often visited by them in the UK.The country is an
island. The capital of Great Britain is London and, as it has been
earlier mentioned this, country is a kingdom. The state consists of four
«historical provinces»: England, Scotland, the Wales and Northern
Ireland.Great Britain has possesses rich and
ancient history, it is strange and surprising how such «a small country»
could endure so many events. Great Britain headed industrial revolution
in a XVIII-th century and since then has been giving to the world
talented and famous scientists. Among main scientists of XVII-XVIII
centuries we can name Isaac Newton, whose laws of movement are the bases

Charles Darwin, whose theory of evolution of natural selection is the
basis of modern biological science. You shouldn`t forget also that the
UK it the homeland of William Shakespeare. His play «Romeo and Juliet»
