George II (1683-1760) was the King of Great Britain and Ireland, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg (Hanover), and a prince-elector of the Holy Roman Empire from 1727 until his death in 1760. Born in Hanover, Germany, he was the last British monarch born outside Great Britain. George II was the son of George I and Sophia Dorothea of Celle. His reign was marked by numerous military conflicts, including the War of the Austrian Succession and the Seven Years' War, which had significant impacts on European and colonial geopolitics.

George II's relationship with his father was strained, and this tension continued into his reign, affecting his political decisions and alliances. Despite his initial unpopularity, George II became known for his military leadership, particularly at the Battle of Dettingen in 1743, where he was the last British monarch to lead troops into battle. His reign also saw the expansion of British influence in India and North America, laying the groundwork for the British Empire.

Domestically, George II's reign was characterized by the development of the modern British parliamentary system. The power of the monarchy continued to wane, with significant authority being transferred to the Prime Minister and Parliament. Sir Robert Walpole, often regarded as the first de facto Prime Minister, dominated the political landscape during the early years of George II's reign.

Culturally, George II's era was a time of significant artistic and intellectual activity. The period saw the flourishing of the Enlightenment in Britain, with advancements in science, literature, and the arts. George II himself was a patron of music, most notably supporting the composer George Frideric Handel.

George II died on October 25, 1760, and was succeeded by his grandson, George III. His legacy is a complex one, marked by military achievements, the evolution of the British parliamentary system, and the expansion of British influence globally.
