As Eric refused to allow Sophia any of the political power over the territories he acquired through her , which she felt she was entitled to , the couple separated . Sophia moved to Rügenwalde Castle with her children and her lover , Hans of Maszerski . In 1470 , she refused to finance her husband 's war with Brandenburg . She was widowed in 1474 .

Aside from a few attempts , supported by pro-absolutist factions among the nobility , to reclaim the absolute monarchy held by previous monarchs , he remained a mere constitutional figurehead until his death . His reign saw an extended period of internal peace , although the finances stagnated following failed mercantilist doctrines pursued by the Hat administration . The Hat administration ended only in the 1765-66 parliament , where the Cap opposition overtook the government and enacted reforms towards greater economic liberalism as well as a Freedom of Press Act almost unique at the time for its curtailing of all censorship , retaining punitive measures only for libeling the monarch or the Church of Sweden .

Luxembourg , however , followed Salic law which barred females from succession . Thus , upon King William III 's death , the crown of the Netherlands passed to his only daughter , Wilhelmina , while that of Luxembourg passed to Adolphe in accordance with the Nassau Family Pact .

George is the most recent British monarch born outside Great Britain : he was born and brought up in northern Germany . The Act of Settlement 1701 and the Acts of Union 1707 positioned his grandmother , Sophia of Hanover , and her Protestant descendants to inherit the British throne . After the deaths of Sophia and Anne , Queen of Great Britain , in 1714 , his father , the Elector of Hanover , became George I of Great Britain . In the first years of his father 's reign as king , George was associated with opposition politicians , until they rejoined the governing party in 1720 . As king from 1727 , George exercised little control over British domestic policy , which was largely controlled by the Parliament of Great Britain . As elector , he spent twelve summers in Hanover , where he had more direct control over government policy .

During the War of the Austrian Succession , George participated at the Battle of Dettingen in 1743 , and thus became the last British monarch to lead an army in battle .

Caroline was orphaned at a young age and moved to the enlightened court of her guardians , King Frederick I and Queen Sophia Charlotte of Prussia . At the Prussian court , her previously limited education was widened , and she adopted the liberal outlook possessed by Sophia Charlotte , who became her good friend and whose views influenced Caroline all her life . As a young woman , Caroline was much sought-after as a bride . After rejecting the suit of the nominal King of Spain , Archduke Charles of Austria , she married George Augustus , the third-in-line to the British throne and heir apparent to the Electorate of Hanover . They had eight children , seven of whom grew to adulthood . Caroline moved permanently to Britain in 1714 when her husband became Prince of Wales . As Princess of Wales , she joined her husband in rallying political opposition to his father King George I . In 1717 , her husband was expelled from court after a family row .

He was eighteen years old when his father died . A regency council was appointed that ruled in his name for the next nine years . The regency handed over the actual rule of his territories to him in 1585 . He immediately faced problems he was ill-equipped to deal with , including massive debt and his uncle Christopher 's demands for territorial concessions . After an especially harsh argument with his uncle , he committed suicide . Since suicides could not be buried in hallowed ground , a story was concocted which alleged that Johann had been killed by the devil as part of a pact with two women from Schwerin . The women were questioned : Katharina Wankelmuth , who died from the effects of torture , and Magdalena Rukitz , who was burned at the stake . Their condemnation as witches cleared the way for Johann 's burial in Schwerin Cathedral .
