Queen Victoria’s life covers most of the 19th century. She became Queen of the United Kingdom in 1837 when she was only 18 years old. Three years later, she married Albert, a German prince. They had nine children. Albert died in 1861. After his death, Victoria wore black clothes for the rest of her life. She died in 1901 at the age of 81 and is the longest reigning British monarch.   

   People’s daily life changed greatly during Victoria’s reign. Industry became more important than agriculture and many people moved from the country to towns to work in the new factories. At first the towns were dirty and unhealthy, but slowly things improved. New sewers took away the waste water from people’s homes. Big towns had libraries, art galleries, and parks. In 1837, only rich people went to school, but by 1901 education was free for everybody up to the age of twelve. Railways were built to every part of the kingdom. People became richer and were able to buy more goods. Hundreds of new shops opened. Covered shopping centers, called arcades, were built in the larger towns. Towards the end of the century, huge department stores opened. Shoppers could now buy nearly everything they wanted in one step. The adjective ‘Victorian’ describes things typical of the time of the Queen’s reign. Victorian values included hard work and strict discipline for children. The saying “children should be seen and not heard” comes from this time.
