the lesser known children. I do like the Georgian and Regency eras.

[@kate_cooper]

“Regency” as an era indicator name is pretty much used for the 1800s-1830s. It’s a name taken from George IV being the Prince Regent rather than referring to the exact years when he was. Mostly because the fashions and decor of that era were very different from the ones of the reigns of Georges I, II, and III, which can conveniently be called “Georgian”. A “regent” is basically anybody who fills in for the monarch. If the monarch comes to the throne as a child, an adult regent (usually either the mother or uncle of the monarch) is appointed to rule until the monarch comes of age. Some kings also left temporary regents (often their wives) to rule while they were overseas.

I am probably asking a question that you wouldn't even want to attempt to answer but here goes.... could you tell us what basically happened to all the illegtitmate kids from the princes? I'm sure you couldn't run down all of them, but I wonder if the princes educate their kids? did they help set them up in business or did they become members of the aristocracy? I know that King Charles II made some of his kids dukes ... although I know only 3 sons were king, but I just wandered if the princes were a part of these kids' lives, did they support them? wonder if their descendants today are learned, well off, or just scraping by, and maybe all of the above.... would be so sad to think that the kids were given little to no thought once the princes left their mother's bed....

George Augusts Frederick became regent at age 49, during George III’s second incapacitation by mental illness. Regency was discussed by parliament during George III’s first mental breakdown in 1788, but the king recovered before Parliament acted. The first regency crisis is brilliantly depicted in the film “The Madness of King George.” Both regency crisis are depicted in the eight episode 1979 BBC special “The Prince Regent” which is available on KZbin. Other accurate facts can be found on Wikipedia. Why would you make a video about a subject you don’t know much about?
