How Quickly Does Albendazole Work?

[Chickendoodle]

Can anyone in the US help with a question that has been perplexing me on and off (sad I know)

 

I do a lot of reading and houses of a particular age in the US are generally referred to as "Victorian". Why is this?

 

Queen Victoria, as far as I know, didn't have any links with the States so I wonder why this has crept into the language.

 

Is it a certain style of house you call Victorian or any houses built during the 19th Century?

 

Every time I read of someone living in a Victorian house in the US I wonder and would love to know so that I can stop wondering!

I found this helpful bit of information on Wikpedia. Hope it helps.

 

 

Victorian house styles include Second Empire, Queen Anne, Stick (and Eastlake Stick), Shingle-style, Richardsonian Romanesque, and others.

Although the general public often incorrectly refers to a Victorian era house as a Victorian "style" house, Victorian era refers to a time period and not to a style. Although architectural historians generally agree that there are about eight primary architectural styles prominent in the United States and Canada during the Victorian era, Victorian-era residential architecture in the United States and Canada was a procession of styles borrowed from every country and every era in history.

Marky babe has got me worked out anyway and I didn't even ask a question!

But back to the houses - my Canadian cousin has a Victorian style house.
