George Wright-Duffy Lawrence (née George Joseph Benjamin Wright-Duffy Lawrence) was the Princess of the Uranians and founder of the Principality of Urania.
As well as the Princess of the Uranian state, George is a law student, comedian, and politician.
Early life
The Princess was born in East London, in the United Kingdom, a few months prior to the Millennium Celebrations, the first child born uniting two families of Celtic Freemasons and Spanish colonial explorers. Shortly after George turned 4, the family moved from East London to South Essex, citing "the state of London" as the reason for the relocation. The Princess remembered it fondly in a comedy routine;
I can remember being roughly 4 years old when we decided to move out of our house in Barking to Thurrock. I remember my mother, when asked why we were moving, explaining to me that "London [wasn't] a very nice place". Perhaps it was 12 years later when I was walking up my local high street, which was piss-soaked, blood splattered, and cordoned off in one corner as police investigated a shotgun-execution murder scene, that I began to ask myself whether the "not very nice place" was following me.
At his mother's instructions, George was baptised a Roman Catholic and enrolled into a Catholic school upon their arrival. George maintains her Catholicism to this day.
Academically, the Princess proved to be incredibly quick, and went on to achieve significant academic success at every stage of her studies, eventually attaining a university place to study English Law. The Princess lists it among her regrets that she chose to refuse to apply for a place at Cambridge University with his results, opting instead for the Royal Holloway University of London College with which she had fallen in love with 3 years prior, because of "never quite being sure of how different things might have been".
Homosexuality & Activism
An effeminate child, the Princess was marked out as "gay" by peers. Despite significant protest from the Princess, George later realised she was gay and came out shortly before her 13th birthday. At the time, this acted as a significant social benefit, and the Princess, a charismatic negotiator, used it to great social success with her peers.
An activist for LGBT Rights as a consequence of this, the Princess wrote to political figures for their support on the 2014 Same-Sex Marriage Act in the UK, and later went on to fundraise for charities such as AllOut, and promoting the plight of the LGBT+ in Chechnya. By the age of 18, the Princess had been elected to the Fairness Commission and the Social Services Scrutiny Committee, through which her efforts to promote Same-Sex rights and liberties were rewarded through the shaping of services and government provisions.
In 2016, the Princess authored, had reviewed, and published a paper titled "Do We Need an LGBT State?" which examined the statistical legal disadvantages that LGBT people suffered. The conclusion of this paper was the necessity of the establishment of an LGBT State, originally called "The Chaeronea Project" by the Princess in homage to the Order of Chaeronea, the LGBT Secret Society for the Promotion of Same-Sex Love.
Comedy
As well as being involved in activism and politics, the Princess is an avid stand-up comedian, performing frequently in local pub night open mic events, as well as university-sponsored events. The Princess lists Frankie Boyle, Kenneth Williams, and Julian Clary as her comedic influences, and consequently her comedy is considered to be dark, sexual, and "sexually violent". The Princess was nominated "Freshman of the Year" for her "Coming On Out" routine, which was performed alongside comedian Jodie Mitchell.
To date, the Princess has performed at the Edinburgh Fringe, as well as several London Clubs.
Urania
In December 2018, following the discovery of the dissolution of the Gay and Lesbian Kingdom of the Coral Sea Islands, George delivered the Uranian Declaration, and founded the Princiaplity of Urania, declaring himself to be Princess George I of the new LGBT state. In homage to drag culture, the Princess took female pronouns to honour the cultural history of the LGBT+ Community.
On 7 April 2019, the Princess dissolved the Principality of Urania to found the Federation of Uranian States. Returning to male pronouns, he declared himself Duke of Magnushalden, the Gay Duchy, and subsequently Grand Prince, President of the Federal Council of Urania. 20 days later, this was repealed, and the Princess returned to being the Princess of the Uranians.
