Answer:

It was not an easy task to transform Great Britain into a nation state. Many obstructions on the way made the task strenuous.

Explanation:

  • The United Kingdom (Britain) was divided into four specific regions.
  1. England- English speaking population
  2. Ireland- Irish speaking population
  3. Scotland - Scot speaking population
  4. Wales - Welsh speaking population
  • England grew powerful and extended its territorial boundaries. As a result, the people of England thought of themselves as superior and started to dominate others.
  • The Act of Union of 1707 unified England and Scotland followed by the formation of the ‘United Kingdom of Great Britain’.
  • The domination of the English led to subservience of the political and cultural identities of the Scots .
  • In 1801 there was a forceful occupation of Ireland which was inhabited by the Protestants and the Catholics. The English supported the Protestants whereas repressed the Catholic's majority community.
  • English language was dominated while Scotland and Ireland were considered as subordinate.
  • At last, after a long strange struggle without any sudden outcome, or a revolution; Great Britain was transformed into a 'Nation State'.

Hope you got that.

Thank You.

The Parliament passed the Act of Union, 1707, by which England and Scotland were unified resulting in the formation of the 'United Kingdom of Great Britain'. The Parliament was dominated by the English, and the political and cultural identities of the Scots were systematically suppressed.
