NOTES: Victoria, Queen of England, Empress of India; a.k.a.: Alexandrina Victoria Reign: 20 Jun 1837 - 22 Jan 1901; Crowned: Westminster Abbey 28 Jun 1838; She became queen at age 18. Her 63 year reign was the longest in the history of England. Her descendants, including 40 grandchildren, married into almost every royal family of Europe. With her personal example of honesty, patriotism and devotion to family life, Victoria became a living symbol of the solidity of the British Empire. The many years of her reign, often referred to as the Victorian age, witnessed the rise of middle class and were marked by a deeply conservative morality and intense nationalism. She was obsessed with the collecting of memorabilia of her family. She mourned her late husband, Albert, for more than 40 years.

Family of the Hohenzollerns. Full name: Friedrich Wilhelm Viktor Albert, Emperor of Germany and King of Prussia. (1888-1918). His policies helped bring about World War I. William's first major action as emperor was his dismissal in 1890 of the aged chancellor Prince Otto von Bismarck, who had been largely responsible for the growth of the German Empire under the emperor's grandfather, William I. The emperor believed that he ruled by divine right; foreign affairs interested him, but his policies were contradictory and confused. He professed deep friendship for Great Britain but drove that country into an alliance with France and Russia by his aggressive program of colonial, commercial, and naval expansion. He was buried with military honors by order of Adolf Hitler.
