George III becomes King of Great Britain at the age of 22, following the death of his grandfather, George II. He experienced behavioral changes after a fever around age 25 but he recovered.
He suffered from other "mania" episodes in 1788, leading on to his final, permanent decline beginning in 1810, at the age of 72. He remained mentally unfit to rule for the last decade of his life.
