Homeschool Day: Thunder Mugs & Tea Cups
Queen Victoria had the longest reign in British history, and the cultural, political, economic, industrial, and scientific changes that occurred during her reign were remarkable. When Victoria ascended to the throne in 1837, England was essentially farm-based and rural; upon her death in 1901, the country was highly industrialized and connected by a massive railway network. This period has become known as the Victorian Age. America was influenced by England during this era. The main theme of the Victorian Age in America is change. Transformations were dramatic, rapid, and far-reaching. The Victorian America saw the admission of 12 new states. Americans voted on 10 different constitutional amendments. The country’s population doubled. Americans were becoming more diverse, more urban, and more mobile.
