jan 1, 1688 - William III (1688)

Description:

A Dutchman in the line of the Princes of Orange who came to be Stadholder and eventually a king of England through his marriage with Mary Stuart. His accomplishments include fending off King Louis XIV of France multiple times and joining forces with many countries to fight against him in wars.

(COMPARISON) He deserves a place in this list over his father, William II, as he achieved more by becoming the king of England and defending his country. (Palmer, 152)
