Frederick Augustus III, Elector (1763-1806), King (1806-1827) (Amt Dahme) : All Data

Frederick Augustus III was the Elector of Saxony from 1763 to 1806 and the King of Saxony from 1806 to 1827. His reign coincided with the tumultuous period of the Napoleonic Wars, which had a significant impact on his kingdom. During his rule, Saxony was involved in several major conflicts, including the War of the Fourth Coalition (1806-1807), where Saxony fought alongside Napoleon against Prussia and Russia, and the War of the Sixth Coalition (1812-1814), where Saxony initially supported Napoleon but later switched sides to join the coalition against him. These wars shaped Frederick Augustus III's reign and had lasting consequences for the Kingdom of Saxony.
