Definition
of the Regency - Strictly speaking, the Regency period in English
history began in 1811 and ended when King George III died in 1820. However,
George III's illness had almost led to a regency much earlier, in 1788.
This period, from 1788 to 1830, is often called the "extended Regency."
Etiquette

were the order of the day during the Regency period. The rules and codes
of behavior for men and women were a part of every day life. Paying calls,
even smoking governed by rules. Short.
