  1. NONE because kings are fed up self centered power hungry unchecked political leaders


  2. Although suspected of scamming funds from the military budget, his military son, Frederick was his favorite.  It was Frederick's mistress, Mary Anne Clarke who took bribes to use her influence to get military appointments from Frederick.

  3. George III's favourite son was Frederick, Duke of York. On 29 January 1820, George died at Windsor Castle. His favourite son was with him until the end. The Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany (16 August 1763–5 January 1827) was the second eldest child, and second son, of King George III. From 1820 until his death in 1827, he was the heir presumptive to his elder brother, King George IV, both to the United Kingdom and the Kingdom of Hanover. The Duke of York was his father's favourite son. He remained, however, somewhat in the shadow of his flashy elder brother, George, Prince of Wales, especially after the latter became Prince Regent due to the mental incapacity of the King. However, the two brothers continued to enjoy a warm relationship. They had many interests in common and they both enjoyed indulging their physical desires; but generally speaking, the Duke of York took a more diligent approach to the discharge of his public duties than did the Prince Regent.

  4. Princess Amelia was his favorite child.....I have not heard of his favorite son.
