The British Empire is all but gone, with the last major overseas territory, Hong Kong, becoming a special administrative region of China in 1997.

Scotland was an independent country until 1707, when the Union with England Act was passed. Scotland is now part of the United Kingdom, with England, Wales and Northern Ireland. However, Scotland has a devolved national Parliament and, for example, an educational system and a legal system that are separate from those of England and Wales.
