When you open the map of Europe, you can see that there are two big islands in the sea off the west coast of Europe, one is called Great Britain and the other is called Ireland. The whole of the former, the northern part of the latter and other small islands form a country, the full name of which is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and the international name is the United Kingdom. This country includes England, Wales, Scotland (three of which are on the island of Great Britain) and Northern Ireland, covering an area of more than 240,000 square kilometers, equivalent to the areas of China, Jiangsu and Anhui provinces, with a population of more than 58 million. The first religion is London. Because England is the center of gravity of the country and the population accounts for the vast majority, it is customary to use English for short as Britain in Chinese.

On land, Britain is not too big. There is an idiom in English: from John Ogroz to the end of the land. It means "from the northernmost point to the southernmost point of Britain", which seems quite far. In fact, the straight-line distance from John O 'Grotz (the northernmost Scottish village) to Lanzi Point (Zilan Point in southwest England) is less than 1000 km. Coupled with the twists and turns of the coast, any place in Britain is no more than 120 km from the sea. But in this small country, the terrain is rich and colorful. The southeast is mostly plain hills, and there are mountains and plateaus in the northwest. The most famous mountain range is Benning Mountain, which runs through the north and south for more than 200 kilometers. It is known as the "backbone of Britain", but the highest mountain in Scotland is called Ben Nevis Mountain, with an altitude of 1343 meters, almost as high as Mount Tai. The largest number of lakes in Britain are located in the Lake District, where lake poets live, and Loch Ness, where it is said that there are water monsters. However, the largest lake in Ireland is called Lake Neh. Of course, it is much smaller than Taihu Lake and Dongting Lake in China. Speaking of rivers in Britain, people naturally think of the Thames, but the longest river is the Severn River, which originated in Wales and has a total length of 354 kilometers. This river has a trumpet-shaped mouth. Whenever the spring tide appears, the waves fly and the sea water pours into the estuary, which is spectacular.

Britain is a beautiful country, with cultural relics and historic sites everywhere, beautiful natural scenery and rich tourism resources. Many cities, such as London, Flower of Ten Thousand Cities, Edinburgh, Athens in the north, Oxford and Cambridge, antique York City and Stratford, Shakespeare's hometown, are world-famous tourist cities.
