The Creator created the world and gave high mountains, transparent lakes and green forests to all countries. But, for some reason, he forgot about the Kazakh people. He left them with a huge steppe that stretched across the country. She was beautiful, but people were sad. Where were their mountains, lakes and forests? Where were their rivers, fish and wild animals?
Aldar Kose was cheeky, but very kind. He didn't want to see Kazakhs sad. And he decided to go and see the Creator himself.
"Oh, wise Creator!" said Aldar to Kos. "Kazakhs are kind people, why did you give them only the steppe? Can you give us mountains too?"
So the Creator gave the Kazakhs the Karatau Mountains.
Aldar kos looked carefully. He saw the Creator taking mountains out of the bag.
"So this is where the Creator keeps all the treasures!" Aldar thought to kos.
Quietly, Aldar spit crept up to the bag and made a hole there. And all the treasures fell out, mountains, lakes, forests, rivers and fish and wild animals too. They settled in Kazakhstan, right in the middle of the steppe. People were happy.
Now you can see all the treasures from the Creator's bag in one place in the Borovoye National Park.
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is situated on the British Isles. The British Isles consist of two large islands, Great Britain and Ireland, and above five thousand small islands. Their total area is over 315 000 square kilometers. The United Kingdom is made up of four countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Their capitals are London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast respectively.
The British isles are separated from the European continent by the North Sea and the English Channel. The western coast of Great Britain is washed by the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea. The surface of the British Isles varies very much. The north of Scotland is mountainous and is called Highlands, while the south, which has beautiful valleys and plains, is called Lowlands. The north and west of England are mountainous, but all the rest - east, center and southeast - is a vast plain. Mountains are not very high. Ben Nevis is the highest mountain. (1343 m.)
There are a lot of rivers in GB, but they are not very long. The Severn is the longest river, while the Thames is the deepest and the most important one.

The British Parliament consists of two chambers: the House of Lords and the House of Commons.
There are three main political parties in Great Britain: the Labour, the Conservative and the Liberal parties. The Liberal party is the ruling party nowadays.
