Synopsis

It covers less than half of one percent of the earth's land mass, but is responsible for more than 40% of the world's great inventions. The first car, the first train and aeroplane came from Great Britain as did the steam engine, the jet engine, the engine of the internet, the first computer, the first telephone, the first TV, the first lightbulb and the first loo roll. Britain's agricultural and industrial revolutions changed the way the world ate and worked and the legal system set the precedent for many others, Truly Britain is great, and this explains why.
