Biography[]
Victoria was ruler of the British Empire during the period when electroid was discovered and the first leviathans were introduced.
In 1887, Jackie Fisher was appointed aide-de-camp to Her Majesty, Fisher already having formed a friendship with Edward, Prince of Wales and his wife Alexandra. Fisher was tasked with forming what became known as the E Committee to investigate the technology of electroid-driven flight. This led to the debut of the HML Leviathan at the Greater Britain Exhibition. [1][2]
At the 1891 Naval Review, Her Majesty was incensed to see that the French Republic had a fleet of these leviathans, while Britain had none. She fired Sir Richard Hamilton as First Sea Lord and created the office of Third Sky Lord for Fisher. She ordered the creation of the Royal Sky Fleet.[3][4]
She died in 1901 and was succeeded by her son, Edward VII.
