GEORGE III
1st King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland
(born 1738 - died 1820)
pictured above is a portrait of the King of the United Kingdom, painted by Sir Thomas Lawrence circa 1818-23
-------------------- ~ -------------------- ~ --------------------
GEORGE WILLIAM FREDERICK was born in 1738, at Norfolk House in London, the capital of the Kingdom of Great Britain, during the reign of his paternal grandfather George II, King of Great Britain.
The eldest son of Frederick, Prince of Wales, and Princess Augusta of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg, he was a member of the British line of the HOUSE OF HANOVER, a cadet branch of the House of Welf.
In addition, his paternal grandfather was also the ruler of the Electorate of Brunswick-Lüneburg, informally known as the Electorate of Hanover, as Georg II August, sovereign Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg in Hanover and Prince-Elector of the Holy Roman Empire.
Through this ancestry, he held two hereditary titles from birth. For being a male line grandson of the British Monarch, he was a PRINCE OF GREAT BRITAIN. And as all male members of the House of Welf, he borne the dynastic title of DUKE OF BRUNSWICK-LÜNEBURG.
But as a child who did not hold any title in his own right, from birth, he was styled by the title of his father in Great Britain and was known as PRINCE GEORGE OF WALES.
When his father unexpectedly died in March 1751, he became the heir apparent to the British Crown at just 13 years old. He also succeeded in the British titles of his father DUKE OF EDINBURGH, MARQUESS OF THE ISLE OF ELY, EARL OF ELTHAM, VISCOUNT OF LAUNCESTON, and BARON OF SNOWDON.
By April 1751, he was officially recognized as the heir to the British Crown having been created as the new PRINCE OF WALES and EARL OF CHESTER by the King.
At the age of 21, he succeeded on the death of his grandfather in 1760. In the British Isles as GEORGE III, KING OF GREAT BRITAIN and KING OF IRELAND. And, in the Holy Roman Empire as GEORG III WILHELM FRIEDRICH, sovereign DUKE OF BRUNSWICK-LÜNEBURG in Hanover, PRINCE-ELECTOR OF THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE, and DUKE OF SAXE-LAUENBURG, under Franz I, Holy Roman Emperor.
He married PRINCESS SOPHIE CHARLOTTE OF MECKLENBURG-STRELITZ in 1761. His wife was the only surviving daughter of the late Karl Ludwig Friedrich of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, Prince of Mirow, and the late Princess Elisabeth Albertine of Saxe-Hildburghausen. He was 23 years old, and his wife was 17. With her, he had fifteen children.
Check a list of his children at the end of this post!
Over a decade after he was on the throne, he lost his mother in 1772. At that time, he was 33 years old.
Many significant historical events happened during his life, such as the independence of the Thirteen Colonies in America from the Kingdom of Great Britain in 1776.
Around his fifties, he had his first severe mental breakdown, and by the end of the 1780s, a Regency was first discussed. However, he recovered before it could be installed.
Great Britain joined the Coalition Wars against the French Republic in 1793, and as an aftermath, the French decided to give support to the Irish Rebellion of 1798.
So, the unification between the Kingdom of Great Britain and the Kingdom of Ireland became inevitable. Both British and Irish Parliaments passed the Acts of Union of 1800, which created the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Then, by 1801, at the age of 62, he officially became GEORGE III, first KING OF THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND.
Check my post on a brief HISTORY OF IRELAND until the Acts of Union of 1800!
Between 1801 and 1806, the French Republic and later the French Empire tried to conquer the Electorate of Brunswick-Lüneburg/Hanover and the Duchy of Saxe-Lauenburg.
During the War years, parts of Brunswick-Lüneburg/Hanover and Saxe-Lauenburg were under French control several times. However, by 1806, he ended up losing it all to the Kingdom of Prussia.
Because of the growing concerns over the French Empire, in August 1806, Franz II, Holy Roman Emperor decided to abdicate and dissolve the Holy Roman Empire, in order to prevent the throne from being stolen by Napoléon I, French Emperor.
Following the dissolution, his title of Prince-Elector of the Holy Roman Empire was abolished. At that time, he was 68 years old.
Nevertheless, by the end of 1806 the French were able to restore control over his former territories, and between 1807 and 1810 Emperor Napoléon I slowly annexed them into the newly created Kingdom of Westphalia, a client state of the French Empire ruled by Jérôme, King of Westphalia, the youngest brother of the French Emperor.
As his mental health had deteriorated over the years, when he was 72 years old, a Regency was finally established in 1811. With his eldest son George, Prince of Wales, being declared Regent by the Regency Act known as Care of King During his Illness.
His former territories were liberated from the French Empire and restored to him in 1813. But due to his illness, his youngest son Adolphus, 1st Duke of Cambridge, was designated as Military Governor of Hanover.
Though, it was only with the defeat of Emperor Napoleón I in the War of the Sixth Coalition and the subsequent exile of the deposed Emperor in 1814, that the Congress of Vienna recognized his possessions and created the Kingdom of Hanover.
And, by October 1814, he became GEORG III, first KING OF HANOVER, at the age of 76. But because of his illness, he never became aware of his new status.
Soon afterwards, his representatives negotiated the territories of Saxe-Lauenburg with the Kingdom of Prussia in exchange for the territories of East Frisia.
Also, because of his mental instability, he was incapable of comprehending that in 1817, his family underwent a succession crisis following the death of his only legitimate grandchild, Princess Charlotte of Wales. And, that his wife had died in 1818, leaving him a widower at the age of 80.
After 59 years on the throne, the longest a British Monarch had ever reigned, the first King of the United Kingdom died in 1820 at Windsor Castle, in the English town of Windsor in the United Kingdom. He was 81 years old.

If I’ve left characters out, it was primarily due to not having enough context on their actual personality to be able to distinguish between real character traits and what is simply their “vampire nature,” which often dominates the personalities of many of the ancients.
Overall, I think that vampiric nature generally favors people of a Ravenclaw or Slytherin disposition, and/or generates such traits easily over the centuries, but it’s entirely possible for a Gryffindor or Hufflepuff to thrive as a vampire, we just don’t see them as often, or their defining traits aren’t as obvious when they’re now living as killers to survive—which is a counterintuitive lifestyle for those two houses in particular.
Feel free to discuss! I’ll back up my claims if you want them, but I know I’m not the only one who sorts all my favorite fandoms into Hogwarts houses. It’s just too much fun.
