"From Palaces to Exile: Tales of the Deposed" Abdul Hamid II of the Ottoman Empire, once a powerful ruler, was deposed from his throne. The Battle of the Boyne in 1690 marked a significant turning point as King James II was deposed and William III ascended to power. Tsar Nicholas and his son faced an uncertain fate during the Russian Revolution as they were eventually deposed from their position of authority. In 1399, Ladies Travelling witnessed a tumultuous time when Richard II was deposed by Henry IV, altering England's course forever. Augustus II, known as King Poland, experienced both glory and downfall before being ultimately deposed from his royal status. Tsar Nicholas II found himself in exile in Tobolsk, Siberia on August 13th, 1917 after being forcefully deposed amidst political turmoil in Russia. The enigmatic King Ludwig II of Bavaria met an untimely end after being declared insane and subsequently deposed from his throne. A historic visit occurred when Sultan Visits France; however, it is worth noting that sultans have been both celebrated and swiftly deposed throughout history. Princess Ka-Iulani's life took a tragic turn when her kingdom was annexed by the United States - she became one among many royals who were unexpectedly deposed due to colonial expansionism. Mihailo assassinated: Serbia mourned its leader who had been tragically removed through assassination rather than deposition or abdication.
