*** About Queen Victoria: Queen Victoria, born in 1819, was the monarch of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 1837 until her death in 1901, making her one of the longest-reigning British monarchs. Her era, known as the Victorian Age, was marked by industrial, cultural, political, scientific, and military change within the United Kingdom, and was also a period of expansion of the British Empire. Under her rule, the role of the monarchy became more symbolic and ceremonial, as power shifted towards Parliament and the Prime Minister. Victoria's enduring legacy is characterized by the moral rigor and powerful family ties she promoted, which left a lasting imprint on British society.
