P.S. to Nick the DSM:

they neglected to add the implied qualification "... in the British Empire." I met an old-fashioned Southern gentleman who would bridle if you used the term Victorian to refer to anything in the US. His preferred term for the 19th century was "American Empire." However I must point out that we didn't really start our empire-building until 1898, when we clipped Spain for Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippine Islands.
