the leaders


The Victorian era was a era of great change. One of the main reasons is the fact that the rulers were extremely intelligent and forward thinking and they had a great amount of foresight. The era is name after queen Victoria (became queen in 1837) she was an unpopular queen because she mourned after her husband for a long time and didn't come outside and greet the public so she lost public favor. Queen Victoria's husband was a man of science and engineering. He was the symbol of the victorian era he promoted the building of the crystal palace and set a base for the industrial revolution that happened later.
