About me / Bio:
Faisal II of Iraq was the last King of Iraq, who reigned from 4 April 1939 until 14 July 1958, when he was killed during the 14 July Revolution. This regicide marked the end of the thirty-seven-year-old Hashemite monarchy in Iraq, which then became a republic. He was the grandson of Faisal I and the great-grandson of Hussein ibn Ali, former sharif of Mecca and king of the Hejaz. He became king of Iraq at the age of three after his father was killed in a car crash. His uncle Prince 'Abd al-Ilah served as regent until Faisal came of age in 1953. He attended Harrow School in England with his cousin Hussein, the future King of Jordan. He supported the Anglo-Iraqi Treaty of 1930, which granted independence to Iraq but maintained substantial British influence. He also advocated for Arab unity and supported the Hashemite dynasty in Iraq and Jordan. He formed the Arab Federation with Jordan in February 1958, but it was short-lived. In July 1958, a group of Iraqi army officers led by Abd al-Karim Qasim staged a coup d'état and overthrew the monarchy. Faisal was executed along with several members of his family in the royal palace. He is considered one of the most influential figures in modern Iraqi history and a symbol of Iraqi nationalism.
