George Crown Prince of Serbia Royalty

George, Crown Prince of Serbia (Serbian: kraljević Đorđe Karađorđević; 27 August 1887 – 17 October 1972) was the son of King Peter I of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes and Princess Ljubica (Zorka) of Montenegro, the grandson of King Nicholas I of Montenegro, and the older brother of King Alexander I of Yugoslavia. He was a member of the European Royal House of Karađorđević. As the eldest son, he was his father's heir-apparent, but he did not get to savour his role for long, as he was forced to renounce his succession rights in 1909 after he kicked his servant to death in a fit of rage.
