Victoria, born Alexandrina Victoria on May 24, 1819, at Kensington Palace in London, England, was the queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 1837 until her death in 1901. She also held the title of Empress of India from 1876 onward 1234.
Here are some key points about Queen Victoria:
Early Life: Victoria was the daughter of Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent, and the fourth son of King George III. She became heir-apparent to the British crown at the age of 11 after the death of her uncle, George IV 4.
Reign and Legacy: Victoria’s reign lasted 63 years and 216 days, making it longer than that of any of her predecessors. Her era is known as the Victorian Age, during which the British monarchy took on its modern ceremonial character 5.
Family: Victoria and her husband, Prince Consort Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, had nine children, whose marriages connected many of the royal families across Europe 1.
Values and Contradictions: Despite embodying the Victorian Age, Victoria rejected certain Victorian values and developments. She disliked pregnancy, childbirth, and babies, yet reigned in a society that idealized motherhood and family. She also resisted technological change even as innovations reshaped European civilization 1.
Queen Victoria’s reign left an indelible mark on history, and her name remains synonymous with an entire era.
