İntroduction Great Britain is a term often used to refer to the largest island in the British Isles, which includes three countries: England, Scotland, and Wales. It is part of the United Kingdom (UK), which also includes Northern Ireland. Great Britain has a rich history, diverse culture, and is known for its iconic landmarks such as Big Ben, the Tower of London, and the picturesque landscapes of the Scottish Highlands and Welsh valleys. The UK has played a significant role in world history, including its colonial empire, and it is known for its contributions to literature, music, and science. Additionally, Great Britain is renowned for its monarchy, with Queen Elizabeth II being the reigning monarch at my last knowledge update in September 2021. The country is known for its parliamentary system of government and famous political figures like Winston Churchill and Margaret Thatcher.

The biggest part of the United Kingdom is the island of Great Britain, which is made up of England, Wales, and Scotland. The U.K. also includes Northern Ireland, which is on another island. he capital is London, which is among the world’s leading commercial, financial, and cultural centres.

Today, more than 80 percent of the people in the United Kingdom live in England. London, the capital of both England and the U.K., is home to just under nine million residents. Nearly half of the U.K’s population is Christian, with most belonging to Protestant churches. The country is also home to large and growing communities of Muslims, Hindus, and Jews.

PEOPLE AND CULTURE

NATURE

About 5,000 years ago, much of the United Kingdom was covered with thick forests. Today, only about 13 percent of the U.K.’s land is forest.

The United Kingdom is a crowded country, with few truly wild places left. The most successful wildlife species are those that can live alongside people, including smaller mammals like hedgehogs, hares, and badgers. Roe deer, which are native to the country, and red deer are the largest mammals found in the U.K.

Elizabeth is the world's longest-reigning female monarch, serving as queen from 1952 to 2022. She passed away in September 2022 at the age of 96.

Queen Elizabeth coronation in 1953.

Oil, iron, and steel products are some of the United Kingdom’s main exports, or goods sold to other countries. The country also exports electrical equipment, and parts for automobiles and aircrafts.

In 1973, the United Kingdom joined the European Union, or EU. Member countries all from Europe follow certain trade, security, immigration, and environmental laws. But some U.K. citizens didn’t like that they had to follow these laws. The country voted to leave the EU in 2016 and officially left in January 2020.

People around the world called the United Kingdom’s departure “Brexit,” a combination of “Britain” and “exit.”
