George V (George Frederick Ernest Albert) (3 June 1865 – 20 January 1936) was the last British monarch of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, changing the name to the House of Windsor in 1917.
For the rest of that year, George was styled Duke of Cornwall and York, until November 9, 1901 when he was created Prince of Wales and Earl of Chester.
However, little was done, due to the diplomatic implications of such a rescue, and perhaps because of concern that revolution might then spread to the British Isles.
