Following the allocations at the Congress of Vienna, it became the fourth largest German-speaking state in Europe. It was made the ninth electorate of the Holy Roman Empire after its Duke, Ernest Augustus, arranged a marriage with the daughter of George William and remained independent until it was annexed by Prussia.

For 10 points, name this German kingdom which thus established a namesake British royal house.
