About England
England is the central country in Great Britain. Many English people bristle at being called Brits. They are first of all English, not Welsh or Scots. This proud country boasts the largest city in Europe, London as its capitol and at one time ruled the seas with its mighty navy.
Although England is small in terms of landmass, it has had tremendous influence around the world in respect to language, art and literature.

Come to England to see the beautiful villages, stately homes and castles, varied landscapes and stunning architecture. But, also come to experience the wonderful heritage that the English have preserved through the years.
