Directly, she contributed very little and was not a monarch who did anything notable for the arts, inner-city development or anything like that. It is often thought that the 'Victorian' (that is, very prudish) public morals of England at the time came about because Queen Victoria was a prude an insisted on others being prudes as well. In reality she was fun-loving (and sex-loving) while she was married and almost completely retired from public life after she became a widow. She only - and indirectly - may have contributed a little to England's policy decisions by giving her opinion to her prime ministers. But her influence on them was very limited. She once complained that one of her Prime Ministers adressed her "as if she was a public meeting".
