The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. What Do We Mean By Britain?
• Britain is not England and England is not the
same as Britain - though the language is
English.
• Generally understood that Britain is made up
of four separate nations - names?
• England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland.
• However, there is another name for this group
of countries.
• The United Kingdom - UK.
• Names - UK or GB, is there a difference?
3. What’s in a Name - UK or
GB?
• Great Britain - (geographic) mainland (or
main island), archipelago consisting of
England, Scotland and Wales
• British Isles - (geographic) GB plus all the
other islands including Ireland
• United Kingdom - (of Great Britain and
Northern Ireland) - (political )
• Britain often used as political term for the UK.
• British but not United Kingdomish!
4. Britannia
• Britannia became the figure of
national personification of the United Kingdom during
the 18th century
5. Common misconceptions and
sources of confusion
• Some people think the other countries are the
same as England - very upsetting to the other
nationalities. Try asking a Scotsman if he’s
English!
• N Ireland is part of the UK but the Republic of
Ireland is not - separate nation since 1921.
• British Parliament in London. Scotland, Wales
and NI all have their own parliaments
(assemblies), but England does not.
9. About Britain - the Geography:
Not a Land of Extremes!
• Satellite Image of the
UK
• Anything surprising
about this image?
10. Climate and Weather
• Lack of cloud! UK has a reputation for poor weather, cool
and wet.
• Temperate climate - subject to seasonal change
• 4 seasons, though sometimes it feels as if 1 is missed out!?
• Generally moderate
• In the path of the Gulf Stream, bringing mild, often damp
weather from the SW across the Atlantic.
• Recent instances of more extreme weather - global
warming or natural cycle?
• Often very changeable and unpredictable - favourite
conversation topic.
• ‘If you don’t like the weather here, just wait 10 minutes!’
11.
12.
13.
14. Topography and Landscape
• Again, no extremes, but
very varied
• A lot of coastline - BBC
series ‘Coast’
• Lower land to the south
and east
• Higher ground to the
north and west
• Several national parks
• What does this map tell
you about probable
population distribution?
19. • Last census 2001 - nearly 59m.
• 85% white British
• 15% other races and ethnicities
• Mostly urban - About 75% living in
towns and cities
• Current issues - declining birth rate and
life expectancy increasing > fewer
young people and more older.
20. What do we mean by British?
• We will return to this question later, but you
can be thinking about it.
21. Complexity of being British
• Sport is a good model to demonstrate.
• England, Scotland, Wales and NI have own
teams for football and most other sports.
• But in the Olympics, which includes almost
all sports, it’s GB. ( but in a similar
competition, the Commonwealth games, it’s
Eng, Scot, Wales and NI)
• Cricket - England represents the UK!
• So sometimes people support Britain, at other
times they are English/Welsh/Scottish/N Irish!
• So diverse and multiple feelings of identity
and also fierce national rivalries- England v
Scotland football matches!
22. • England is often seen as the ‘enemy’, the
team it’s most important to beat.
• Historically, it was England (under Norman
rule), which invaded and oppressed the other
‘home nations’.
• For some this goes beyond sport and is
critical to their whole identity.
• Post WW2 (1945) arrival of Commonwealth
communities in UK - Norman Tebbit’s ‘cricket
test!?
• 2010 - communities in London supporting
every team in the World Cup.
23. The Home Nations - Scotland
• From ‘Scoti’ - Latin for the land of the Gaels,
relatives of the Celts who had settled in
Scotland and Ireland - the Gaelic language.
• Independent kingdom until the Act of Union
(with England) in 1707 - there had been the
same monarch since James in 1603.
• Still today has its own Parliament, legal
system - economy- North Sea oil
• Many Scots have achieved great success in
UK terms - Gordon Brown, Sir Alex Ferguson,
Gordon Ramsey
• However, many Scots feel Scottish rather
than British and want political independence -
success of SNP.
24.
25.
26. • Ben Nevis - highest mountain in Britain.
Scotland has some of the best scenery in
Britain, even the world (when you can see it).
• Scots guard in full traditional costume, kilt,
bagpipes and sporran .
• Most famous Scotsman?
• ‘Rabbie Burns’ – Burns Night – piping in the
haggis
• Scottish dancing – ‘cayleigh’
• People are Scottish, not Scotch!
• Which is the term for whisky.
27. • Saint Andrew - Patron Saint of Scotland
• Scottish flag, St Andrew cross
• Famous Scots in history – Mary Queen
of Scots, Bonnie Prince Charlie
• Capital Edinburgh (not Glasgow), home
of famous festival (Athens of the north)
28. Wales - Cymru
• The name from Germanic ‘Walha’ - foreigner,
stranger, or maybe ‘wealas’ - slave.
• In Welsh Cymru - cymry - compatriots in old
Welsh
• Never been a nation state but a kingdom until
1536 when finally came under English law -
after 1000 years of wars and skirmishes
against the ‘English’.
• But strong cultural tradition built around the
language - recent revival, dual language
signs today.
• Learning Welsh now compulsory in primary
schools.
29.
30.
31. • Mount Snowdon - apart from the SE of
Wales, most of the country very rural, and
in the north mountainous.
• Strong musical/choral tradition
• Until late 20th C, coal mining was main
industry.
• Millennium Stadium in Cardiff (Welsh
capital), symbolic of recent regeneration
32. Ireland and Northern Ireland
• One island but 2 separate states - Eire and NI
• From 1970 until recently a very troubled area - ‘the
troubles’ - what about?
• Settled by the Gaels and later Vikings - early Middle
Ages, 12th C, the English arrived and soon Ireland
became virtually a colony under English control.
• Following Reformation, religious dimension -
England Protestant, Ireland Catholic
• Irish peasants treated very badly - Great Famine of
the 1840s - independence movement, Sinn Fein -
IRA
• 19th C - Irish problem big issue in British politics
• Finally- 1920 Govt of Ireland Act - created split
nation – eventually leaving the ‘6 counties’ in the NE
as part of the UK, Northern Ireland/Ulster, but with a
33.
34.
35. Recent History – ‘The Troubles’
• Late 60s – eruption of violence between
Catholics and Protestants
• The Catholics protesting about discrimination
• Involvement of paramilitary groups
• The Irish Republican Army (IRA) – Catholic
nationalist – united Ireland
• Ulster Defence Association (UDA) –
Protestant, Loyalist – wanting to remain part
of the UK
• British army brought in to ‘keep the peace’
36.
37.
38. England
• Biggest in size and population.
• One country, but many regions and big cities
• North-South divide - stereotypes of typical
northerners and southerners.
• London still a magnet, but also resented for
its wealth and domination of the news/media
• 6 main regions
• London and SE, South West, East Anglia,
Midlands, North West, North East
• However, many base identity on their city -
Scousers, Mancies, Brummies, Geordies
39.
40. Social Class
• In Britain, but especially England, class is still
a very important factor in people’s identity.
• In part a legacy of the Norman feudal system
(aristocracy and peasants), but more recently
the Industrial Revolution (middle and working
classes)
• Today, less obvious and more flexible, but
still very important
41.
42.
43. Nationality & Identity
• Like many countries, nationality & identity are
not straightforward.
• By Britishness do we really mean
Englishness?
• Scots, Welsh, N. Irish, Manx & mixed race
inhabitants do not call themselves British.
• Great Britain used since 1603 when James VI
of Scotland became James I of England.
• United Kingdom of Great Britain in 1707, Act
