The teacher: During your reports you used such names as “The United Kingdom” or “Great Britain”. Are they different or the same? If they are different, tell us about the difference between them.
The fifth group
We shall
explain you the difference between these meanings.
The matter is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is the
official name of the state which is situated on the British Isles. So Great
Britain is often called “Britain” or “the United Kingdom”, or “The UK”.
It consists of four countries which are England, Scotland, Wales
and Northern Ireland. Each of them has capital but London is the capital of England,
of Great Britain and of the United Kingdom.
It consists of two main islands: Great Britain and Ireland. But only Northern Ireland is the part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Ireland is an independent republic. The land of the UK
is 244,000 sq. km. The population is about 58 million people. Great Britain consists of three parts. They are: England, Scotland and Wales.
The UK is separated from France by the English Channel and Strait of Dover. The
UK is also washed by the Atlantic Ocean in the North and the North Sea in the
east. Everyone who was born in the UK is the British.
The flag of the UK is known as 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.Patric (the patron saint of Ireland). The flag was founded in 1801. It symbolizes the union of England,
Scotland and Wales. It is called “Jack” because the flag is flown on the jack
staff of ships to show their nationality.
In Britain the Queen is the head of the state, but she doesn’t rule the country. The Queen is a symbol of the country history and traditions.
British people are very conservative. They are proud of their traditions and carefully keep them up. But traditions are different in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Teacher: Let’s compare these two maps, your own blind map with the original.
What difference can you name?
We see that they are the same.
