POSITION OF GREAT BRITAIN)

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is situated on the British Isles and lies to the north-west of continental Europe. It is separated from the continent by the English Channel and the Strait of Dover in the south and the North Sea in the east. In everyday speech the term “Great Britain” is often applied to the United Kingdom as a whole.

The British Isles consist of two main islands (Great Britain and Ireland) and a large group of smaller islands. Great Britain is separated from Ireland by the Irish Sea. Historically the territory of Great Britain is divided into 3 parts: England, Scotland and Wales. It doesn’t include Northern Ireland. The population of Great Britain is over 60 million people. The total area is 209 000 km2 (two hundred and nine thousand square kilometers).

The British landscape is very varied. Geographically the island of Great Britain is made up of three main regions: Lowland, Midland and Highland Britain. The Midlands occupy central counties of England. This is a region of valleys and low hills. Lowland Britain covers the territory of eastern and southern England. Highland Britain comprises Scotland, most of Wales, the Pennine Chain and the Lake District in England. Scotland and Wales are the most mountainous parts of Great Britain. Ben Nevis in Scotland is the highest point (1343 metres). Along the western coast runs the mountain range of Cumberland. The Cheviot Hills mark the boundary between England and Scotland.

The rivers in Great Britain are quite short and most of them flow in the eastward direction. The rivers (the Thames, the Severn, the Tweed, the Trent, the Tyne) never freeze in winter and allow all-year navigation.

Ukraine is situated in the south-east of Europe. It borders on Russia, Belarus, Moldova, Slovakia, Hungary, Poland and Romania. The territory of Ukraine is 603 700 км2. The territory of Ukraine is mostly flat. There are the Carpathian Mountains in the west and the Crimean Mountains in the south, but they are not high. The main rivers are the Dnieper, the Dniester, the Buh, the Donets and others. The Dnieper is one of the longest European rivers and one of the main sources of hydroelectric power in the country. The coasts of the Azov Sea and the Black Sea are good for ports. We have quite a lot of big sea ports, for example, Odesa, Kherson, Mykolaiv, Izmail, Mariupol and Kerch. The geographical position of Ukraine is very favorable because the country lies on the crossroads of the ways from Asia to Europe. Since the times of Kyivan Rus Ukrainian roads have been used for trade contacts. Due to favorable climatic conditions, Ukraine is traditionally an agricultural country. Wheat, maize and other corns, vegetables, all kinds of fruit are grown here. The country is rich in natural resources, such as iron ore, coal, non-ferrous metals, oil, gas. It has developed a varied industry, concentrated mostly in and around big cities such as Kyiv, Zaporizhia, Dnipropetrovsk, Odesa, Kharkiv, Lviv, Mykolaiv and others. Ukraine produces planes and ships, and lorries buses, electronic equipment and agricultural machines, TV and radio-sets and other goods.

Answer 2

Ukraine and the United Kingdom, two vastly different nations, are both remarkable in their own right due to their unique geographical situations. Ukraine, often referred to as the "breadbasket of Europe," boasts a sprawling landscape characterized by vast plains, lush forests, and the towering Carpathian Mountains to the west. Its geographic diversity includes the picturesque shores of the Black Sea in the south and the pristine lakes of the north. My visit to Ukraine left me captivated by its natural beauty, from the colorful fields of sunflowers to the charming villages nestled in the Carpathians. In contrast, the United Kingdom, an island nation, is defined by its maritime geography. It comprises four distinct countries: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. The rugged coastlines, rolling hills, and dramatic cliffs of the British Isles are nothing short of breathtaking. During my travels in the UK, I was enchanted by the lush green landscapes of Scotland, the historical charm of English villages, and the rugged beauty of the Welsh countryside. Each country within the UK offers a unique geographical experience, making it a treasure trove for any traveler. Whether wandering the Ukrainian plains or exploring the diverse landscapes of the UK, both countries offer unforgettable natural beauty that stays etched in one's memory.
