The United Kingdom

Referring back to the previous post “No Longer A Scottish Queen”, I just realized why the Union is a point of contention right now. 2007 is the 300th year that England, Scotland, and Wales have been united as one kingdom.

In 1707, the three countries were combined into the United Kingdom of Great Britain by the Act of the Union, endorsed by Queen Anne.

Interesting eh? Any comments on the timing of the debate?
