There's a lot of confusion about eras in the fandom. People think everything older than 1920 is Victorian. I'm actually into what's called the Edwardian era, notably the 1780s when balloonomania was at it's height, just before revolutions erupted across Europe. I'm also into older aesthetics, medieval fantasy, Egypt, Grecoroman. I'm attracted to history in general and am always studying and reading books about interesting periods, so, that's where it all began!
