Persona · 1795-1861

King of Prussia (1840–61). Son and successor of Frederick William III. He granted a constitution in response to the Revolutions of 1848, but later amended it to eliminate popular influence. He refused the crown of Germany (1849) because it was offered by the Frankfurt Parliament, a democratic assembly. From 1858, the future Emperor William I ruled as regent.
