  1. I live in Wales, in the city of Swansea to be exact. Basically the United Kingdom is a unitary state which means that power is centralised to parliament even though there are 4 different states within the untited kingdom. These consist of Wales, Northern Ireland, England and Scotland. We have our own language (Welsh) and it's the oldest language in Europe. Coincidently we also hate the English as do Scotland and Northern Ireland due to the oppression and heavy taxes they put on us during medieval times and the fact they tried to wipe out our culture even up to the beggining of the 20th century. So there we have it in a nutshell. It also rains alot, and the women are easy.


  2. The Welsh economy used to be coal, Slate and steel but now loads of them have come over the bridge to England and you will find most Walsh in south Wales are very nice people except for the minority, its when you go towards north wales they are ignorant as if you speak English they will start specking in there own language so you cant understand them..

  3. Compared to the rest of the United Kingdom, the Welsh economy ranks near the bottom--the 10th most productive region out of 12 administrated areas;  the Welsh economy when ranked separately from the UK as a whole, however, is the 43rd largest world economy--which is not bad considering that Wales is about the size of El Salvador or Massachusetts.  The Service sector (66 percent) predominates as opposed to the heavy industry and manufacturing jobs (32 percent) that were once traditionally associated with Wales:  mining, oil refineries, and automotive components.  Agriculture, forestry, and fishing only make up 1.5 percent of the economy.
