British history and its brief introduction

According to archaeological discoveries, people lived on the island of Great Britain 3500 years ago. In the mid-5th century, a large number of Germans invaded Great Britain from Northern Europe and became the ancestors of the present-day English people. At that time, some Celts fled to the western and northern mountains, while others fled to Ireland. They are the ancestors of the Welsh, Scots and Irish today. Christianity began to spread to Great Britain in the 6th century. /kloc-In the mid-5th century, British aristocrats fought a "Rose" civil war for the throne for 30 years. As a result, the economically developed southern landlords and new noble won. The "Tudor Dynasty" was thus established. During World War I, Britain and Germany became belligerents. Due to the anti-German sentiment of the British people, King George V ordered in 19 19 that the "Hanover Palace" with German color was renamed as "Windsor Dynasty".

In the middle of the eighteenth century, due to the gradual maturity of politics, economy and technology, an industrial revolution arose in Britain. With the invention of the steam engine and the use of various machines, by the Victorian era of19th century, Britain had become the most advanced industrial country in the world, ranking first in production and trade, pursuing gunboat policy everywhere, seizing maritime hegemony, occupying colonies and plundering the wealth of other countries. The British Empire dominates the world, and its overseas rule covers Europe, Asia, the United States, Africa and Australia. Known as "not falling empire."

By the end of19th century, due to the rise of the United States, Germany and other countries, Britain gradually lost its advantage. Later, it was severely traumatized in the Second World War, and the national strength of the British Empire gradually declined. Originally an Irish island, 26 counties in the south left Britain at 192 1, and overseas colonies also declared their independence after World War II. The British Empire gradually evolved into a loosely organized Commonwealth.
