Mountbatten, Louis (1900–79) (1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma) British statesman and admiral, born Louis Francis Albert Victor Nicholas Mountbatten in Windsor, England. As supreme Allied commander for Southeast Asia (1943–45) during
World War II, Mountbatten conducted operations against Japanese-occupied Burma. Mountbatten was also the last viceroy (1947) and first governor general of India (1947–48), overseeing its transition to independence. Mountbatten was assassinated when Irish Republican Army terrorists planted a bomb on his yacht.
Mountbatten was the great-grandson of Queen Victoria.
