George II at the Battle of Dettingen by Robert Alexander Hillingford
The last battle in which a reigning British monarch commanded on the battlefield. The Duke of Noailles later said in a letter to King Louis XV 'They didn’t even advance one step; their infantry in tight formation stood like a merciless wall.’

He believed that his family were the only ones who wanted him to be king, and that was one of the reasons why he did not want to be king. After he reluctantly became king, he was surprised to hear and see people shouting his name with joy. The emotional transitions in this scene were very fast King Aegon ii Targaryen is a very different, complex character. It would take pages to describe him.
