It is mainly famous from the time of Great Britain. We all know that the bow and arrow in the era of Great Britain was the longest in the world, not to mention the range, and it was beyond the reach of other countries in terms of troop arrangement.
Later, the invincible naval forces terrified the European countries, destroying the Spanish "Invincible Armada", then defeating the "sea coachman" Holland, and finally defeating France in the Seven Years' War in the late 18th century, and becoming the world hegemon. The Chinese used this analogy at that time, meaning that they ran faster than Chinese horses. In the 268th year of the Qing Dynasty, Britain was the first to reach the entrance of civilization, and in the next two centuries, Britain was the first to complete the bourgeois revolution, establish a constitutional monarchy, take the lead in completing the industrial revolution, and become the world's factory.
That's why it's the world's best. With the constitution.
With the improvement of the political system, the market economy system is maturing in Britain, the industrial revolution first occurred in Britain, and new technologies began to emerge. In 1765 Watt improved the steam engine, and in 1768 Arkwright.
The water-powered loom was invented, in 1779 Clapton invented the spindle loom, in 1784 Cartwright invented the power loom, and so on. It represents the theory of economic laissez-faire and the maturity of the market economy.
Adam? It was in 1776 that Smith's The Wealth of Nations was published. Britain's centuries-long history of prosperity fully proves the active role of constitutionalism in economic and social development.
It can be said that the constitutional road that Britain has taken is a success, its experience is valuable, and its impact on future generations is enormous. Studying the formation and development of the British constitutional system, you can better understand the rise of modern Britain, some of which I personally think, and some of whom I find information, I hope it will be helpful to you, and I am also quite interested in British history).

To put it simply: 1, the enclosure movement liberated the rural surplus labor force and provided a human base for the beginning of the industrial revolution!
2. The British political system was relatively stable, and the constitutional monarchy was the most advanced political system at that time, providing political support for the development of the Industrial Revolution!
3. The geographical location of the United Kingdom makes it convenient for the United Kingdom to travel to and from all over the world!
4. The British colonial plunder gained a lot of resources and benefits.
5. Britain's extensive colonies require Britain to export a large amount of capital and commodities to it, which also promotes the improvement of Britain's productivity!
6. The first industrial revolution gave a huge boost to the level of productivity in Britain, which was objectively influenced by the Renaissance movement!

According to reports, the United Kingdom will unveil a grand blueprint for the development of wind energy, planning to build the first 7,000 wind turbines in the British countryside and coastal areas. If implemented, the UK will overtake Denmark as the world's largest user of wind energy.
Previously, the UK had already set a target of reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 60% by 2050, and with the recent surge in international oil prices and the aging of British nuclear power plants, the UK has developed new energy sources.
The pressure is mounting. Brown was thus determined to overhaul the UK's energy mix.
In the forthcoming Energy Blueprint, it is planned to increase the proportion of renewables in the UK's overall energy mix to 15 by 2020, providing 1 3 of the country's electricity. In addition to continuing to promote the construction of new nuclear power plants, wind energy will be used as a "new force" for the use of renewable energy.
It is not necessary to change the landscape.
According to reports, the UK is the most wind-rich country in Europe, but the current wind power generation capacity is only one megawatt, and another 19 megawatts of wind power resources are planned. The forthcoming energy blueprint will also expand the use of wind energy, with the first 7,000 wind turbines already planned for use in rural and coastal areas for wind power generation. At the same time, the UK will soon overtake Denmark as the world's largest wind energy utilisation country, as the UK's wind energy utilisation is growing at an annual rate of 86%.
In order to achieve the goal of using renewable energy, it is "inevitable" to change the country's countryside, town scenery and even landform.
When it comes to wind energy construction, the UK** wants to attract private investment, and to this end, the Blueprint cites the Danish experience, noting that 80% of Denmark's wind turbines are owned by private and investment institutions. In addition to reducing pollution, wind power generation can also bring considerable economic and social benefits, with wind energy projects and related industries expected to create 160,000 new jobs in society by 2020.
**It is expected that the strong push for wind energy will also lead to investment in renewable energy. At present, there are only two major wind turbine producers in the UK, and their order backlogs are both two years away, which is far from meeting demand.

In addition to the reasons mentioned above, I think it is also due to the fact that the country has a fine democratic tradition, as early as the thirteenth century, the country had a parliament, which is not available in other countries!
At the same time, its unique geographical environment is also an important reason, an island country, navigation is an important capital for its survival, and it is also an important prerequisite for him to be able to walk in the forefront of the world in the age of sailing.

The UK was the first country in the world to put forward the concept of "creative industries", and it is also the first country in the world to promote the development of creative industries through policies, and the creative industries contribute more to the UK's GDP than the financial services industry.
The creative economy is also known as the creative industries, the innovation economy, the creative industries, the creative industries, etc. Refers to businesses that derive their development momentum from the creativity, skills and talents of individuals, as well as those that generate potential wealth and employment through the exploitation of intellectual property. The creative economy typically includes fashion design, film and video, interactive software,**, performing arts, publishing, software and computer services, television and radio, and more.
In addition, it includes Ninandan tourism, museums and art galleries, heritage and sports. Since the United Kingdom officially put forward the concept of "creative economy" in 1998, developed countries and regions have put forward a creative country or creativity-based economic development model, and the development of creative industries has been mentioned by developed countries or regions to the strategic level of development. At the same time, Western theorists have also taken the lead in setting off a wave of research on the creative economy.

The most important thing is that Britain established a relatively complete capitalist system, and at the same time, the first industrial revolution broke out and completed at the earliest, and the capitalist productive forces were greatly developed. In this way, at that time, Britain was the most advanced in the world in terms of productive forces and production relations, and naturally became the most powerful country at that time.
Of course, there are other objective reasons, the main thing is that Britain is an island country, which can continue to exert influence on Europe beyond European affairs. Britain's policy of glorious isolation effectively maintained the balance of power on the European continent for a considerable period of time, preventing the emergence of a superpower on the continent that could challenge Britain's status.

The geographical location is superior, and there are many traffic and business travel.
Navigation was developed, and in the 18th century it became a maritime hegemon.
The early development of capitalism, the early capitalist revolution, and the strong economic strength and wide colonies objectively played a role in promoting the spread of British culture.

Britain is also famous for its reputation in the post-Age of Discovery, the 18th and 19th centuries, when the sun never sets on the empire.
The biggest difference between England and Spain, the former overlord of the empire on which the sun never sets, is that the English are Puritans, and they value spiritual pursuits more than materialistic desires like the Spaniards. The Spaniards plundered countless ** in the Americas, and after they were transported home, they were just eating, drinking, having fun, expanding armaments, and squandering them. And the British paid more attention to the development and development of the colonies.
Therefore, even if the colonies became independent in the future, the British political and economic system would remain and would not be worn out in a short time. In addition, the earliest entry into the capitalist era and the earliest industrial revolution led to a sharp rise in Britain's national power, which strongly consolidated its influence on the world at that time.
