Question

Queen Victoria
was Queen Victoria empress of Indians

Answer
Hello Sahak.

Firstly apologies for the delay in answering.

Queen Victoria was indeed Empress of India. She assumed the title on 1st of May 1876 and held it until her death in 1901. Her successors to the British throne also succeeded to the title of India. British monarchs were therefore also Emperors of India until Independence was gained in 1948. The Emperors succeeding Victoria were therefore.

Edward VII (1901-10)
George V (1910-1936)
Edward VIII (1936)
George VI (1936-1948)

I hope you have found this useful
