Empress Victoria of Germany

Empress Victoria of Germany was the eldest daughter of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. She married Prince Frederick of Prussia in 1858.

Her husband became Emperor in 1888, but died of throat cancer 99 days later, leaving Victoria a widow.

Her son, Kaiser Wilhelm II, resented her and kept her away from politics, ignoring her advice.

Victoria spent her later years in seclusion, and died of cancer in 1901, just months after her mother, Queen Victoria.
