Origin:
The city of Hanover was founded by Henry the Lion, Duke of Saxony and Bavaria, in the 12th century. The name "Hanover" is believed to be derived from the Old Saxon term "Hannobari", which means "high bank" or "elevated place."
The term "Hanoverian" came into widespread use during the personal union between Great Britain and Hanover, which lasted from 1714 to 1837. George I of Hanover became King George I of Great Britain in 1714, establishing the Hanoverian dynasty that ruled both countries until the death of Queen Victoria in 1901.
During this time, the term "Hanoverian" was often used to refer to the British royal family and their supporters. It could also be used in a derogatory sense to describe German influence in British politics and society.
After the unification of Germany in 1871, the Kingdom of Hanover was dissolved and became a province of the German Empire. However, the term "Hanoverian" continued to be used to refer to the people and culture of the former kingdom.
