England is a country that is part of the United Kingdom. England is
separated from continental Europe by the North Sea to the east and
the English Channel to the south. The country covers five-eighths of
the island of Great Britain (which lies in the North Atlantic) in its
centre and south, and includes over 100 smaller islands
It shares land borders with Scotland to the north and Wales to the
west. Over the Irish Sea we can find the Ireland and Northern Ireland.
All of this (England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and Northern Ireland)
forms United Kingdom.

Although there is evidence of scattered Brythonic settlements in the area,
the first major settlement was founded by the Romans after the invasion of
43 AD. This lasted only until around 61, when the Iceni tribe led by Queen
Boudica stormed it, burning it to the ground. The next, heavily planned,
incarnation of Londinium prospered, and it superseded Colchester as the
capital of the Roman province of Britannia in 100. At its height in the 2nd
century, Roman London had a population of around 60,000.
London has a temperate oceanic climate, similar to all of southern
England.Despite its reputation as being a rainy city, London receives
less precipitation in a year
than Rome, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Naples, Sydney and New York.
Summers are mild, but generally warm. Winters are generally cool,
cloudy and damp with little temperature variation. Snowfall occurs
occasionally and can cause travel disruption when this happens.
