谁嫁给了George I of Great Britain？

George I (George Louis; German: Georg Ludwig; 28 May 1660 – 11 June 1727) was King of Great Britain and Ireland from 1 August 1714 and ruler of the Electorate of Hanover within the Holy Roman Empire from 23 January 1698 until his death in 1727. He was the first British monarch of the House of Hanover.

Born in Hanover to Ernest Augustus and Sophia of Hanover, George inherited the titles and lands of the Duchy of Brunswick-Lüneburg from his father and uncles. In 1682, he married his cousin Sophia Dorothea of Celle, with whom he had two children; he also had three daughters with his mistress Melusine von der Schulenburg. George and Sophia Dorothea divorced in 1694. A succession of European wars expanded George's German domains during his lifetime; he was ratified as prince-elector of Hanover in 1708.

As the senior Protestant descendant of his great-grandfather James VI and I, George inherited the British throne following the deaths in 1714 of his mother, Sophia, and his second cousin Anne, Queen of Great Britain. Jacobites attempted, but failed, to depose George and replace him with James Francis Edward Stuart, Anne's Catholic half-brother. During George's reign the powers of the monarchy diminished, and Britain began a transition to the modern system of cabinet government led by a prime minister. Towards the end of his reign, actual political power was held by Robert Walpole, now recognised as Britain's first de facto prime minister.

George died in 1727 on a journey to his native Hanover, where he was buried. He is the most recent British monarch to be buried outside the United Kingdom.

艾倫嘉德·美露莘·馮·德·舒倫堡（Ehrengard Melusine von der Schulenburg，1667年12月25日—1743年5月10日），生於德國，獲封肯德爾女公爵及芒斯特女公爵，是英國國王喬治一世的王室情婦。

不伦瑞克-吕讷堡的索菲·多罗特娅（德語：Sophie Dorothea von Braunschweig-Lüneburg，1666年9月15日—1726年11月13日），汉诺威选帝侯格奥尔格一世·路德维希妻子，英王乔治二世生母。

索菲·多羅特婭是不倫瑞克-呂訥堡公爵喬治·威廉和原情婦伊利諾·達美婭·杜布斯的女兒，因是貴庶通婚，雖然夫妻生活美滿，卻受到男方家庭的普遍敵視。喬治·威廉也因為女兒索菲·多羅特婭出生的關係，改變了原本要把公國直接傳給三弟的計畫。執意讓16歲的索菲在1682年與三弟的長子乔治一世（时为汉诺威选帝侯继承人兼索菲堂兄）結婚，才確定喬治一世與父親能繼承不倫瑞克-呂訥堡公國全部領地的事實。

婚後索菲育有一男一女，即乔治二世與漢諾威的索菲·多羅特婭，但夫妻兩人生活衝突不斷增加，很快就成為怨偶，這跟喬治的母親、索菲的婆婆──索菲歧視親家母伊利諾是平民頗有關係，加上索菲只將索菲的嫁入視為一筆划算的收入──每年從索菲的領地可獲得十萬塔勒的銀幣，實際上討厭這個媳婦，很自然感染了喬治對妻子的態度，他經常批評索菲缺乏禮儀，兩人在生活上總是爭吵不斷。

後因為乔治一世與坎都女公爵有婚外情，索菲亦與凱尼格斯馬克伯爵私通，這對怨偶各自的婚外情讓佐治的母親和弟弟開始憂慮，試圖勸和兩人，卻被固執的夫妻倆雙雙拒絕。1694年7月，凱尼格斯馬克伯爵被殺，屍體被沉在莱讷河中，同時乔治一世即要求與索菲離婚，理由是索菲背棄、私通，1694年兩人離婚。兩人離婚後，索非亞被喬治一世監禁在靠近近塞列的阿爾登古堡（喬治說服岳父兼二伯父同意此舉），直到1726年逝世共監禁32年。但索非亞被允許擁有自己的年金和僕人，也可以在監督下坐馬車繞行阿爾登古堡，他甚至不允許妻子見親生兒子、女兒和父親，只有索菲的母親伊莉諾與她相伴，一直照料索菲到1722年過世為止（伊莉諾試圖拯救女兒並讓女兒回歸自由，但卻徒勞無功）。

期间，喬治的二伯父喬治·威廉於1705年過世，1714年乔治一世登基为英国国王。索菲亚被囚禁也使得其子乔治（即后来的乔治二世）与乔治一世关系紧张。索菲亚享年60歲，临死写信诅咒前夫。乔治一世不许汉诺威和不列颠哀悼，得知女儿的朝廷为索菲亚着黑衣悼念后愤怒了。收到诅咒信后不久，乔治一世也去世。
