專家說明

Born Victoria Adelaide Mary Louise in London, England, in 1840, Empress Frederick (1840-1901) was the oldest child of England's Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. She married Prince Frederick William of Prussia, German Emperor Frederick III (1831-1888) in 1858, at age 17. On the death of his father on 9 March 1888, the Crown Prince ascended the throne as the Emperor Frederick III and as King Frederick III of Prussia and Victoria adopted the title and style of Her Imperial and Royal Majesty the German Empress, Queen of Prussia. Frederick, however, was terminally ill with throat cancer and died after reigning for just ninety-nine days. From then on she was known simply as Her Imperial Majesty the Empress Frederick. She and Frederick had eight children together: Wilhelm II, Charlotte, Henry, Sigismund, Victoria, Waldemar, Sophie and Margaret. Empress Frederick died on August 5, 1901, in Schloss Friedrichshof, Kronberg, Germany.
