Wilhelm was deposed and died in The Netherlands. Nicholas and his immediate family were executed. There is some question as to whether his abdication was legal because the second document skipped over Alexei and gave the crown to Nicholas's brother. Charles Edward of Hesse-Darmstadt (son of Victoria's second daughter) was deposed. Before that, he lost all of his British titles because he fought for Germany in WW-1.
King George V, is defo my favourite monarch,. if I could revive anyone famous, I'd defo revive HM! George Fredrick Ernest Albert - June 3 1865 - January 20 1936
How much did George V really know about Edward VIII's relationship with Wallis Simpson? George had said that when he was dead, Edward would likely ruin himself within a year. He also hoped that Edward would have no descendants (so that his second son would be King).
You have no idea how spoiled and bad Edward was he was a nazi boy and his brother had documents on him that he stored away so he legacy won’t be even more destroyed it was the only kindness he ever did for him
Hi Chris, no it isn't Wallis Simpson climbing into the car, it is actually Princess Marina Duchess of Kent and wife of the late King's fourth son Prince George, the Duke of Kent.
King George V was a brute who terrified his children. Speaking to the Earl of Derby, George V said this about his children "My father was frightened of his mother, I was frightened of my father, and I am damned well going to see to it that my children are frightened of me." - repulsive man
@@beneyweneys No. His eldest son was Edward. He succeeded to the throne and then abdicated in December 1936, giving the crown to Albert, his brother. He became King George VI and reigned until his death in 1952, then of course Queen Elizabeth became monarch for 70 years.
@@beneyweneys Edward VIII(The Duke of Windsor) was the eldest and he subsequently became King upon the death of George V but he abdicated on December 11th that same year because he wanted to marry Mrs.Simpson upon which his brother The Duke of York(later known as George VI) succeeded him as Sovereign.
Okay that's completely backwards King George the 4th what's the son of King George the Third he died in the 18 hundreds this was King George V you had the numbers backwards

Yea very sad
King George V truly had a kingly look with that beard.

One of the few of Victoria's grandchildren to pass peacefully. Wilhelm II of Germany was another. One died violently, Nicholas II of Russia.
🥺
the doctor murdered him. He deliberately overdosed the kings pain medication so he would die in time for it to be announced in the morning paper.
George V and Nicholas II looked so alike

Nicholas and his immediate family were executed. There is some question as to whether his abdication was legal because the second document skipped over Alexei and gave the crown to Nicholas's brother.
