William Pitt the Younger lived from 1759 to 1806. He was twice Prime Minister of Great Britain and is considered one of the most significant orators in British parliamentarism.
As Prime Minister, he reorganized finances and advocated for the abolition of the slave trade.
During the French Revolution, Pitt became increasingly conservative. He opposed Napoleon and died upon learning the outcome of the Battle of Austerlitz.
