The Industrial Revolution dramatically changed European society—socially, politically, and economically. New technologies like the telephone, railroad, and light bulb, for example, changed the way Europeans lived and worked. We are going to try and instill some of that appreciation for technology by combining current day technology with historical information by using a BLOG.

Hey guys its time for another blog and that time is the Victorian era. The reaction to Queen Victoria has been that of Universal Acclaim. They have gone so far as to name our time the Victorian era. Everything is changing and I have adopted the new fashion with open arms. Women always wear there best so they wear some variation of a dress with the jewels they can afford. Men are always in some variation of a suit. we usually have long coats, matching pants, polished shoes, and a bucket hat(although a bucket hat is not required although they are insanely popular). Facial hair is extremely popular at this time so I have started to grow all that I can. Typically we would wear vests underneath our coats with a tie or bow-tie. Our pants are balloon style similar to what baseball players wear with high socks, just not as tight. If you don't have a pocket watch to hold in your pocket or hand, you could have a cane even if you didn't need one. An alternative was to have a cane and a pocket watch. Truly Yours, Ken.
