The stallion’s name is Frederik the Great, in honor of the King of Prussia, who was in power in the 18th century. ย And although the black stallion itself has not yet won any awards, its beauty certainly justifies such a pathos name๐๐๐ด๐
#1 Frederik The Great belongs to the Friesian breed, which was bred several centuries ago in Friesland, a province in the north of the Netherlands.๐๐
#2 During its existence, this breed was twice on the verge of extinction๐ฑ๐ด
#3 Only thanks to the Dutch factory it was possible to save the Friesian horses: and if earlier these horses were used as harnessed, then today they play a more decorative role๐โค๏ธ
#4 However, some individual specimens are still used for harnessing: friezes are part of the harness of the horses of the Queen of Great Britainโs carriage and have been used at least twice at large events (opening of the Parliament and opening of the World Equestrian Games in The Hague) ๐๐ด
#5 Frederik the Great is owned by Pinnacle Friesians, which is located in the central United States๐๐ด
#6 The horse has its own Facebook page (and more than 15 thousand friends), and also has its own blog, which hosts new photos of Frederik and news about his life๐ธ๐
