The official name, national flag, national anthem, and national capital of the country 2. The location and size of the country 3. The terrain, rivers and mountains of the country 4. The natural resources of the country 5. The climate of the country,Focal points:,The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (Since 1927),1. The official name, national flag, national anthem, and national capital of the country,1.1 The Official Name of the Country,Conventionally shortened to United Kingdom,Abbreviation: UK,People often get confused with the terms “England”, “Britain”, “Great Britain”, “United Kingdom”, and “British Isles”. Even some British people are not fully aware of the precise reality that these terms express. Do these terms mean the same?,Question to ponder:,Hints ,Many people say England when they really mean The United Kingdom. This is not correct! People in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland consider it insulting and hate hearing Britain being referred to as “England” as it appears to ignore their existence. England is only a constituent country in the UK, and a part of the island of Great Britain, together with Scotland and Wales.,England,Strictly, “Britain” refers to the largest island in the British Isles, which contains modern-day England, Wales and Scotland and islands governed from the mainland (i.e. not Isle of Man or Channel Islands). However, the term “Britain” is more commonly used as a political term: an alternative name for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.,Britain,Great Britain is the collective name for the three countries of England, Scotland and Wales. It also includes the small adjacent islands but it does not include the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man. Great Britain and Northern Ireland together form the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland“, or UK.,Great Britain,“The United Kingdom” is the abbreviated form for the official name “The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland“, which came into use in 1922 after the constitution of the Irish Free State (1922-1937), the former name of the Republic of Ireland.,The United Kingdom,The British Isles is a geographical term for a group of islands consisting of Great Britain, the whole of Ireland, and many other smaller surrounding islands. The British Isles are the largest group of islands in Europe.,The British Isles,1. A great many people use “Great Britain” instead of “the United Kingdom” to mean the same thing. Do you think it is right? Look at the maps below. Then, you will have the answer.,Great Britain,The United Kingdom,Topics for discussion,2. In 1970, the BBC showed a series of programs about the history of the British Empire. Before the series started, they advertised it. The advertisement mentioned “Englands history”. Within a few hours, the BBC had received thousands of angry calls of protest and it was forced to make an apology. Who do you think the angry callers were? Why did the BBC apologize?,1.2 The National Flag of the Country,The Union Flag OR popularly known as the Union Jack,The National Flag of the UK,Description of the British national flag,The shape and flag ratio of the United Kingdom Flag is described as 1:2 (length twice the height). A blue field with the red cross of Saint George (patron saint of England) edged in white superimposed on the diagonal red cross of Saint Patrick (patron saint of Ireland), which is superimposed on the diagonal white cross of Saint Andrew (patron saint of Scotland).,Historical significance of the British national flag,The Union Jack is a transnational flag, which represents the union of different countries and the growth of a family of nations whose influence extends far beyond the British Isles. The Union Flag, or the Union Jack, signifies unity and is a fine expression and a great symbol of unity as well as diversity of the nation.,Formation of the British national flag - A symbol of unity,The British flag incorporates the national symbols of three distinct countries, England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. In fact its name Union Jack emphasizes the very nature of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland as a union of nations. The flag is also known by another name, this too, emphasizing the idea of union: the Union Flag, perhaps a less common term but a little more precise.,The Union Flag or Union Jack is a composite design made up of three different national symbols:,* The cross represented in each flag is named after the patron saint of each country.,St. Georges Cross,the flag of England,St. Andrews Cross,the flag of Scotland,The images below give you the idea of the union of the three flags forming one unified flag.,Each country of the kingdom has her national flag, and usually there is a story behind each national flag. The national flag of the United Kingdom has an interesting story, too.,Question to explore: Why doesnt the Welsh flag appear on the Union Flag?,The Red Dragon, flag of Wales,Answer ,-Because Wales had already been united to England when the first version of the Union Flag was designed in 1606. However, the dragon flag is in common use today, flying proudly over public and private buildings throughout Wales.,Kaleidoscope,Do you know the Union Jack is also incorporated into the national flags of some other independent countries? Look at these flags:,Australia,Fiji,Tuvalu,New Zealand,Union Jacks hung along Regent Street in London during the royal wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton on April 29, 2011.,Wow!The design of the Union Flag can be used on ,1.3 The National Anthem of the Country,GOD SAVE THE QUEEN Originated in a patriotic song first performed in 1745. No authorized version of the National Anthem, as the words are a matter of tradition. The words used are those sung in 1745. Substitute “Queen” for “King” where appropriate. Also used in a number of Commonwealth realms and British Crown Dependencies. On official occasions, only the first verse is usually sung.,1. God save our gracious Queen!Long live our noble Queen!God save the Queen!Send her victorious,Happy and glorious,Long to reign over us,God save the Queen.,http:/www.national-,http:/www.national-,God Save the Queen (standard version in the United Kingdom),2. O Lord, our God, arise, Scatter her enemies, And make them fall. Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On Thee our hopes we fix, God save us all.,3. Thy choicest gifts in store, On her be pleased to pour; Long may she reign: May she defend our laws, And ever give us cause. To sing with heart and voice: God save the Queen!,Musical,Vocal,On-line Listening and Viewing:,Video,Questions to explore: 1. On what occasions is the British National Anthem sung?,The National Anthem is played whenever The Queen makes a public appearance and is played by the British Broadcasting Corporation every night before closedown. It is also sung at: - the end of all Remembrance Day services. - Medal ceremonies for Team GB (representing all countries). - the England and Northern Ireland football matches.,2. If there is a King and a Queen at the same time what gender will be in the national anthem?,The anthem reflects the gender of the RULER.When George VI and Queen Elizabeth were on the throne, the anthem was God Save the King because the ruler was male. Only the RULER reigns, so the anthem reflects the gender of the ruler.,1.4 The National Capital of the Country,Facts learn the history and formation of its national flag, and know more about its national anthem, God Save the Queen, with its verses and tunes; and we also have an even clearer image of London, the national capital of the UK.,Further reading and references (useful websites),http:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_King dom http:/ www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk http:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_the_United_Kingdom http:/www.know- national_ anthem.html http:/www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/,Bear in your mind what you have learned from the textbook and the lectures by the teacher.
