Warning, spoilers! This article explores the key elements of The Bridgerton Chronicle Season 2. If you have not seen it, do not read it.
The Bridgerton Chronicle is well known for its anachronisms and fantasies about historical reality. And that may be one of its main attractions. Everyone is well aware that there were not (or very few) people of color in the British aristocracy under English rule. And no one danced on the balls with Miley Cyrus, who was visited by the sound of a violin quartet.
But, shockingly, there were no corrections either! Yes, having a favorite Corgi Newton that fits so comfortably on the skirt of Katie (Simon Ashley) or Edvina Sharma (Charitra Chandran) or Anthony falling into the water (Jonathan Bailey) is a pure anachronism. Among many others.
This is Academician Stephanie Howard-Smith, a lecturer in animal history at York University, who teaches us through the site Slate. His published research includes essays on porcelain bugs, reactions to dog killings, and the family life of elite dogs in the British duplicate. XVIIIE Century. Only this.
The young woman was surprised to see Newton in the Netflix “historical” series: “Until recently, everything I knew about Corgi could be summed up in one sentence: a very lovely Welsh Shepherd dog worshiped by Queen Elizabeth II. But, interested in appearing in Newton Bridgeton, I went hunting for corgis in the historical records.“

Stephanie Howard-Smith said Corgi had been brought to Wales since the Middle Ages. Speculation suggests that they originated from small dogs in continental Europe brought to the UK by Vikings or Flemish immigrants, but today’s Corgis are genetically more closely related to other British Shepherd dogs, such as the Collies.
The word “corgi” in Welsh means dog, but not necessarily these short-legged little dogs that accompany the Queen of England today. To find further evidence of Corgi’s existence during the regency, Stephanie Howard-Smith read the newspaper advertisements of the time. The owners of the missing pets found them in the press and posted pictures of their furrows there.
But Corgi, as we know it today, is not on the dog list: “Newfoundland, Dalmatians, poodles, but not Corgi“, He wrote.”I also could not find a reliable image of an 18th century Welsh corg.E Or in the early 19th centuryE Century.“
There is no official trace of the present Corgi until 1925 with the classification of the heritage of dogs. The Kennel Club, the most important canine association in the United Kingdom (for short, the Dog Expert Club), today recognizes two distinct breeds of corgi: the Pembroke and the Cardigan.
And it took the Queen’s love for these lovely fur superstars to become.
