Little William Pitt. William Pitt the Younger, a British politician who was active in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. In 1783, he became prime minister, aged 24, and remains the youngest prime minister in British history to this day. In 1801, he resigned as prime minister, but in 1804, he reigned as prime minister, but died in 1806. During his tenure as prime minister, he served as a minister of finance. In order to distinguish him from his father, William the Younger, he was usually added to his name by adding "the Younger". Little Pitt is not only the youngest prime minister in the history of the British Prime Minister, but also the most intelligent and thoughtful prime minister. Little Pitt represented the Conservative Party to preserve the results of the Glorious Revolution. Another characteristic of Little Pitt's rule is that he pushed for balanced diplomacy, so he was called "the foundation for British foreign policy for the next century." From 1783 until his death in 1806, only about two years in the middle, Little Pitt has held the throne of the prime minister, forming a long “Pitt era”. After his death, his disciples have held the monopoly for about 20 years, with the more influential of the Duke of Casillas, George Canning and Parmiston, etc. Over 40 years is the famous conservative period in British history, Little Pitt is known as the father of British conservative politics. And his hatred of the French Revolution is not under Berk, it is he led the war against Napoleon, and on his tomb is still engraved such an inscription: In the era of ideological poisoning civilization threatened society, he led loyal, intelligent and righteous people to defend the precious British monarchy. Another famous conservative politician in the 20th century Little William Pitt was a capable prime minister, able to rule the cabinet. Though he was sometimes opposed by the cabinet members, he established the prime minister's role in the government: coordinator and supervisor between departments. However, since George III was in power, Pitt's influence in the government was not very large. One of Pitt’s achievements was to improve the government’s financial situation, which had worsened since the American War of Independence. He settled the government’s debt, reformed the tax system and improved taxation efficiency. Pete’s other domestic plans failed. He failed to reform Congress, liberate Catholicism, and ban slave trade (one year after his death, Congress passed the 1807 Slave Trade Act, which banned slave trade). Biographer William Hague believed that his failure to ban slave trade was the biggest regret of his political career. The Hague noted that the political situation at the end of Pete’s political career allowed him to issue an abolition of slavery. The Hague felt that Pete’s wrong chance was because he was already “the end of force.” The Hague believed that Pete’s prime minister’s term “tested how long the prime minister’s term could be. From 1783 to 1792, whenever Pete encountered a difficult issue, he was skillfully able to solve the problem. After 1793, Pete Pete was a close friend of the businessman and banker Thomas Raikes (1741–1813), who was the governor of the Bank of England during the French Revolution, and replaced gold with banknotes when the savers took money to avoid losing the bank’s gold reserves. On February 26, 1797, the Bank of England began issuing banknotes worth £1 and £2 respectively.
