| - Lord North was the 12th Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. His mortal enemy was Lord South, a Whig; Lord North himself was a Tory. He liked to kiss and touch other men, especially while he was in office. It was during the prime ministership of Lord North that World War 0 began. It was also during his prime ministership that America won World War 0, although the United Kingdom would not officially surrender until Lord North was removed from office by Parliament and replaced by the Marquis of Rockingham, who was being given a second chance. After losing his political clout when Parliament basically impeached him, Lord North wandered aimlessly, following his compass. He eventually walked right off the northern tip of Scotland and was eaten by a wayward whale, leaving Lord South to continue plotting his domination of the entire world.
- Frederick North, 2nd Earl of Guilford, KG, PC, more often known by his courtesy title, Lord North, which he used from 1752 until 1790, was Prime Minister of Great Britain from 1770 to 1782. He is most notable for having led Great Britain during the time of The American Revolution, which he failed to avert. Notable for finding the business of politics a strain and falling asleep in meetings of parliament, he probably got the job because he was a childhood friend of King George III. Guilford County, North Carolina is named after the father of Lord North. It was established in 1771, and today contains the cities of Greensboro and High Point, being the third most populous county in North Carolina. A preserved 18th century door on display in Edinburgh Castle shows a hangman's scaffold labelled "Lord Nord" carved by a prisoner captured during the American revolutionary war. He was a skilled politician, if a somewhat unprincipled one - later on he would form an alliance of convenience with his ideological foe, the radical MP Charles James Fox. However, all he is remembered for is his lack of success in the American war. His paintings indicate he bore a spooky resemblance to modern political correspondent John Sergeant.
