===United Kingdom=== {{Main|Republicanism in the United Kingdom}} Dissatisfaction with British rule led to a longer period of agitation in the early 19th century and failed republican revolutions in [[Rebellions of 1837β1838|Canada in the late 1830s]] and [[Young Ireland rebellion|Ireland in 1848]]. This led to the [[Treason Felony Act 1848|Treason Felony Act]] in 1848 which made it illegal to advocate for republicanism. Another "significant incarnation" of republicanism broke out in the late 19th century when [[Queen Victoria]] went into mourning and largely disappeared from public view after the death of her husband, [[Albert, Prince Consort|Prince Albert]]. This led to questions about whether or not the institution should continue, with politicians speaking in support of abolition. This ended when Victoria returned to public duties later in the century and regained significant public support. More recently, in the early 21st century, [[British Social Attitudes Survey|increasing dissatisfaction]] with the [[House of Windsor]], especially after the [[Death and state funeral of Elizabeth II|death of Elizabeth II]] in 2022, has led to public support for the monarchy reaching historical lows. As time goes on monarchy has improved its positions, against expectations of many republicans.
