Victoria married Albert in 1840. The pair had 9
children, who went on to marry in to royalty
across Europe. The Victorian era was one of
dramatic change and development in industry,
science, culture, and politics. Victoria entered a
protracted period of mourning following Albert's
death in 1861, lasting many years.
