King of England = a regal title, a designation for a monarch, emphasis is on the person
England's king = the possessive form, emphasizing England (not the person)

there's no difference at all in the meaning of these two expressions. there's also very little difference in the usage of them. The phrase King of England has a sort of status as a normal way of saying it rather than England's King. but in general these uses are interchangeable and people will probably default to whatever is shorter and sounds better to them in context.
the one situation where it's very much more coming to use the apostrophe s construction is when you're talking about something that a person possesses. it is George's book, and rarely ever the book of George.

Why don’t the author replace ‘a of b’ and ‘s position? I also has a few English Language sense that if I write the similar sentence as above,but Why?
Can you rewrite it without changing its meaning?
