George Curzon
George Curzon, Lord Curzon, was Viceroy of India from 1899 to 1905. He pursued administrative reform, the conservation of ancient monuments and an assertive frontier policy, creating the North-West Frontier Province. His partition of Bengal in 1905 provoked mass protests and was reversed in 1911, and he later served as British Foreign Secretary from 1919 to 1924.
