The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (the UK)
is the official name of the state, which is situated on the British Isles. This
state is also called Great Britain after the main island with the same name.
The UK consists of four countries, which are England, Scotland, Wales and
Northern Ireland. Their capitals are London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast.
The UK is an island state. The two main islands are Great Britain
(where England, Scotland and Wales are situated) and Ireland (where Northern
Ireland and the independent Irish Republic are situated). The two islands are
separated by the Irish Sea. The UK is washed by the Atlantic Ocean in the north
and the North Sea in the east.
The UK is separated from the continent by the English Channel and
the Strait of Dover. The Strait of Dover is the narrowest part of English
Channel. The nearest point to Europe is Dover which is only thirty-two miles
from France. Dover is one of the most ancient ports. If you cross the English
Channel by ferry you can see the white chalk cliffs of Dover and Dover Castle.
Everyone who was born in Britain is British. People from England
are English. People from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are not English.
They are Scottish or the Scotts, Welsh and Irish.Everyone in Britain speaks
English. But in some parts of Scotland and Wales people speak different languages
as well. The Welsh are especially proud of their language. They like to speak
Welsh, to sing songs in Welsh and when you travel you can see road signs in
Welsh all over Wales. Everyone in the UK speaks English but they all speak it
differently. A Scottish person has to listen carefully if he wants to
understand a Londoner or a Welsh person.
The climate in Great Britain is very mild. The winter temperature
is between +3° and +7°. Snow does not cover the ground very long, except on the
mountains. The summer temperature is between +15° and +18°. It often rains.
The English weather is very changeable. So when English people
make plans for holidays they usually begin, “If the weather…”The flag of the
United Kingdom is known as the Union Jack. It is made up of three crosses: the
cross of St. George (the patron saint of England), the cross of St. Andrew (the
patron saint of Scotland) and the cross of St. Patrick (the patron saint of
Ireland).
