Answer 1

King George V George V
King George V (George the fifth).
George v was the british king during world war one During the First World War King George - and his wife May (as Mary was known) - visited the Western Front on several occasions. During one such visit his horse rolled on top of him, breaking his pelvis, an injury that plagued him for the rest of his life. In the midst of the war, in 1917, and sensitive of the Royal Family's German background, George changed the family name from the too-German sounding Saxe-Coburg-Gotha to Windsor. That same year George controversially denied the Russian Tsar Nicholas II - George's cousin - and his family asylum in Britain following the Russian Revolution. The Tsar was subsequently arrested and murdered by the Bolsheviks. The depression of 1929-31 convinced George that a unity government was required in order for the nation to unite in combating the prevalent poverty of the time. To that end he persuaded the three major political parties to enter into a temporary government coalition, Labour, Liberal and the Conservatives. During George's reign Britain's relationship with its colonies underwent a number of changes. Ireland was divided along religious lines in 1920 with the south being self-governing; and Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa demanded and received the right to self governance, which led to the creation in 1931 of the British Commonwealth of Nations. India gained a measure of self-governance in 1935. George V was considered neither well-educated nor well-read, and nor was he a popular wit or raconteur. However he embodied diligence, duty and duty. He sought to represent his subjects, rather than define government policy as had his predecessors Victoria and Edward. George V died on 20 January 1936 - the year previous, 1935, saw his silver jubilee - after suffering a series of debilitating attacks of bronchitis. He was succeeded by his son, Edward VIII.
