It's fascinating reading opinions on Hamilton by someone who actually already had opinions about the politics of those events!
For George III, I'm not sure I could pinpoint what role it has in the play, but I'd guess, it gives the war an enemy to triumph over, and it portrays the existing political system as bad, showing the Constitution as a good alternative and making it feel like Hamilton's achievements mattered
