Text A GREAT BRITAIN
Great Britain formally known as the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland , is situated on the British Isles that 1ie to the north-west of the continent of Europe.
The British Isles consist of Great Britain, Ireland and some 5,600 smaller islands.
The total area of the United Kingdom which consists of England, Wales, Scotland and northern Ireland is 244.027 square kilometers. Great Britain is divided into 55 administrative counties. The English Channel separates the country from the continent of Europe. The narrowest part of the English Channel is called the Strait of Dover. It is only 31 km wide. The North Sea washes the eastern coast of the county. The Irish Sea is situated between Great Britain and Ireland. The western coast of the country is washed by the Atlantic Ocean. The country is known for its typically maritime climate with frequent rains, strong winds and continuous fogs. Owing to the Gulf Stream and cool winds from the sea the climate of Great Britain is cooler in summer and warmer in winter than that on the continent.
There are many rivers in Great Britain, but none of them is very long. Most of the rivers are connected with one another by means of canals. The surface of England and Ireland is rather flat. The mountains in Great Britain are not high. They are all in the North and West. In the centre of England is a range of hills called the Pennines, which are also known as the "backbone of England". The highest mountains are in Scotland and Wales ; Ben Nevis (1343m) and Snowdon (1085m). Great Britain is one of the most populated countries in the world and there are only nine other countries with more people. It has the population of 56 million.
Great Britain is a parliamentary monarchy. This means that it has a monarch (a king or a queen) as its Head of State. But in practice the monarch has very little power and can only reign but does not rule. The country is governed in her name by the Government. The supreme legislative body is Parliament. The Parliament in Great Britain which is by the way one of the oldest in Europe consists of two chambers: the House of Commons and the House of Lords.
The British democrative system depends on political parties. The main political parties are: the Conservative Party (sometimes called the Tory Party), the Labour Party , the Liberal Party, the Social Democratic Party. The Party which wins the majority of seats forms the Government and its leader usually becomes the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister chooses about twenty Members of Parliament (MPs) from his or her party to become Cabinet of Ministers.
