POLITICAL MAP

United Kingdom Countries Map

The United Kingdom is a sovereign nation situated in northwestern Europe. It is composed of four distinct and historically rich constituent countries: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. These four nations, each with their own unique culture, history, and identities, come together to form a cohesive and diverse union.

These four countries, though united under a single political entity, maintain a sense of autonomy and individuality. The United Kingdom’s unity is maintained through shared institutions such as the British monarchy, the British Parliament, and common foreign and defense policies.
