The parliaments of England and Scotland were merged in 1707 to form the United Kingdom. When Ireland was included in 1801, it became the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland until 1922 when the island of Ireland (except for six counties in the northeast of the island) became an independent country again.

When did United Kingdom become independent?

England has existed as a unified entity since the 10th century. The union between England and Wales, begun in 1284 with the Statute of Rhuddlan, was not formalized until 1536 with an Act of Union. In another Act of Union in 1707, England and Scotland agreed to permanently join as Great Britain. The legislative union of Great Britain and Ireland was implemented in 1801, with the adoption of the name the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The Anglo-Irish treaty of 1921 formalized a partition of Ireland. Six northern Irish counties remained part of the United Kingdom as Northern Ireland and the current name of the country, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, was adopted in 1927...that is so incorrectthe right answer has to do with when your mom was born

What is meant by geographical unity How it differ from political unity?

Places are geographically unified when they're not separated by major obstacles, like mountain ranges or bodies of water. Places are politically unified when they are ruled by a single government. Hawaii is not geographically unified with the continental US, but they are politically unified as they share the same federal government. Northern Ireland and Ireland are geographically unified, the border is entirely artificial with no geographic features separating them, but they have different governments that do not intersect at any level. Therefore they are not politically unified.


Why did Northen Ireland remain part of United Kingdom?

Northern Ireland has never been part of Great Britain. Great Britain is the island with England, Wales and Scotland on it. Northern Ireland is on the island of Ireland. They are two separate island that have never been part of each other. What you are referring to is the United Kingdom, which is England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. A majority of people in the northern part of Ireland did not want to exit the United Kingdom in 1922. So there was a partition of the island creating what we now know as Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Northern Ireland stayed within the United Kingdom.
