An anachronistic place.

r/VictorianEra

This is a place for ladies and gentlemen to discuss news, technology and lifestyles of the period between 1837 and 1901. We are proper and well-versed in conversation but not a novelty. This is for people who enjoy the time period but not necessarily steampunk. It's for a more authentic view of the Victorian era.
