Fun Facts About the United Kingdom
- The name of a small Welsh town, Llanfairpwllgwyngyll-gogerychwyrndrobwlllllandysiliogogogoch, is the longest name of a town in the world. But you can call it just Llanfairpwll.
- The British really love tea - they consume about 100 million cups of tea every day, which gives approx 36 billion cups a year!
- King/Queen is also the only person from the United Kingdom who doesn’t need to have a passport in order to travel. Why? According to the Royal Family website, as a British passport is issued in the name of His/Her Majesty, it’s unnecessary for The Queen/King to possess one.
- Stonehenge is older than the Pyramids, it’s believed to be created in around 3000 B.C., meaning it’s older than Egypt’s pyramids, which were built around 2550 B.C.
- London was the first city in the world to have an underground subway system.
