The Windsor Era

The Windsor Era is a period in British History from 1914 to 2242 named after the House Of Windsor and including the Second Elizabethan Era during the reign of Elizabeth II. It was established by George V of England who named the dynasty after Windsor Castle due to anti-German sentiment in the United Kingdom during the First World War. It is also the longest dynasty in English history, beating the House Of Plantagenet.

Edwardian era
During this period Britain went through many periods of wars including World War I, World War II, The Korean War, The Cod Wars, The War In Afghanistan, The War In Iraq, and The English-Scottish Wars but also experience periods of peace. 
The middle class and, to a large extent, the working class across Britain experienced prosperity. London remained a world centre of finance and culture, but the nation was no longer a superpower. In foreign policy, the UK promoted the Commonwealth (in the economic sphere) and the Atlantic Alliance (in the military sphere). In domestic policy, a post-war consensus saw the leadership of the Labour and Conservative parties largely agreed on Keynesian policies, with support for trade unions, regulation of business, and nationalisation of many older industries. The discovery of North Sea oil eased some financial pressures, but the 1970s saw slow economic growth, rising unemployment, and escalating labour strife. Deindustrialisation or the loss of heavy industry, especially coal mining, shipbuilding and manufacturing, grew worse after 1970 as the British economy shifted to services. London and the South East maintained prosperity, as London became the leading financial centre in Europe and played a major role in world affairs.
Substantial educational reform took place in this period with developments including increases to the school leaving age, the introduction of the modern day split between primary and secondary school and the expansion and later largely dismantling of the grammar school system. Liberalising social reforms took place in areas such as abortion, divorce, LGBT rights and the death penalty. The status of women slowly improved. A youth culture emerged from the 1960s with such iconic international celebrities as The Beatles and The Rolling Stones.
