Geography

England has 4,422 km (2,748 mi)

of coastline, much less than the
deeply indented Scottish coastline.
 Introduction

England is unique among European countries. As an island, it

has been protected by surrounding waters that form a natural
barrier.

The area now called England was occupied by many

European cultures and tribes. In 1066 AD the Normans, from
France, invaded and became the new rulers of England.
London was established as the country's capital.

England suffered enormous losses during World War I (1914–

18), World War II (1939–45) was also devastating to England.
The British economy and society still have a strong influence
in world affairs today..

Food

English cuisine can seem bland and unimaginative to people

from other countries. It usually does not include many herbs
or spices, or fancy presentations. This may be why food from
other countries, especially India and China, is popular in
England.

The traditional English breakfast is quite substantial. It

includes bacon, eggs, sausages, mushrooms, grilled tomatoes,
fried bread, and kipper (a type of smoked fish). Modern
English people rarely take the time to prepare such an
elaborate breakfast before going off to work or school. They
usually eat a lighter meal, often cereal and toast with
marmalade.
