The Edwardian era (1901-1910) was a period in the United Kingdom marked by King Edward VII’s reign, characterized by relative peace, prosperity, and social change. It followed the Victorian period and featured elegant fashion, technological innovations, and cultural development. Society was more relaxed than before, with a focus on leisure, arts, and improved living standards for many. Despite these advances, underlying social tensions and disparities existed, eventually leading to significant changes in the years that followed. Overall, it was a time of transition from 19th-century tradition to new modern ideas.
