other three directions: the Welsh Channel to the south, St George's Channel to the west, and the Irish Sea to the north. There are many bays, peninsulas, cliffs and beaches, together Wales has almost 2000 km of coastline. There are several islands off the Welsh mainland, the largest being Anglesey in the northwest. About 3 million people live in Wales. The main population and industrial areas are in South Wales, consisting of the cities of Cardiff (also the capital), Swansea and Newport and surrounding areas. Much of Wales' beautiful and diverse landscape is mountainous. It has two major mountain systems: the Black Mountains and the Brecon Beacon in the south and the mountains of Snowdonia in the south. The highest mountains in Wales are in Snowdonia and include Snowdon, which at 1085 m (3,560 ft) is the highest peak in Wales. Welsh flag has a red dragon on a white and green background. It is not
of the young". Trudgill (2001) approaches the question with an apparent reserve and justifies his point of view in practical terms; the present sociolinguistic conditions are not favourable for EE to spread in the whole of the UK. First of all, London is not the only large urban centre; therefore it has not exclusive rights to influence the speech in all the regions of the country. Next, such centres as Belfast, Dublin, Cardiff, Glasgow, Newcastle, Nottingham, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham and Bristol have been reported to focus the accents around them. And last but not least, "There is no parallel here to the nationwide network of residential Public Schools which gave rise to RP." The last argument has been challenged by Parsons (1998: 63-64): "there seems to be no need for this, if EE grows on the substrate of RP. If at one time in the future

Politically, Great Britain may also refer to the island itself together with a number of surrounding islands which comprise the territory of England, Scotland and Wales. All of the island is territory of the sovereign state of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and most of the United Kingdom's territory is in Great Britain. Most of England, Scotland, and Wales are on the island of Great Britain, as are their respective capital cities: London, Edinburgh, and Cardiff. The Kingdom of Great Britain resulted from the political union of the kingdoms of England and Scotland with the Acts of Union 1707 on 1 May 1707 under Queen Anne. In 1801, under a new Act of Union, this kingdom merged with the Kingdom of Ireland to create the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. After the Irish War of Independence most of Ireland seceded from the Union, which then became the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

With an area of 229,848 km2, it is the largest island of the British Isles, the largest island in Europe and the ninth-largest in the world. It is surrounded by over 1,000 smaller islands. The island is part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, constituting most of its territory: most of England, Scotland, and Wales are on the island, with their respective capital cities, London, Edinburgh, and Cardiff. (wikipedia, 2015) The Kingdom of Great Britain resulted from the Union of Scotland and England in 1707. More than a hundred years before, in 1603, King James VI, King of Scots, had inherited the throne of England, but it was not until 1707 that the Parliaments of the two countries agreed to form a single kingdom. Subsequently, in 1801, Great Britain united with the neighboring Kingdom of Ireland, forming the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. When five-sixths of
Yet men have solved mysteries far more abstruse. Why hasn't anyone unriddled this? The reason, Manly said, is that "the attack has proceeded on false assumptions. We do not, in fact, know when the manuscript was written, or where, or what language lies at the basis of the encipher- ment. When the correct hypotheses are applied, the cipher will perhaps reveal itself as simple and easy. . . ." Is it, then, just a gigantic hoax, like the Cardiff giant or the Piltdown man or the fossils of Professor Beringer? Nobody involved with it seems to think so—and this includes those who have been rebuffed by it. The work is too well organized, too extensive, too homogeneous. Nothing repeats larger than a group of five words, whereas in actual hoaxes, such as the fake hieroglyphic papyri sometimes sold to tourists in Egypt, much longer phrases are repeated. Moreover, the words in the text recur,
