2. Complete the article about the UK.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is situated on the British Isles, in north–western Europe. Its capital city is London. The climate there is temperate, so it is not very cold or hot during the year.
The UK is a union that consists of four countries: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
Although it is still a monarchy, the King is more of a symbol and has mainly ceremonial duties now. The rules are made by Parliament. The official language is English, but you are also welcome to learn and speak other languages like Welsh in Wales or Irish in Northern Ireland, for example.
The population of the UK today is about 67 million people, and a person from there is called a Briton (or simply a Brit). Brits are known for their politeness, love of tea, and sense of humour.
