King George the V sat on the throne of the British Empire in 1914. His Queen consort was the German princess, May of Teck. Upon marriage to Georgie as King George was known amongst his family she became first, the Duchess of York and upon the death of her father in law who ruled as Edward VII she became Queen Mary. Interestingly, Queen Mary was first betrothed to George's elder brother Albert Victor The Duke of Clarence and Avondale as the eldest son of Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, Albert Victor was the heir apparent until his untimely death from Typhoid fever in 1892. In dying he bequeathed his bride, Princess May and his position in the Order of Succession as heir to the throne of England to his younger and rather lackluster albeit dutiful brother George.
