How did Queen Victoria's life influence others?

Queen Victoria was only 18 when she became the Queen of England in 1937. At this time, many people resented Royalty and/ or having a royal family. However, Victoria was able to change people's views in favor of her, mainly by the growth and sustainment of the British Empire. This was also accompanied by her long and stable reign, that ensured great advancements in both technology and living standards. It was during Queen Victoria's reign that England began to change the world. Five years after becoming queen, she banned all women and children from working in mines, which allowed the children to be cared for properly. Queen Victoria also encouraged education, and passed a law that ment every child had to go to school. Sending children to school was too expesive for many families, so education was free of charge.
