Actually - 'Twas the age of Queen Victoria's' is the opening line of the song, It's much easier to call them all Victorians, and because it's a British show, we remember things by Monarch or Dynasty until 1914 so Victorian is easier than saying 1836 - 1901 and Britain was the leading nation at that point so it is also called Victorian in other countries too

To all: No countries are mentioned in this song, that is because they are singing about inventions made during the reign of Queen Victoria (1837 - 1901). They're labelled as Victorian inventions as this is a British television show and most Britons know the name of the ages better, it also shows the great progress made in the reign of one monarch better than others (she was the longest reign of the period I believe)

The teddy bear is a soft toy in the form of a bear. Developed apparently simultaneously by toymakers Morris Michtom in the US and Richard Steiff in Germany in the early years of the 20th century, and named after President Theodore "T.R." Roosevelt, Jr., the teddy bear became an iconic children's toy, celebrated in story, song and film. Since the creation of the first teddy bears which sought to imitate the form of real bear cubs, "teddies" have greatly varied in form, style and material. They have become collector's items, with older and rarer "teddies" appearing at public auctions. Teddy bears are among the most popular gifts for children and are often given to adults to signify love, congratulations or sympathy.

As a man who was born in Scotland he was Scottish, a Scotsman invented the telephone so the telephone was adopted as a Scottish invention: along with the television (John Logie-Baird), the bicycle (Kirkpatrick MacMillan, although that is open for debate, Thomas McCall), coal gas lighting (William Murdoch, not the same one as on Titanic), passenger steamboats (Henry Bell).
