isles.

 The Tudors were a Welsh-English family that ruled England and Wales
from 1485 to 1603, starting with the first monarch King Henry VII
(1457–1509).
 During 118 years of Tudor rule, England became richer than ever
before. As the country became wealthier, towns grew, beautiful houses
were built and schools and colleges were set up. Arts and crafts
flourished too. England was home to great painters, writers and
musicians.
 Civil Wars fought from 1642 to 1651, the English Civil Wars involved
King Charles I battling Parliament for control of
the English government. The war had ended the notion of the divine
right of kings and laid the groundwork for the modern UK parliament
and monarchy.

 Empire and Sea Power: The British Empire comprised the dominions, colonies,
protectorates, mandates, and other territories ruled or administered by the United
Kingdom and its predecessor states. It originated with the overseas possessions
and trading posts established by England between the late 16th and early 18th
centuries.
 The empire effects were both positive and negative and affect both Britain and
her colonies. The empire introduced new technology agricultural practices,
industries infrastructure, education, religion, administration systems and court
systems.
 The Battle of Trafalgar was a sea battle fought on 21 October 1805 between the
navies of France and Spain on one side, and Great Britain on the other.

its royal assent, abolishing the slave trade in the British colonies and
making it illegal to carry enslaved people in British ships.
 Slavery Abolition Act, (1833), in British history, act of Parliament

that abolished slavery in most British colonies, freeing more than
800,000 enslaved Africans in the Caribbean and South Africa as well
as a small number in Canada.
 Victorian era, in
British history, the period between approximately 1820 and 1914,
corresponding roughly but not exactly to the period of
Queen Victoria’s reign (1837–1901) and characterized by a class-
based society, a growing number of people able to vote, a growing
state and economy, and Britain’s status as the most powerful
empire in the world.
 It was the time of the world’s first Industrial Revolution, political
reform and social change, Charles Dickens and Charles Darwin, a
railway boom and the first telephone and telegraph. But the
Victorian Era also saw a demise of rural life as cities rapidly grew
and expanded, long and regimented factory hours, the start of the
Crimean War and Jack the Ripper.

personnel.
 World War II, invasion of Poland in September 1939 drove Great
Britain and France to declare war on Germany, marking the
beginning of World War II. Over the next six years, the conflict
would take more lives and destroy more land and property around
the globe than any previous war.
Modern Era
 Queen Elizabeth II became queen on February 6, 1952, and was crowned on
June 2, 1953. She is the mother of Prince Charles, heir to the throne, as well
as the grandmother of Princes William and Harry. As the longest-serving
monarch in British history, she has tried to make her reign more modern and
sensitive to a changing public while maintaining traditions associated with the
crown.
 Margaret Thatcher, she was the longest-serving British prime minister of the
20th century and the first woman to hold that office. A Soviet journalist
dubbed her the "Iron Lady", a nickname that became associated with her
uncompromising politics and leadership style. As Prime Minister, she
implemented policies known as Thatcherism.
 The UK is no longer a member of the European Union (EU), but that's not the
end of Brexit.
 Even though Brexit happened on 31 January 2020, both sides still need to
work out the rules for their new relationship. This includes everything from
trade, immigration, aviation, security and access to fishing waters.
