Jean-Georges, son of Christian I (1586-1591), belongs to the Albertine line of the Saxony family. On the death of their father, a distant cousin of the Ernestine line, Frédéric-Guillaume de Saxe-Altenburg, was regent from 1591 to 1602 for the three brothers Christian II (1591-1611), Auguste (1591-1615) and Jean- George I (1591-1656).
