Queen Victoria Of Great Britain.

Education. Ascension to the throne.
Queen Victoria ruled 64 years out of 82 lived. That she had the honor to be the Queen of great Britain, she learned at the age of 12. Victoria would never have taken possession of the Royal crown, whether the numerous offspring of George III more richly heirs. However, the monarch's daughters and sons were either childless or never married with illegitimate children. Despite the fact that in 1818 just three sons of George III urgently married and tried to procreate, "lucky" only one of them – Duke Edward of Kent, who had a daughter Victoria, the future Queen.
The little Princess was brought up in great rigor: she was never left unattended, she was forbidden to communicate with peers. Over time, the supervision of the mother, the German Princess Victoria Maria Luisa, and her favorite John Conroy (Victoria's elderly father died 8 months after her birth) increasingly burdened the heiress. Become Queen, she alienated the pair from his throne. Except for mother's education, Victoria was engaged in a strict governess Louise Lecen that the girl listened to everything and loved despite her tough personality. For a long time, the former teacher retained her influence on the throne until Victoria's legal husband, albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, removed her from the young Queen.
