At the map of great britain
The British Isles consist of two main islands: Great Britain and Ireland. The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland includes these two islands and over five hundred small islands. Its total area is about 94,250 square miles (or 240,000 sq. km). Its population is 59,000,000. Great Britain consists of England, Wales and Scotland.
Britain has a great variety of scenery. In Scotland there are wild desolate mountains. With England lying to the south it is bounded on the north-west and west by the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea, and on the east by the North Sea. The island of Great Britain is separated from France by the English Channel. Northern Ireland, which is a part of Great Britain and which is situated on the land of Ireland, is separated from Great Britain by the North Channel.
The island of Great Britain is divided into two parts: mountainous (in the north and west of the island) and lowland (in the south and east). There are no very long rivers in Great Britain. The most important rivers are the Thames (the deepest) and the Severn (the longest). The rivers seldom freeze in winter. Due to the moderating influence of the sea Great Britain has an insular climate, rather humid and mild, without striking discrepancy between seasons.
The United Kingdom consists of four main parts: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Administratively Great Britain is divided into 55 counties. The biggest cities of Great Britain are London, Birmingham, Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester, Edinburgh and Cardiff.
England is the largest part of Great Britain (it occupies over 50% of the territory and its population amounts to 83% of the total population of Great Britain). Wales is a peninsula in the south-west of the island of Great Britain. It occupies about 9% of its territory with the population of 4.8 % of the total population. Scotland is the most northern part of Great Britain with a territory of 32% of the total territory and with a population of 9% of the total population of Great Britain. Northern Ireland occupies the north-east part of the island of Ireland. Its territory amounts to 5.2% of the total territory of Great Britain. The main cities of Northern Ireland are Belfast and Londonderry.
The mainland of Scotland can be divided into such regions: the Highlands, the Central Lowlands and the Southern Uplands. In England and Wales all the high lands are in the west and north-west. The south-eastern plain reaches the west coast only at one or two places – at the Bristol Channel and by the mouths of the rivers Dee and Mersey. In the north there are the Cheviots separating England from Scotland , the Pennines going down England like a backbone and the Cambrian mountains of the Lake District. The south-eastern part of England is the low-lying land with gentle hills and a coast which is regular outline.
Almost all the area of Northern Ireland is a plain of volcanic origin deeping in the centre to form the large lakes. The coastline of Northern Ireland is rugged with rocks and cliffs, it is indented by gulfs and bays.
The Welsh have their own language. However, many Welsh people do not know Welsh, and English is spoken by everyone in Wales. Scotland and Ireland also have their own languages; some people speak Gaelic in western Scotland. But English is known by everyone there.
The flag of the United Kingdom, known as the Union Jack, is made up of three crosses. The upright red cross is the cross of St. George, the patron saint of England. The white diagonal cross is the cross of St. Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland. The red diagonal cross of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland.
