The 19th century ended after december 31, 1900....same with the 20th century, though the media basicly rewrote this with their 'millenium' stuff. it is worth noting on this that there is no year 'zero'...after 1 bc, you have 1 ad.

I remember reading that the Queen Mother-- she was the Queen at the time-- was asked to leave London during the blitz and she refused. She wanted to stay in London as bombs were falling around Buckingham Palace. God Bless her!
