Absztrakt (kivonat)
William III also widely known as William of Orange. Ha was the sovereign Prince of Orange from birth, the stadtholder of Holland, Zeeland, Utrecht, Guelders and Overijssel from 1672 and – after the Glorious Revolution (1689) with his wife, Mary II – the king of England, Ireland and Scotland. William’s reign came at a precarious time in Europe when religious divide dominated international relations. William would emerge as an important Protestant figurehead. This study summarizes the political biography of the Protestant ruler from his birth to his death. Initially he was a puppet with no political influence in his country (United Provinces). After the year of disaster (Rampjaar, 1672) became the stadtholder of many provinces of the United Provinces. Over the years he became a famous personality not only in his native country, but also abroad. He became the „Defender of European Protestantism”. His biggest opponent was the catholic Louis XIV, the French King (1643-1715), with whom he fought many wars.The high point of his life, when he became – with his wife, Mary II. – the King of England, Ireland and Scotland. He was a tireless ruler, but unpopular in the „British Isles”. He had many enemies, for example the Jacobites, the Catholic Irish, the French, but – because of his personality and his regal style – the Protestant English and Scots didn’t like it either. William III. died at Kensington Palace (London) where he had moved the royal household to „escape” Hampton Court, which was bad for his asthma. He died of pneumonia after a horse riding accident. The king's horse, Sorrel tripped in a molehill and threw its rider. For many years afterwards, his Jacobite enemies would raise their glasses and toast „the little gentleman in the black velvet waistcoat”. The „little gentleman in the black velvet” was the mole.
