From George I to the accession of Queen Victoria the Hanoverians span a period of 123 years. A fairly stable period with five kings, one of whom - George III - was to be the longest reigning king in British history. We start our visit in 1714, with a German who is 52nd in line to the throne and who became monarch without being able to speak a single word of English. 1727 sees George II come to the throne. His reign was to last until 1760 when George III's sixty year rule began. George IV was crowned in 1820, followed ten years later by the last of the Hanoverians.

From Elizabeth II to Cleopatra, Real Royalty peels back the curtain to give a glimpse into the lives of some of the most influential families in the world, with new full length documentaries posted every week covering the monarchies of today and all throughout history.
