The era in which Queen Victoria was the reigning monarch of the United Kingdom; this Era lasted from June 20,
1837 to January 22, 1901, when the Edwardian Era began after
Queen Victoria's passing.
The Victorian Era is typically seen by many as a time of humourlessness and strict moral codes, but it is also associated with manners, high society, monocles, top hats, corsets, the term "
we are not amused," and an aversion towards split infinitives.
