Description: Never in the history of imperial expansion has there ever been anything that compared to the British Empire at its height in the days of Queen Victoria. In size the Empire was supreme, ruling the largest area and the largest number of people. The circumstances surrounding its acquisition were haphazard; its motives and benefits mixed. The residual effects of the Empire upon the modern world are incalculable. This course will examine these aspects of the Victorian Empire and compare them with imperial activities of the present day.
