William I Of The Netherlands
William I (Willem Frederik, Prince of Orange-Nassau; 24 August 1772 – 12 December 1843) was a Prince of Orange, the King of the Netherlands and Grand Duke of Luxembourg. He was the son of the last Stadtholder of the Dutch Republic, who went into exile to London in 1795 because of the Batavian Revolution. As compensation for the loss of all his father's possessions in the Low Countries, an agreement was concluded between France and Prussia in which William was appointed ruler of the newly created Principality of Nassau-Orange-Fulda in 1803; this was however short-lived and in 1806 he was deposed by Napoleon.

In 1813, when Napoleon was defeated at the Battle of Leipzig, the Orange-Nassau territories ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

In both cases, names were often shortened for everyday use (''Wilhelmus'' and ''Willem'' became ''Wim'').
