Wales is one of four countries of the United Kingdom, bordering England to the east and with coastline on the Irish Sea and the Bristol Channel. Wales has been inhabited by humans for thousands of years. Romans occupied Wales for about 300 years beginning about AD48 followed by Anglo-Saxons. In 1284, Wales was annexed by England but remained separate with independent kingdoms. In 1536 with the Act of Union, Wales became a legal integral part of the kingdom of England.
The government of the UK is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy with a queen as chief of state and a prime minister as head of government. The parliament consists of the House of Lords and the House of Commons. The local government of Wales includes a first minister and the National Assembly which is responsible for economic planning and development, health, education, transportation, and tourism.
Prior to World War I, Wales was known for the mining and export of coal and was one of the world’s leading industrial areas. The Welsh economy suffered during the Great Depression and the coal and steel industries collapsed in the late 20th century. By the end of the 20th century, the Welsh economy became diversified with tourism as a strong sector. Tourist attractions include castles and museums, national parks, beautiful scenery, and variety of outdoor sports.
