Britain and Ireland
The British Isles is made up of two large islands: One is called Ireland and the other __36 . Britain, or Great Britain, is the larger of these two islands, and it is 37 into three parts: Scotland, Wales and England.
The United Kingdom is that 38 of the British Isles ruled over by the Queen. It is made up of Scotland, Wales and England, that is, the 39 of Britain, and also about one sixth of Ireland, the Northern part. The 40 of Ireland is self-governing. The 41 name of the United Kingdom is 42 “The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”.
43 is larger and richer than Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and has the largest 44 of the United Kingdom, so people often use the 45 “England” and “English” when they 46 “Britain” and “British”. This sometimes makes the Scots and the Welsh a little 47 . The Scots in particular are very 48 of their separate nationality. The Welsh too do not regard 49 as English, and have a
culture and even a 50 of their own.
Ireland became part of the United Kingdom in 1801, but for forty years the “Irish 51 ” was the greatest
headache of the United Kingdom. 52 , Ireland is divided into two: Northern Ireland still 53 to the United Kingdom, and in 1922 the rest of Ireland 54 to found an Irish Free State, later called Eire and now the Republic of Ireland.
The Republic of Ireland does not regard itself as part of Britain, and is not now even a
supporter of the Commonwealth of Nations (英联邦). Unlike the major Commonwealth countries it did not lift a finger
