Kingdom of Great Britain

Kingdom of Great Britain
The Kingdom of Great Britain is a constitutional monarchy compassing the entirety of the British Isles and many overseas territories. The modern nation was brought into being by the Acts of Union in 1707 which united the thrones of Scotland and England into a single institution. Today, Great Britain is one of the strongest countries, militarily, economically, and politically on Earth, being the home and focal point of the Industrial Revolution. Its form of stable constitutional monarchy has been an inspiration to many governments worldwide and directly challenges the long-held views of many absolute monarchs. With large amounts of overseas territories, especially in India, and a growing desire to secure more, Britain is poised for a period of expansion almost unparalleled in history.
