The United Kingdom consists of Great Britain - the main island made up of England,

The official name of the UK is the
"United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland." The UK is a member of
the European Union (EU).
Before 1922 the UK included Ireland in the definition, but
when the Irish Free State ceased to be part of the Union the title changed to include
'Northern Ireland'.
The 'United Kingdom of Great Britain' was formed in 1707 by the Act of Union that
created a single kingdom with a single Parliament.
(Scotland has always retained its own legal system)
A hundred years later the Act of Union of 1801 joined Ireland to 'Great Britain' and the
name "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland" was first used.
(Since 1921 only
Northern Ireland has been part of the United Kingdom and so the name changed).
The UK is situated north-west of the European continent between the Atlantic Ocean
and the North Sea.
It has a total land area of 244,100 square kilometres, of which
nearly 99% is land and the remainder inland water.
From north to south it is about
1,000 kilometres long.
The United Kingdom is made up of:
England - The capital is London .
Scotland - The capital is Edinburgh .
Wales - The capital is Cardiff.
Northern Ireland - The capital is Belfast.
(he capital of the UK is London .).
