Compton's Encyclopedia (via America Online, 1995):
Britain's king during World War I was George V. It was he who cut off the royal family's
connection to all things German and renamed his line the House of Windsor. George V was the
grandson of Queen Victoria and the son of Edward VII. From the age of 12 he was trained for a
career in the navy. He had risen to the rank of commander in the Royal Navy, when the death of
his older brother made him at the age of 26 heir to the throne. Through his duty in the navy
he had gained extensive personal knowledge of outlying British lands before he became king.
In 1893 George married Mary, the only daughter of the duke of Teck. Five of their children
lived to maturity: Edward, prince of Wales, who became King Edward VIII; Albert, duke of York,
who succeeded Edward as George VI; the duke of Gloucester; the duke of Kent; and Mary, the
royal princess, countess of Harewood. As king, George maintained the wise policies of
constitutional rule followed by his father. During his reign the Crown became the connecting
link between the mother country and the self-governing members of the British Commonwealth. In
1911 he had traveled to India for a coronation ceremony to cement ties with that colony. In
May 1935 the silver jubilee of his reign was celebrated. He died on Jan. 20, 1936, and was
succeeded by Edward VIII (see Edward, Kings of England).

[11389] He was called the Citizen King. Louis Philippe belonged to the house of Bourbon-Orleans, a branch of the French royal family stemming from Philippe I, duc d'Orleans, the brother of King Louis XIV. From his birth until 1785 Louis Philippe was known as the duc de Valois and subsequently as the duc de Chartres until 1793, when his father was guillotined, and he succeeded him as duc d'Orleans. Like his father, he was in sympathy with the French Revolution, the upheaval in France that resulted in the establishment of the First Republic, and in 1790 he joined the Jacobins, members of a French radical political club. Two years later, at the age of 18, he was given a command in the revolutionary army and, as a colonel, fought at the battles of Valmy and Jemappes. After the defeat of the French army by the Austrians at the Battle of Neerwinden, Holland, in 1793, Louis Philippe was implicated with his superior officer, the French general Charles François Dumouriez (1739-1823), in a plot against the republic, and he fled to Switzerland. After the execution of his father by the French Revolutionary Tribunal, Louis Philippe became the central figure about whom his supporters, the Orléanist party, rallied; he did not actively enter into the intrigues for restoring the monarchy, however, and during the regime of the Directory and that of Napoleon, Louis Philippe remained outside France, traveling in Scandinavia, the United States (where he lived for four years in Philadelphia), and England. He also visited Sicily at the invitation of Ferdinand I, king of the Two Sicilies, and in 1809 he married the king's daughter Maria Amelia. In 1814, after the abdication of Napoleon, he returned to France and was welcomed by King Louis XVIII, who restored to him the Orleans estates. By the late 1820s, however, under the autocratic rule of Louis XVIII's brother and successor, Charles X, the last of the Bourbon monarchs, the French middle and lower classes were growing restive. Louis Philippe was by this time the favorite of those Republican leaders who feared to arouse the opposition of all Europe by establishing a republic, and hoped that Louis Philippe would govern according to popular will. In 1830, by the July Revolution that overthrew Charles X and the Bourbon dynasty in France, Louis Philippe was proclaimed king by the Chamber of Deputies. At first Louis Philippe was content to rule as a citizen king and to conciliate the Republicans who had helped bring him to power; he also dispensed with many royal privileges. Gradually, however, while remaining a constitutional monarch, he became more authoritarian, seeking not only to establish the Bourbon-Orléans dynasty in France but also to consolidate his position among the sovereigns of Europe. He arranged for the marriage of his daughter Louise to Léopold I, king of the Belgians. The last years of his reign were marked by corruption in domestic affairs and by lethargy in foreign affairs. Louis Philippe, having tried to win the favor of both the democratic and authoritarian elements, was at last deserted by both sides and was deposed by the Revolution of 1848, which led to the formation in France of the Second Republic (1848-52) and the rise of Louis Napoleon, later Napoleon III, emperor of France. After his abdication Louis Philippe lived with his family in England.
