the united kingdom consists of a group of islands
off the northwest coast of europe. it is a country
made up of four nations: england, wales, scotland,
and northern ireland. england, wales, and
scotland also make up great britain. much of the
north and west of the u.k. is covered in mountains
with deep valleys. in the south of england, the coun-
tryside is hilly.
2. sports and literature are very popular in the united
kingdom. soccer, rugby, cricket, boxing, and golf
were all invented in britain. the u.k. has many
great writers, including william shakespeare,
charles dickens, and robert burns. j.k. rowling,
the author of the harry potter books, is british.

council then became parliament, which now passes
all the country’s laws. today, the monarch, who can
be a king or queen, has no real power.
4. the first people who lived in the united kingdom
were the picts, who arrived about 10,000 years ago.
