UNITED KINGDOM
Some people call it Britain. Others say Great Britain. Many people mistakenly call
the whole country England. But its real name is a mouthful: the United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Northern Ireland. That is why it is usually called the United
Kingdom, or the UK for short.
The United Kingdom is a country made up of four parts: England, Scotland, Wales
and Northern Ireland. For centuries, it was ruled by kings and queens. The United
Kingdom still has the monarchy, although today its power is mostly symbolic.
England is the biggest part, but don’t forget the others. Each part was once ruled
separately. Each has its own culture and its own native language, which some people
still speak. Each even has its own national soccer team!
