'''William Lamb, 2nd Viscount Melbourne''', [[Knight Fever|PC, FRS]], was, as well as being a Prime Minister, a mentor to [[Queen Victoria]]. His time in office was noted for foreign policy events such as the Upper Canada rebellion (and, in response, the two Canadas being united under a single authority for the first time) and a joint international intervention against Muhammad Ali of Egypt to prevent his conquest of Syria (some Arabs are still bitter about that).
