    Stayed on his country on it's hour of need, beat his stutter and was a symbol of unity. This man was everything a modern monarch should be! ALL HAIL GEORGE VI! 🫅🫅🫅🫅🫅

    Never wanted to be king, and had to oversee WW2.. Such a contrast with his brother, the UK was lucky to have him.

    This dude was not prepared for this at all, and the stress from the war and the general responsibilities of the monarch that his selfish and irresponsible older brother dumped on him literally killed him. Massive respect for stepping up.
    (Only Elizabeth II left! I expect that video to be loooong, lol)

      Eh, not really too sure about that last part. Perhaps it'll be longer than this video and the last two, but I don't think it'll be anywhere near the range of one of his longest videos. For as long as Elizabeth II's reign was, she still was just like her few predecessors much more of a figurehead rather than a genuinely powerful political figure and is much more known for her symbolism rather than any major political accomplishments (she was famously non-political on a lot of topics, after all).

    He was the right man in the right time. His stoic character was perfect for the austerity during and after the war. He is one of my favourite kings.

    One of our finest kings, stayed with the people during the blitz and helped lead us to victory, could’ve cleared off but did his duty. Great man

    Absolutely love these videos, George VI was an amazing man and King who helped us win the war and overcame his problems, genuinely always an event in my household when there's a new video and by far my favourite youtuber. After Elizabeth II, is it possible to make a King Charles III- The life and Reign so far video? Much love and respect ❤

    His stammer was caused by being made to write with his right hand, and not his natural side his left hand
    A lot of people don’t realise this and my mum was also made to write with her right hand, her left hand was tied behind her back

    I absolutely love your channel but I admit I'll be happy when you go back to the medieval age and do Eleanor of Aquitaine
    William Marshall
    All of Henry the 8ths queens.
    Lady Jane Grey.
    Thomas Cromwell
    The Black Prince.
    Just to name a few.
    Thank you for all your great work.

    These are getting shorter and shorter since Stuarts. Undrstandable, because RUclips is full of content about 20th century royals, but maybe too brief for my liking.

      I think it's more so just the fact that the British Monarchs of modern times aren't like the English kings of the Medieval times. They have held far less power and prestige and are pretty much little more than figureheads.

      There's only so much to talk about with British Monarchs after Queen Victoria, considering that pretty much all of them since her reign have been little more than figureheads who have held very little if any actual political power and influence.
