The 19th century (January 1, 1801 – December 31, 1900) was a period in history marked by the collapse of the Spanish, First and Second French, Chinese,[1] Holy Roman and Mughal empires. This paved the way for the growing influence of the British Empire, Russian Empire, German Empire, the United States and the Empire of Japan, spurring military conflicts but also advances in science and exploration.
