the Victorian Age

I am especially interested in Victoria who is one of the most famous historical people in the word,not only just what she contributed to the UK but also the person who she is.When I was in my middle school,I have known her from my history course,but just very basic information about her.After that,when I moved up to study in my university,I learned more about her.

First of all,how is the person she is.She became the Queen in 1837 when she was 18 years old,and married a German prince called Albert three years later,and there is a very romantic story about their love .However, her husband died when she was very young,then she had never married with others because she loves her husband very much even all her life.So I respect her attitude of love .Moreover,the most important thing is how she affected the development of UK,even all over the world,she is one of the most successful and greatest Queen in the UK,there were many advances in many ares such as science,economy and culture and so on during the Victorian period.In addition,the territory of British Empire was extending at that time,meanwhile, the Britain's army and navy was the most powerful at the Victorian Age. In generally,she obtained a giant achievements in different ares when she was the Queen of the UK.
She built the most famous era which chinese people call :Sun does not set the Empire.I really admire her abilities in the policy and leading .
