In 1707, the Acts of Union united England and Scotland; the term "the United Kingdom" appears in the Acts, but the official name was "Great Britain." in 1801 the nation officialy became "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland." In 1927 it was changed to "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland," as a result of the independance of the Irish Free State.
