England is a constituent country of the United Kingdom, occupying the largest and most populated share of the island of Great Britain, which it shares with Scotland and Wales. Historically, England has been the most powerful of the British nations, frequently imposing its will on its neighbours, and in the modern day union state, it continues that tradition.
