King of Tonga George Tupou V
May 4 1948 – March 18 2012
Christian Science Monitor:George Tupou V
The King was recognized as a descendant of the sky god Tangeroa. He was sworn in as King Tupou V on 11 September 2006, which also made him, from a traditional viewpoint, the 23rd Tu'i Kanokupolu (the overlords of Tongatapu). The king was a bachelor who had a daughter out of wedlock — but she doesn't have a claim to the throne under Tonga's constitution, which recognizes only children born in wedlock as legitimate heirs. Tongan Prime Minister Lord Siale'ataonga Tu'ivakano said in a brief radio address Monday that the king died at 3 p.m. Sunday during a visit to Hong Kong. He didn't give a cause of death, but said further details and funeral plans would be released when available.

"He will be remembered by many for his throwback fashion choices — which included wearing, at times, a top hat and even a monocle."
He was only 63
