location Western Europe,

islands including the northern one-sixth of the island of Ireland between the North Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea, northwest of France

Economy United Kingdom a leading trading power, and financial

center. Over the past two decades, the government has greatly reduced public ownership and contained the growth of social welfare programs. Agriculture is intensive, highly mechanized, and efficient by European standards, producing about 60% of food and with less than 2% of the labor force. The UK has large coal, natural gas, and oil resources, but its oil and natural gas are declining and the UK became a net importer of energy in 2005. Services, banking, insurance, and business services, account by far for the largest proportion of GDP while industry continues to decline in importance. Since emerging from recession in 1992, Britain's economy enjoyed the longest period of expansion on record during which time growth outpaced most of Western Europe.
