About George III of the United Kingdom

George III of the United Kingdom (1738–1820) was a central political figure whose long reign spanned the American Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars. As the monarch who presided over the loss of the Thirteen Colonies, his tenure was marked by immense constitutional and imperial transformation. His historical significance is reflected in his high ranking by MIT's Pantheon project at #147 among the world's most influential figures.

Despite this substantial historical importance, George III currently experiences a significant internet attention gap. His Wikipedia views in 2025 totaled only 178K, placing him at a -3x underattention relative to his HPI ranking. For context, this level of online interest is dramatically lower than many contemporaries, such as Richard Wagner (#192 importance) who commanded 855K views, or even Walt Disney (#463 importance) drawing 2.6M views in the same year.

Recent interest shows modest fluctuation; his 2025 Momentum, comparing Q1 to Q3 traffic, saw a slight increase of +5%, though his Year-over-Year change indicated a decline of -13.4% in overall attention.
