The Victorian era of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland was an era during the reign of Queen Victoria from 1837 to 1901. The period is seen as a time of prosperity in Great Britain. During this period, a well-bred middle class emerged in that country. This was due to the benefits of the British Empire's overseas territories, as well as industrial developments within Britain.

Under Victoria, Britain was the leading nation in the world and the British Empire a global empire. How people thought of things in Britain was considered important all over the world.

In Victorian times people were very prudish. It is not without reason that the Victorian era is known as 'the century of chastity'.
