King George V
King George V was the British monarch from 1910 until his death in 1936. He was known for modernizing the British monarchy and leading the country through World War I. His reign saw significant changes, including the renaming of the royal house from the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to the House of Windsor due to anti-German sentiment. He was married to Queen Mary of Teck, who played a crucial role in royal duties during their time.
