After watching 8 episodes, the play mentioned that the time was around 1810, and also mentioned that the king was George, the real King of England was George III, and the queen was Sophie Charlotte, all pure white Germans. The queen in this play is obviously black and yellow.
One thing is true, the show says the king is sick and kind of crazy. The real George III suffered from mental illness in his later years.
And the background of George III in this play is also more in line with the theme of love, because George III and the queen have been in love with each other all their lives and have 15 children. George III is very rare among British kings who do not find a mistress.
