The Georgian period takes its name from the four Kings George of the period 1714–1830, including King George IV. The British Regency strictly lasted only from 1811 to 1820, but the term is applied to architecture more widely, both before 1811 and after 1820;<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> the next reign, of <a href="/wiki/William_IV" title="William IV">William IV</a> from 1830 to 1837, has not been given its own stylistic descriptor. Regency architecture is especially distinctive in its houses, and also marked by an increase in the use of a range of eclectic <a href="/wiki/Revivalism_(architecture)" title="Revivalism (architecture)">Revival styles</a>, from Gothic through Greek to Indian, as alternatives to the main neoclassical stream. </p><p>The opening years of the style were marked by greatly reduced levels of building because of the <a href="/wiki/Napoleonic_Wars" title="Napoleonic Wars">Napoleonic Wars</a>, which saw government spending on building eliminated, shortages of imported timber, and high taxes on other building materials.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1810 there was a serious financial crisis, though the only major <a href="/wiki/Asset_class" class="mw-redirect" title="Asset class">asset class</a> not to lose value was houses, at least in London, mainly because the low level of recent building had created pent-up demand.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> After the decisive victory at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Waterloo" title="Battle of Waterloo">Battle of Waterloo</a> in 1815 ended the wars for good, there was a long financial boom amid greatly increased British self-confidence.
