George William Frederick, more commonly known as George III, was one of the most famous kings of the Great Britain. He was known, during and after his reign, for his benevolent, compassionate, and docile nature. He was more learned than his predecessors, and a patron of advancements in science, agriculture, and technology. He had a penchant for collecting objects pertaining to science and mathematics, which are now displayed at London's 'Science Museum.' He earned the nickname ‘Farmer George’ because of the attention he gave to ordinary matters rather than concentrating on political affairs. The name stuck with him when people realized the value of his humility and simplicity, as compared to his pompous son who succeeded him. Along with Prime Minister William Pitt the Younger, he gained popularity amongst his subjects. As a king, he avoided speaking ill to anyone, and is believed to have taken decisions, often considered wrong, to defend his chosen Parliament, rather than establishing his own control. Despite mixed opinions about this king, it is a fact that he is still revered by many across the world.
