Pax Britannica's start and end is debateable but its start is generally considered to be in 1815 at the end of the Napoleonic Wars at the Congress of Vienna and lasted until the outbreak of the First World War in 1914. This era was the era of Britain's Imperial Century where it had unchallenged militarial, economic and industrial dominance with dominance over international relations for 100 years. This period is considered by some to be the period that Britain was a Hyper-power (a state dominant of all others with no apparent challenge; i.e. one step above a superpower).

But long story cut short Pax Britannica lasted from 1815-1914. So a century.

The Pax Britannica lasted from the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815 until the outbreak of World War I in 1914, so it spanned approximately 99 years. It was a period of relative peace and stability enforced by British naval power and colonization, during which Britain dominated global trade and exerted significant influence on world affairs.
