The land of Britain was once considered a myth by the mighty Roman Empire. To them, it was nothing more than an old legend.
This changed in the year 55 BC when Julius Caesar set his sights on this fabled island and sailed towards its shores. The historical discovery ended in defeat, but almost a century later, the Romans found glory when Emperor Claudius stepped foot on British soil.
The Romans conquered magnificent castles and cities, leaving their mark on the land. They set their eyes on Stonehenge, using the sacred site for their worship and rituals. Londinium was established, and the Romans seized control of the land.
But what happened next in the history of the United Kingdom? To understand the story of this fascinating land, we must start from the very beginning.
From prehistoric times and the Stone Age settlements, through the Norman Conquest, to the rise of the British Empire and the modern era, the UK has played a pivotal role in shaping world history. The Magna Carta laid the foundations for democracy, while the Industrial Revolution spurred global progress. The Victorian era saw the British Empire spread over a quarter of the globe, with its influence so vast it was said the sun never set on it.
