BELLE ÉPOQUE
The Belle Époque is conventionally dated from the end of the Franco-Prussian War in 1871 to the outbreak of World War I in 1914. It was a period characterised by optimism, regional peace, economic prosperity and technological, scientific and cultural innovations. The Belle Époque was named in retrospect, when it began to be considered a golden age, in contrast to the events of World War I.
