Prince William of Wied, Prince of Albania ((ドイツ語:Wilhelm Friedrich Heinrich); (アルバニア語:Princ Vidi ''or'' Princ Vilhelm Vidi); 26 March 1876 – 18 April 1945), reigned briefly as sovereign of the Principality of Albania as Vidi I〔http://www.royalark.net/Albania/wied.htm〕 from 7 March 1914 to 3 September 1914 when he left for exile. His reign officially came to an end on 31 January 1925 when the country was declared an Albanian Republic. Outside the country and in diplomatic correspondence, he was styled "sovereign prince", but in Albania he was referred to as ''mbret,'' or king. He was also styled Skanderbeg II, in homage to Skanderbeg, the national hero.〔 〕 ==Family and early life== William was born on 26 March 1876 in Schloss Neuwied am Rhein, near Koblenz, as Prince William of Wied ((ドイツ語:Wilhelm Friedrich Heinrich Prinz zu Wied)). He was the third son of William, 5th Prince of Wied (brother of Queen Elisabeth of Romania), and his wife Princess Marie of the Netherlands (sister of Queen Louise of Sweden). His paternal grandparents were Hermann, Prince of Wied, and Princess Marie of Nassau. Marie was a daughter of William, Duke of Nassau, and his first wife Princess Louise of Saxe-Hildburghausen, the daughter of Frederick, Duke of Saxe-Altenburg, and Duchess Charlotte Georgine of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. His maternal grandparents were Prince Frederick of the Netherlands and Princess Louise of Prussia. Louise was a daughter of Frederick William III of Prussia and Duchess Louise of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. Prince William served as a Prussian cavalry officer before becoming a captain in the German General Staff in 1911. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「William, Prince of Albania」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
