About this person

Born in Naples in 1751 as the third son of Charles VII, Ferdinand became king at eight when his father inherited the Spanish throne in 1759 and had to choose which crown to keep. Treaty rules and his older brothers' disqualifications pushed Ferdinand to the front. He ruled as Ferdinand IV of Naples and Ferdinand III of Sicily for decades until the Parthenopean Republic toppled him for six months in 1799. A French invasion ousted him again in 1806. He waited out the Napoleonic Wars in Sicily, returned in 1815, and in 1816 merged his two kingdoms into one state - the Two Sicilies - making himself Ferdinand I of the unified realm. He held it until his death in 1825, founding the cadet Bourbon-Two Sicilies line.
