V Reading materials.
There is no need to debate any more about why different words are used to describe the four countries: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. You can easily clarify any problems if you study British history.
First there was England. Wales was linked to England in the 13th century AD. Now when people refer to England you find Wales included as well.
Great Britain was the name given when England and Wales were joined to Scotland. It happened in 1603 when King James of Scotland became King of England and Wales as well. To their surprise, the three countries found themselves united peacefully instead of by war. However, just as they were going to get Ireland connected to form the United Kingdom, the southern part of that country broke away to form its own government. So only Northern Ireland joined with England, Wales and Scotland to become the United Kingdom and this was shown to the world in a new flag called the Union Jack.
Although the four countries do work together in some areas (for example, in international relations) they are still very different. For example, Northern Ireland, England and Scotland have developed different educational and legal systems as well as different football teams for competitions like the World Cup!
England is the largest of the four countries and for convenience it is divided roughly into three zones. The zone nearest France is called the South of England, the middle zone is called the Midlands, and the one nearest to Scotland is known as the North. You find most of the population settled in the South, but most of the large industrial cities in the Midlands and North of England. Although many of the cities are not as large as those in China, they have famous football teams and some even have two. However, these industrial cities built in the 19th century do not have then historical attractions of other places. For those you have to go to older but smaller towns first built by the Romans. There you will find out more about British history and culture.
The greatest historical treasure of all is London with its museums, art collections, theatres, parks and buildings. It has the oldest port built by the Romans in the 1st century AD, the oldest building begun by the Anglo-Saxons in the 1060s and the oldest castle constructed by later Norman rulers in 1066. But London has been influenced only by some invaders of England. The first invaders, the Romans, left their towns and roads. The second, the Anglo-Saxons, left their language and their government. The third, the Vikings, influenced the vocabulary and place-names of the North, and the fourth, the Normans, left castles and words for food. If you look around the British countryside, you will find evidence of all these invaders. You must keep your eyes open if you are going to make your trip to the United Kingdom worthwhile!
