Where it is England is perhaps the country most people first think of when they think of the United Kingdom. It borders both Scotland and Wales and almost 50 million people live in there, which is over 80% of the UK’s total population.

London is one of the most well known cities in the world and for many is representative of the whole of England, if not the whole of the UK.
