United Kingdom

The United Kingdom, also called England or Great Britain is the country

which once ruled nearly the entire world a century ago. The glory might

have been lost, but people are still proud of their country and heritage. It

has come a long way from a colonial empire to a member of the EU. The

country comprises mainly of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern

Ireland.

The country is full of scenic countryside and energetic cities. Also, the

county is home to nearly two million heritage points. The capital city of

the UK is London. A city beyond comparison, representing itself as an icon

of diversity with people from different races and creeds from all walks of

life blending into its culture. It’s also home to many architectural marvels

and one of them is the London Bridge. While York and Durham manifest

a bygone era of the country, Liverpool and Newcastle are modern

industrial marvels. Not to forget the scenic Lake District and Edinburg,

which still attracts people from all over the world.
