Landeskunde Großbritannien
The United Kingdom is a country steeped in history, culture and tradition; its heritage is fascinatingly rich and its monarchs and politicians have always had great influence on world affairs. But the world is changing, and Britain's economic, social and political strengths are being permanently put to the test; greater European co-operation and the demands of globalisation are putting pressure on Britain to examine her traditional ways. From many quarters, people are now asking: "Who are the Brits?". By examining her society and institutions, we hope to be able to give some answers to the question.
