Queen Victoria (Alexandrina Victoria, 24 May 1819 – 22 January 1901) reigned over the UsefulNotes/UnitedKingdom and its [[UsefulNotes/TheBritishEmpire empire]], the largest the world has ever seen. She was a hugely important figure, causing sweeping changes in the history of many parts of the world, and inspiring her people. She was not simply a [[GrandeDame prudish old woman with no sense of humour]], and in fact [[BeamMeUpScotty probably never said, "We are not amused"]].[[note]][[Website/{{Wikipedia}} That Other Wiki]] even has a photo on her article they note as "Victoria amused", which explains that she likely never said it. The Other Wiki also states she denied ever saying it.[[/note]]

Her reign was equally momentous, occupying nearly the entire period of the Industrial Revolution, from 1837 to 1901, and being the longest in British history until 9 September 2015, when her great-great-granddaughter UsefulNotes/ElizabethII surpassed her.

She fell head over heels in love with, [[note]]and never fell out of love with either as long as he lived - her diary entries about, and letters to, him are often strikingly passionate, and give the lie to the myth that she didn't approve of sex[[/note]] and married, her handsome first cousin Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, a small principality in what is now [[UsefulNotes/TheSixteenLandsOfDeutschland Thuringia]], Germany, in 1840 and due to her passionate affection for him, remained pregnant for a large part of their marriage [[note]]After having her first child, the queen noted the opinion that newborn babies were ugly, and also disliked breast-feeding, never thinking of doing it herself. She went on to have eight more; all nine children, even the one with hemophilia, made it to adulthood. She was thrilled to have chloroform for the births of the later ones; when church officials suggested it was improper; she regally told them where they could go. Victoria was also discovered to have had a prolapsed uterus after her death, suggesting that Princess Beatrice would have been her last child even had she not been widowed; while Victoria undoubtedly would have been pleased by the thought, it's a very extreme method of birth control. [[/note]] until Albert died of typhoid fever in 1861 [[note]]Albert's health had long been deteriorating and there is a lot of modern debate about whether it truly was typhoid and if he had something underlying like cancer or Crohn's disease, but no firm answers yet[[/note]], only 42, leaving Victoria stricken with grief. She never remarried, and indeed she spent the rest of her reign wearing only mourning colours and only rarely making public appearances and even more rarely living at Buckingham Palace;[[note]]Allegedly, she kept EmptyBedroomGrieving going for the remainder of her life -- ''forty years.''[[/note]] this earned her the not-entirely-complimentary nickname "the Widow of Windsor." As a result, republican sentiment in Britain was at its height, to the extent that some felt the monarchy was going to be abolished sooner or later; fortunately (for the monarchy at any rate), the Prince of Wales, and future Edward VII, "Bertie" had a better understanding of public relations and charmed the socks off the whole country, managed to make a miraculous recovery from his own bout of typhoid and dealt a swift blow to republicanism, and partied the socks off the whole upper crust.[[note]]He also ''shagged'' the socks off... anyone female and willing, basically, but the former three seem to have cancelled this latter one out; most of his affairs took place in the later 19th century, a time when discreet love affairs and sexual encounters were one of the favorite pastimes of aristocratic and well-to-do Europeans, and weren't seen as anything out of place or unusual in his social circles.[[/note]]

Victoria wanted every male British monarch after her to have a double-barrelled regnal name of "Albert [Something]", starting with her son, whom she expected would be known as "Albert Edward". However, "Bertie" decided that he would better honour his father's name if he left it to stand alone, and took the name "Edward VII". Now there is an opposite tradition: Any monarch with the given name "Albert" would ''not'' use that name, out of respect for the Prince Consort's singular position--as shown by George VI, whose given name was Albert and who was known publicly as Prince Albert, Duke of York, and privately as Bertie, until he took the throne (at which point his family still called him "Bertie"). However, there is a low-key tradition where each monarch/heir apparent who has a second son gives that son "Albert" as one of his names (if not necessarily his primary given name). [[note]]To wit: George V's second son was the aforementioned George VI, full Christian name Albert Frederick Arthur George; Elizabeth II's second son is Andrew Albert Christian Edward (Prince Andrew); and Charles III's second son is Henry Charles Albert David (Prince Harry). Prince William, however, bucked the tradition by naming his second son Louis Arthur Charles. However, Prince William being young and apparently quite fertile, he may yet give the name to a later son if he has one.[[/note]]

Though she never stopped mourning for Prince Albert, she did to some extent move on eventually. Though her children and the upper class of Britain largely wished she ''hadn't'', because her close friendship (widely speculated to also be romantic) with her Scottish servant John Brown was widely seen as scandalous. Not only was he a commoner, he was seen as almost a barbarian for his complete lack of concern for their difference in social class. Victoria on the other hand seemed to find this refreshing. There were even rumors that she secretly married him, though most historians discount this.[[note]]Some conclude that if Victoria ''had'' remarried, even to someone so "inappropriate", she would've been headstrong enough not to keep it secret.[[/note]] When Brown died in 1883 (at only 56), Victoria proceeded to scandalize the upper class again because her new favorite servant was Mohammed Abdul Karim, an Indian Muslim who taught Victoria the Hindustani language[[note]]today known as Hindi-Urdu[[/note]] after she was given the rank Empress of India and wished to be able to speak with her new subjects. While there was absolutely no hint of romance by Karim, the simple fact that he was [[ValuesDissonance not white and not Christian]], as well as genuinely taking advantage of his position and Victoria's age, meant that he was seen as an even more inappropriate friend for the Queen.

She had a famously good working relationship – to the point it's also been viewed as quasi-romantic – with Prime Minister UsefulNotes/BenjaminDisraeli (who arranged for her to become Empress of India)[[note]] if you're keeping score here, Victoria definitely [[HasAType Had A Type]], in that every man she got thoroughly involved with and emotionally attached to was an outsider in traditional British upper-crust society, even her original beloved, disaffected, and scandalous [[UsefulNotes/ViscountMelbourne Lord M]][[/note]], and to a lesser extent with his eventual successor as Conservative Party leader, the UsefulNotes/MarquessOfSalisbury. By contrast, she had a famously ''bad'' working relationship with Disraeli's (and later Salisbury's) Liberal Party rival UsefulNotes/WilliamGladstone, in part because of his manner (she famously complained of him that he spoke to her "as if [she] were a public meeting")[[note]] One of Victoria's more eminent biographers, Lady Longford, posits that ''Gladstone'' actually had something of a crush on the Queen, viewing her as a woman he earnestly desired to reform, in the same manner as his more controversial work with prostitutes; if so, whether Victoria sensed this or not, [[AbhorrentAdmirer she was still manifestly unamused]][[/note]], and also because of his support for Irish home rule. The end result was that when Gladstone retired in 1894, she disregarded his advice to appoint Lord Spencer[[note]]Incidentally, [[UsefulNotes/TheHouseOfWindsor Diana]]'s half-great-great-uncle[[/note]] as his successor and instead appointed UsefulNotes/TheEarlOfRosebery, Gladstone's unpopular foreign secretary, in what many felt was a transparent ploy to help Salisbury return to power. This naturally inflamed those who considered it unacceptable political interference on her part, but if so then it had the desired result -- Rosebery's government lasted barely a year, and Salisbury returned as PM following a LandslideElection, with him remaining in the office for the rest of her life (he stood down the year after her death). To put the icing on the cake, she denied Gladstone the earldom traditionally given to retired [=PMs=] who did not already have peerages. (As a result, it's pure bad luck that Gladstone didn't get an earldom; the future Edward VII liked and respected Gladstone as much as his mother had hated him, and if Gladstone had lived long enough to see the Prince of Wales become King, it's likely he would have become Earl of Somewhere shortly after the new monarch's accession.)

Victoria was the first monarch to be photographed (the earliest known photo of her dates to c. 1845), and the first to be recorded, though no verifiable audio of her is known to have survived. A popular (and nearly indecipherable) clip circulating the internet which is claimed to be of her speaking in 1888 hasn't actually been ''proven'' to be her speaking. While she did get dumpy in her middle and old age, as seen in the photo above, she was quite attractive in a dainty manner in her youth, as seen in paintings of her from the 1830's and 1840's.

The factor IX deficiency, also known as hemophilia B, which plagued the royal houses of Europe in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, was likely the result of a spontaneous mutation in her genome[[note]]such mutations are more common in the offspring of older men, and her father was 50 when she was conceived[[/note]]. It was spread by fact that she had so many children, and how they married, giving her the nickname "Grandmother of Europe" (during UsefulNotes/WorldWarI, the king of the United Kingdom, the German emperor, the tsarina of Russia, the queens of Norway, Spain, Greece, and Romania, and the crown princess of Sweden were all her grandchildren). Two of her daughters were confirmed carriers, and one of her sons suffered the disease[[note]]she had four and a 50% chance of passing it on, so only one of them getting it was actually a stroke of luck[[/note]]. This went on to have [[UsefulNotes/RomanovsAndRevolutions major implications]]. Hemophilia has been associated with RoyalInbreeding, but is not actually a result of it -- Victoria's husband Albert being her cousin had nothing to do with it.[[note]]The classic inbreeding fear -- both parents are unknowing carriers of a disease, which then manifests in their children -- is much more unlikely with hemophilia. Hemophilia is a sex-linked trait, meaning only women can be carriers for it. Men either outright have the disease themselves, or don't carry it at all, meaning that a hemophiliac has to be cautious about marrying a woman who's a carrier or risk passing the actual disease to his ''daughters'' rather than simply making them automatic carriers (Victoria's granddaughter Alice of Albany was automatically a carrier due to her ''father'' Prince Leopold. She went on to have a hemophiliac son, Rupert, who also sadly died from it. Her brother Charles Edward was of course completely healthy) regardless of their mother... but it's a very rare scenario and still has nothing to do with inbreeding.[[/note]]

Thanks to Victoria's above status as the grandmother of Europe, UsefulNotes/WorldWarI features [[https://youtu.be/oXmMT4sETu8?si=Xhy-N26rQC37rY-y a rather unusual familial aspect]]; of the superpowers involved, two (the British Empire and UsefulNotes/ImperialGermany) were led by her grandchildren, King George V and Kaiser UsefulNotes/WilhelmII, while [[UsefulNotes/TsaristRussia Russia]] was led by UsefulNotes/{{Tsar|Tsar Autocrats}} UsefulNotes/NicholasII, who was married to her granddaughter, Alexandra. Further adding to the slightly convoluted network of connections is the fact that all three leaders were equally descended from George II of the United Kingdom, one of Victoria's own ancestors, thus making the three ''fifth cousins'' of each other!

Many, many books have been written about her and [[UsefulNotes/VictorianBritain the era named after her]]. These tend to be set when they were written, either in VictorianLondon or in the colonies. Also the default timeframe for English language {{Steampunk}} works.

!!Queen Victoria has been seen in the following works:

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:Anime and Manga]]
* In ''Manga/BlackButler'', main character Ciel Phantomhive directly serves as her "watchdog" as part of his family's role and does what she wants to protect the country, essentially serving as England's black-ops. The manga version has her manservant John Brown follow her around with an Albert hand puppet to calm her down whenever her mourning overtakes her.
* She is a supporting character in ''Manga/MoriartyThePatriot'' where she orders Mycroft Holmes to retrieve the documents that contained the empire's top secret and in "The Final Problem" arc where she and Sherlock made a deal to lessen the House of Lords' superiority over the House of Commons after the detective accepts her offer to capture the Lord of Crimes, William James Moriarty.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Comic Books]]
* ''ComicBook/FromHell'' by Creator/AlanMoore gives her a rare HistoricalVillainUpgrade, as the one who ordered the Jack the Ripper murders as a cover-up for a dalliance with the Crown Prince.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Films — Animated]]
* Queen Mousetoria in ''WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective'' is the mouse counterpart of her.
* Features as the main antagonist in ''WesternAnimation/ThePiratesInAnAdventureWithScientists''.

* She is featured in the animated prequel of 2004's ''Film/VanHelsing'' titled ''[[WesternAnimation/VanHelsingTheLondonAssignment The London Assignment]]'', where she kidnapped by [[Literature/TheStrangeCaseOfDrJekyllAndMrHyde Dr. Henry Jekyll]] who has a VillainousCrush on her (at least on her younger self) and plans to make her immortal with a youth potion created from [[PoweredByAForsakenChild the souls of his freshly killed victims]]. She is rescued by the titular protagonist, for whom she briefly develops some romantic feelings - even kissing him at the end.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Films — Live-Action]]
!!!'''In General:'''
* In Australian and Kiwi cinema, Victoria is usually the unseen GreaterScopeVillain in whose name the EvilBrit colonialist officials oppress the poor Irish settlers and natives. Examples: ''Film/MadDogMorgan'', ''[[Film/NedKelly1970 Ned Kelly]]'' (1970), ''[[Film/NedKelly2003 Ned Kelly]]'' (2003), ''{{Film/Utu}}'', and ''Film/CaptainThunderbolt''. There's also ''Film/PicnicAtHangingRock'' where one scene contrasts Mrs. Appleyard's breakdown and a [[RuleOfSymbolism portrait of Queen Victoria glowering stoically from the wall]].
!!!'''By Movie:'''
* Appears in ''two'' Creator/JackieChan movies - played by Creator/KathyBates in ''Film/AroundTheWorldInEightyDays2004'', and Gemma Jones in ''Film/ShanghaiKnights''.
* The [[AnimatedCreditsOpening animated sequences]] of ''Film/TheChargeOfTheLightBrigade'' feature satirical representations of her and Prince Albert. Notably, they appear as angels dancing in Heaven to celebrate the British capture of Sevastopol and [[ItMakesSenseInContext eat a cake shaped like the Kremlin]]. It's a strange film.
* A very attractive young Queen Victoria appears in ''Film/TheGreatestShowman'', and definitely has a sense of humor. She's played by Scottish actress Creator/GayleRankin.
* She appears for a few minutes, played by a quietly warmhearted Beryl Mercer, in ''Film/TheLittlePrincess1939'' with Creator/ShirleyTemple.
* The 1998 film ''Film/MrsBrown'' starring Dame Creator/JudiDench as the Queen mourning the death of Prince Albert and her friendship/romance with her unconventional Scottish servant John Brown.
* In 2017, Dench reprised the role in ''Film/VictoriaAndAbdul'', which is about the relationship between Victoria and her Indian servant Abdul Karim.
* The 1950 film ''Film/TheMudlark'' is about a street urchin who finds a medallion of Vicki while scavenging. A friend tells him she's "the mother of all England", so he sets out to meet her. She's a HerosMuse in this, and played by an almost unrecognizable ''Creator/IreneDunne.''
* The 1966 movie ''Film/TheWrongBox'' begins showing members of a {{Tontine}} dying off one by one over the decades - one by the hand of Queen Victoria, who is knighting him and uses the sword a bit too forcefully. "Oh! ...We are dreadfully sorry."
* The film ''Film/TheYoungVictoria'' is based on, well... [[YoungFutureFamousPeople a young Victoria]]. She's played by Creator/EmilyBlunt.
* The film ''Film/{{Dolittle}}'' features a young and attractive Victoria (played by Creator/JessieBuckley) falling severely ill and requiring a cure from the fruit of the [[FantasticFlora Eden Tree]], which Dr. Dolittle has to obtain himself.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Literature]]
* Queen Victoria is married to {{Dracula}} in ''Literature/AnnoDracula'', which takes place in a what-if scenario where he survived the events of the novel and proceeded to take power by storming Buckingham Palace and turning Victoria into his vampire bride. She is kept around as PuppetQueen, locked up as a prisoner inside her own palace while Dracula rules England as the tyrannical Prince-Consort. [[spoiler:The main protagonist delivers her from her torment by killing her with a silver knife and effectively dissolving Dracula's claim to the throne]].
* She appears briefly in a non-speaking role during one of Nate's flashbacks in ''Literature/TheHellequinChronicles'', before he gets involved in the Ripper killings. She's noted as not being particularly well-disposed to Nate, or magical beings in general, because of the way Avalon controlled things behind the scenes ([[spoiler: later books would portray this as more than just understandable resentment]]), but rather pleased with him because he'd managed to retrieve a treasured memento of her late husband.
* A recurring character in the ''Literature/{{Flashman}}'' series, where she's portrayed as an amiable ditz.
* A child Victoria makes an appearance under the name "Drina" in the GaslampFantasy ''[[Literature/SorceryAndCecelia The Missing Magician]]''. It turns out that as she is of RoyalBlood, she is immune to ley line magic.
* Makes the occasional appearance in ''Literature/TheParasolProtectorate''.
* She's heavily implied to be a figure in the Literature/SherlockHolmes story "The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans." At the end of the story, after the mystery has been resolved, Holmes travels to Windsor and returns with an extremely valuable emerald tie-pin. When Watson inquires as to where he got it, Holmes will say only that it was a gift from "a certain gracious lady." Watson strongly suspects that it was the Queen herself.
* One of ''Literature/TheRoyalDiaries'' books is ''Victoria: May Blossom of Britannia,'' and is presented as the secret diary of Queen Victoria when she is in her late preteens/early teens, around the time of William IV's accession. (In fact, the [[WhamEpisode wham entry]] for her is when she realizes she's his successor.)
** Similarly, Jean Plaidy's novel ''Victoria, Victorious'' is a fictionalized account of Victoria's life told from the point of view of the adult Queen writing her memoirs.
** Incidentally, in real life Victoria really was an obsessive journal writer, even by the standards of the times. Her daily journals cover a 69-year period and total 121 volumes (that would mean that Victoria wrote about two thousand words a day--i.e., roughly the daily output of a professional author). She even published some of her diaries during her lifetime; ''Leaves From a Journal of a Life in the Highlands,'' which was about the royal family's visits to their private Scottish estate of Balmoral, was extremely popular in its day. She was also a diligent correspondent and some books of her letters, such as those exchanged with her eldest daughter after she married the Crown Prince of Prussia, have been published as well.
* ''Literature/BlackElkSpeaks'': Late in the book, Black Elk and some of his companions meet Queen Victoria. Black Elk describes [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname "Grandmother England"]] as one of the kindest women he ever met (depressingly, Black Elk notes that she [[TokenGoodTeammate was one of only four kind-hearted white people he ever met in his entire life]]).
-->''When she came to where we were, her wagon stopped and she stood up. Then all those people stood up and roared and bowed to her; [[KneelBeforeFrodo but she bowed to us]].''
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
* Vicki and Albert begin to appear in episode 3 of the 1978 ITV miniseries ''Disraeli: Portrait of a Romantic'', played by Rosemary Leach and Jeremy Longhurst. Disraeli is telling his wife that facing the royal couple is like -- cutting to our first view of them as Dizzy continues in voiceover -- "looking into a double-barreled shotgun."
* ''Series/DoctorWho'': Guest-starred in [[Recap/DoctorWhoS28E2ToothAndClaw "Tooth and Claw"]], played by Pauline Collins, depicted as courteous, stern, fairly good-humoured, and downright formidable. She reveals that after previous assassination attempts, she has taken to carrying a loaded revolver. The leader of the evil {{Warrior Monk}}s sneers at her when she draws on him, referring to her as "woman." Her response? [[PreMortemOneLiner "The proper form of address is 'Your Majesty'."]] A running gag in the episode is Rose and the Doctor doing a SideBet about getting her to say "We are not amused." At the end of the episode, it gains a darker twist, as she knights them... and promptly has "Sir Doctor of TARDIS" and "Dame Rose of the Powell Estate" banished, primarily for treating the whole thing like some sort of game, harshly rebuking them for their glib behaviour while people were dying horribly all around them. In direct response to the events of the episode, she founds the Series/{{Torchwood}} Institute. A later episode, [[Recap/DoctorWhoS36E9EmpressOfMars "Empress of Mars"]], includes a [[CallBack portrait]] of the version of Victoria seen in this episode.
** She continues to appear in the ''Torchwood'' audios, this time played by Rowena Cooper, where she is shown getting more directly involved with several of the Institute's cases. While initially portrayed as a badass with a greater sense of humour than on TV she is also shown as more callous. Later episodes bring out even less sympathetic traits, such as her unrepentant complicity in the colonisation of India, through her relationship with Duleep Singh. Then there was the little fact of her hand in [[spoiler: creating The Committee of Erebus]].
* The series ''Series/{{Victoria}}'', which follows her early years on the throne and her [[MayDecemberRomance May-December]] relationship with the Prime Minister, Lord Melbourne (with whom, it was long rumoured, Victoria was in love), and her romance and marriage to Prince Albert. Initially announced as a miniseries for broadcast in 2016, it was popular enough in its first few episodes that a second series was quickly commissioned for 2017, followed by a third for 2018. Creator/JennaColeman portrays the queen from the age of 18 onward.
* Victoria and Albert naturally appear in the 1975 [[Creator/{{ITV}} ATV]] miniseries Series/EdwardTheSeventh (also called ''Edward the King''). Victoria, played by Creator/AnnetteCrosbie in a MediaNotes/{{BAFTA}}-winning role, appears in 10 of 13 episodes and the first focuses largely on her (the title character being unborn, a baby, or small child for most of it).
* ''Series/{{Blackadder}}'s Christmas Carol'' has a short, chubby, highly-sexed Victoria and a doofus Albert (played by Creator/MiriamMargolyes and Creator/JimBroadbent, respectively) singing Christmas carols, exchanging gifts, and just in general being a HappilyMarried couple celebrating Christmas.
* ''Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus''
** The "Wacky Queen" sketch features Queen Victoria acting out silly hijinks from a turn-of-the-century silent film comedy, like getting UsefulNotes/WilliamGladstone to [[GardenHoseSquirtSurprise squirt himself with a garden hose]].
** Another sketch, the "Queen Victoria Handicap", is a horse-racing spoof in which all eight participants are named, and are, Queen Victoria.
** The "Michael Ellis" episode features Queen Victoria, played by Creator/MichaelPalin, showing up to complain about a Victorian poetry competition which appears to largely consist of poems about [[ItMakesSenseInContext ants]], abruptly shifting from an English accent to a German one early on in her tirade.
* She was the #18 "Greatest Briton" on ''Series/OneHundredGreatestBritons''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Radio]]
* ''Radio/BleakExpectations:'' Briefly appears at the end of series 3, knighting protagonist Pip Bin for saving Britain from zombies ([[ItMakesSenseInContext long story]]), only to be abducted mid-ceremony by BigBad Mister Benevolent. Series 4 begins with Pip trying to rescue her, a process that takes years (on account of Pip being an idiot), leaving Britain in disarray, especially at Christmas, when there's an awkward silence when there should be the Queen's Speech. She also gets a mention in the framing sequence, set decades later, having caused a traffic jam getting stuck on Oxford Street.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Theatre]]
* The play ''Victoria Regina'' (1934) with Helen Hayes as Victoria and 24-year-old Creator/VincentPrice making his acting (and Broadway) debut as [[http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9LpVRn3zW_c/TjFtTFUW2XI/AAAAAAAADHc/HlJeDUr1v6k/s1600/vr2a.jpg Albert]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Video Games]]
* ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedSyndicate:'' Appears at the end and in the post-game, sending the Fryes on a few missions, until Evie says that the Assassins cannot condone the Empire, and asks her (''[[RefugeInAudacity to her face no less]]'') if she might give up her imperial desires. The game also notes her dislike of Gladstone.
* She is a playable leader for England in ''VideoGame/{{Civilization}} IV'' and ''VI''. Her character is fleshed out more in the latter, where her general goal is to have a presence on every continent on the map and so likes civilizations that share continents with her and dislikes those who don't. Her "We are not amused" misquote comes up when you declare war on her -- she certainly doesn't look it as she delivers that line.
* In ''VideoGame/FallenLondon'', while her actual ''name'' never comes up ([[TheScottishTrope because speaking it is forbidden]]), it's clear that the Traitor Empress (or "Her Enduring Majesty" to loyalists) is/was Queen Victoria. She sold London to AlienSpaceBats and their BazaarOfTheBizarre in exchange for Prince Albert's (now, similarly, known only as "the Consort") health.
* In ''VideoGame/SunlessSkies'', two sequels later, she's now become Her Renewed Majesty, and revitalized London as a whole into a proper, interstellar empire. She's also become a TimeMaster thanks to exploiting the failing laws of reality, which has [[GodEmperor gone to her head a teensy bit]]...
* She's the namesake of the ''VideoGame/VictoriaAnEmpireUnderTheSun'' series. In ''Victoria 3'', her ascension to the British throne is mechanically important as Hanover would become independent (and take some German minors along with it out of the British customs union) after the succession.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Visual Novels]]
* The SteamPunk visual novel ''VisualNovel/CodeRealize'' takes place in an alternate version of Victoria's Britain, and Victoria herself plays a key role in the plot, particularly in Victor Literature/{{Frankenstein}}'s route.
* ''VisualNovel/TheGreatAceAttorney'': She appears in the final case of the second game [[spoiler: to strip [[BigBad Mael Strongheart]] of his position of Lord Chief Justice of England]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Webcomics]]
* Victoria featured twice in ''Webcomic/HarkAVagrant'', [[http://harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=156 first in a parody of]] ''Film/TheGraduate'' (with Albert as MrsRobinson) and then [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=187 here]], mainly concentrating on her love for Albert.

[[folder:Western Animation]]
* Appears in ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' episode ''Last Exit to Springfield'' during Lisa's dream sequence, where a large photo cut-out of her makes the Music/TheBeatles' submarine crash.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Multiple Media]]
* The Queen has appeared in the ''Literature/HorribleHistories'' franchise.
** She gets two musical numbers in [[Series/HorribleHistories the TV series]]; one with her butler called "British Things", where she finds out that most of the things from her empire don't originate from the British Isles, and a love duet with her husband called "Vic and Al", where they sing about their passionate devotion to each other.
** She appears on "This Is Your Life" in [[AudioPlay/HorribleHistories the audio-book series]] and reunites with her royal subjects, her dead husband from a video call, and the Grim Reaper. Throughout, she is portrayed as the grumpy stereotype that everyone associates her with, and her catchphrase being "We are '''not''' amused".
** She had her own book dedicated to her in the original book series and her own episode in season 6 of the TV series. Both take pains to point out various facts about her beyond the stereotype, such as her actually being a very sensual woman despite the stereotypical prudery of the age[[note]]the series episode points out she presented her husband with erotic artwork as gifts to add to their large mutual collection[[/note]]. Both also claim she did say "We are not amused", but only once in her life, and the story differs between the two versions[[note]]the book claims she said it when an unlucky official showed off his "humorous impersonation of Queen Victoria", which amounted to draping a white handkerchief over his head and puffing out his cheeks, whilst the episode claims she said it in regards a very boring opera that she attended[[/note]].
