Victor Amadeus II was the Duke of Savoy from 1675 to 1720 and the King of Sardinia from 1720 to 1730. He ruled during the period of 1675-1730. One of the most significant wars that occurred during his tenure was the War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714), where Victor Amadeus II initially supported the French claimant to the Spanish throne but later switched sides to join the Grand Alliance against France. Another important conflict was the War of the Quadruple Alliance (1718-1720), in which Victor Amadeus II fought alongside Britain, France, and the Dutch Republic against Spain. These wars shaped the political landscape of Europe and had a profound impact on the Kingdom of Sardinia.
