    Queen Victoria. Ruled half the planet, an Empire upon which "the Sun never set".

    That's very impressive Sbf. Half the planet is BIG. Was she a benign benevolent ruler? Thank you for your reply and Happy Tuesday! :)

    Compared to her grandfather, she was a paragon (George III was barking mad). She was inclined to be a little autocratic, that's not uncommon for the period. This post was edited by Slartibartfast at August 29, 2018 5:11 AM MDT

    There was a movie titled "The Madness of King George" which I saw. Is that the same George? Thank you for your reply Sbf! :)

    I rather liked the actor who portrayed him. Wasn't he up for an oscar? Anyway a depiction of reality/history no matter how true and faithful it is cannot begin to touch having actually lived through it and experienced it! Thank you for your reply Sbf!  :)
