乔治三世(1738～1820年)
George III，原名George William Frederick。
英国及爱尔兰国王（1760～1820），也是汉诺威选侯（1760～1814）和国王（1814～1820）。乔治二世之孙，七年战争期间继承王位。乔治的主要大臣标得伯爵逼迫了庇特辞职，导致了政府内部阴谋四起，而非稳定。1763年标得辞职，但乔治提名的其他人都遭到批评，直到1770年找到诺斯勳爵当首相。英国因连年战争的关系而财政窘困，乔治赞成透过徵收美洲殖民地税捐来筹募资金的建议，结果导致美国革命。他和诺斯被谴责拖延战争，并且丧失了那些殖民地。当诺斯和福克斯联合计画控制东印度公司时，他重申了他的王权，乔治逼迫他们辞职，透过任命一个新的「爱国」首相小庇特来巩固他的控制。乔治一直支持他到与法国的革命政府战争（1793），庇特由於害怕爱尔兰跟着暴动而提出与天主教在政治上和解。乔治强烈反对，庇特因而在1801年辞职。1811年乔治旧病复发（幼年时曾短暂疯癫过），国会於是担任其儿（即未来的乔治四世）的摄政。

1738～1820年
George III
King of Great Britain and Ireland (1760-1820); also elector (1760-1814) and king (1814-20) of Hanover. The grandson of George II, he ascended the throne during the Seven Years' War. His chief minister, Lord Bute, forced William Pitt's resignation and caused intrigue rather than stability within the government. Bute resigned in 1763, but George's political overtures to others were snubbed, until Lord North became prime minister in 1770. England was in financial distress caused by the war, and George supported attempts to raise funds through taxation of the American colonies, which led to the American Revolution. With North, he was blamed for prolonging the war and losing the colonies. He reasserted his power when North and Charles James Fox planned to take control of the East India Co.; he forced them to resign and reaffirmed his control through a new “patriotic” prime minister, William Pitt. George supported him until the war with Revolutionary France (1793) and fears of related uprisings in Ireland caused Pitt to propose political emancipation of the Roman Catholics. George's vehement opposition led to Pitt's resignation in 1801. In 1811 George's ill health and a return of the madness that had afflicted him for short periods earlier in his life caused Parliament to enact the regency of his son, the future George IV.
