On this day (June 20) in 1837, Alexandria Victoria became Queen of England. Born on May 24, 1819, Victoria ascended the throne at the age of 18.

Victoria ruled Britain for 63 years and 216 days. Her reign is called the 'Victorian Era'. The Victorian era saw sweeping changes in Britain in the industrial, political, scientific and military fields.

In addition, the British Empire expanded the most. During the Victorian era, about 20 percent of the world's land including India, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and South Africa was under British control.

Victoria married Prince Albert in 1940. After Albert's death in 1961, Victoria, who was deeply saddened, stopped even appearing in public for a while. But later she became active in Rajkaj. Although she was the head of a constitutional monarchy, she had the ability to appoint the cabinet and influence important government policies. Victoria died on January 22, 1901 at the age of 81. After his death, Edward VII became King of England.
