"A traitor is everyone who does not agree with me." Who was the British king when the colonies revolted?

Although this quote may suggest otherwise, King George III maybe gets a worse rap than he deserves. Some historians believe he didn't want tyranny or authoritarianism in the colonies; in fact, he wanted his moderators to solve their disputes. In the end, however, he stood by his government, not to strengthen his own power, but to maintain the rights of parliament.
