Write a summary of the text according to the clues.
become part of, join, addition, break away, evidence, the Romans,
the Anglo-Saxons,
new vocabulary, the Normans, London
In the 16th century, Wales became part of the Kingdom of England. Later Scotland joined creating the Kingdom of Great Britain. The addition of Ireland created the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The breaking away of the southern part of Ireland in the 20th century resulted in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which most people call the UK, Britain or Great Britain. In the UK, evidence of four ancient peoples can be found.
The Romans in the 1st century built towns and roads. Afterwards the Anglo-Saxons introduced the beginnings of the English language. Then the Vikings brought new vocabulary and place names. Lastly, the Normans in the 11th century built castles, changed the legal system and brought French words. A good place to start learning about the UK’s history is London, where past and present meet.
