Gap

Shouldn't The Restoration be in this box too? Otherwise the time of Charles II is somewhat missed out. The precedent is set by the way the Regency is included, and indeed by the way that some of the other dates overlap. Any objections? – Kieran T (talk) 15:59, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agree: I think the gap should be bridged.
Why does the template stop at Edward VII? Suggestions for continuation:
World War I 1914-18
Interwar period 1918-39
World War II 1939-45
Modern Britain 1945- (BartBassist (talk) 17:27, 22 November 2009 (UTC))[reply]
Another way to bridge the gap from Edwardian or Great War to WWII:
Roaring Twenties (1920-1929)
Depression era (1929-1939)
In Britain in particular, I think the Roaring Twenties apply more than they do in the US. Edwardian lasts technically to 1910, but can include up to Titanic (1912), WWI (1914), or the end of the Great War (1918), so I suppose you need to know where you end it to determine what comes after.80.101.113.45 (talk) 19:10, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't it be: Periods in UK history, because we are talking about the UK not only England —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.54.49.174 (talk) 17:24, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Elizabethan Era

It's missing... 75.4.148.110 (talk) 23:13, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at the source of the template, it's clear it was once present and was then removed by someone. I just took the liberty of restoring it. Shanegamer13 (talk) 04:06, 29 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
