GREAT BRITAIN
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland consists of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. It covers the British Isles.
The North Sea, the Straits of Dover and the English Channel separate Great Britain from the continent.
The surface of the British Isles varies very much. The north of Scotland is mountainous and is called the Highlands, while the south is called the Lowlands. There are numerous lakes in Scotland and they are called Lochs.
The mountains in Great Britain are not very high.
There are many rivers in Great Britain, but they are not very long: the Severn, the Thames.
The climate of Great Britain is mild. The Atlantic Ocean and the warm waters of the Gulf Streem influence the weather of the British Isles. The summers are cool and rainy. It is not so hot in England as on the continent. There is much rain and fog in autumn and in winter.
Great Britain is a highly developed industrial country. It is a large producer of iron and steel products, electronics and machinery, chemicals and textiles. It has a highly developed shipbuilding industry.
Great Britain is not very rich in mineral resources, it imports all of its oil, cotton, rubber, sulphur, four-fifths of its wool, half of its food and iron ore.
Great Britain exports machinery, motor-cars, aircraft, locomotives, chemicals, woolen and synthetic textiles, radio, TV and navigation equipment.
Great Britain has a lot of industrial cities, such as London, Birmingham, Glasgow, Liverpool, Sheffield, Bristol and many others.
