Hanoverian Dynasty
The Hanoverian Dynasty was a royal family that ruled Britain from 1714 to 1901, starting with King George I. They originated from Hanover, a German state, and came to power after the last Stuart monarch, Queen Anne, died without a direct heir. The dynasty included notable kings such as George II, George III, and Queen Victoria, who saw major events like the American Revolution, the expansion of the British Empire, and industrialization. The Hanoverians played a crucial role in shaping modern Britain, and their lineage continues today, with the British royal family being descendants of this dynasty.
