Great Britain

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is situated on

the British Isles. The British Isles consist of two large islands, Great Britain and

Ireland, and about five thousand small islands. Their total area is over 244, 000

square kilometers.

The United Kingdom is made up of four countries: England, Wales,

Scotland and Northern Ireland. Their capitals are London, Cardiff, Edinburgh

and Belfast respectively. Great Britain consists of England, Scotland, and

Wales does not include Northern Ireland. But in everyday speech “Great

Britain” is used to mean the United Kingdom. The capital of the UK is London.

The British Isles are separated from the continent by the Northern Sea

and the English Channel. The Western Coast of Great Britain is washed by the

Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea.

Shakespeare called Britain a “precious stone set in the silver sea”

because of its natural beauty. It has a varied countryside where you can find

mountains, plains, valleys and sandy beaches. Ben Nevis in Scotland is the

highest mountain, but it is only 1343 meters high.

There are a lot of rivers in Great Britain, but they are not very long. The

Severn is the longest river, while the Thames is the deepest one and the most

important one.

The mountains, the Atlantic Ocean and the warm waters of Gulf Stream

influence the climate of the British Isles. It is mild all year round.

The UK is the one of the world smallest countries. Its population is over

58 million. About 80% of population lives in cities.

The UK is a highly developed industrial country. It is known as one of

the world’s largest producers and exporters of machinery, electronics, textile,

aircraft and navigation equipment. One of the chief industries of the country is

shipbuilding.

The UK is a constitutional monarchy. In law, the Head of State is the
