11、个国家，人们或许感到很奇怪。如果你学习英国历史，你就可以弄清 楚这个问题。首先是英格兰。威尔士在公元13世纪时与英格兰是一体的。如今 只要有人提起英格兰，你就会发现威尔士也是被包括在内的。接着英 格兰和威尔士在17世纪同苏格兰合并，后来更名为“大不列颠”。令 人庆幸的是，当苏格兰的詹姆斯国王也成为英格兰和威尔士的国王时并未经过战争。最后在20世纪初，英国 政府试图以同样的和平方式把爱尔兰联合起来以形成联合王国。然而, 爱尔兰的南部不愿意（组建联合王国），它分离出去并建立了自己的政 府。因此，只有北爱尔兰同英格兰、威尔士和苏格兰联合起来组成了 联合王国，从向世界展示的新的英国国旗上就可以看出来。
