Culture and history
In the 18th and 19th centuries, Britain, being in first place in the world in
terms of economic development, created a colossal colonial power that
occupied almost a quarter of the planet's territory. The British colonies
included India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and a
significant part of Africa. In the twentieth century, the English colonies
became independent states, but many of them are part of the British
Commonwealth, headed by the British Monarch. In 1921, the southern part
of Ireland separated from Great Britain and became an independent state.
