Introduction:- Historians consider UK unification as the best model of unification as in this unification, wars didn't occurred. Only some argument held between the states. It was result of a long drawn process. ____________________________Explanation:- The steps of unification are://// 1) The English parliament which has seized power from monarchy in 1688 was the instrument through which a nation state with England at its center came to be forged. → 2) The Act of union (1707) between England and Scotland that resulted in the formation of the 'United kingdom of Great Britain' meant, in effect, that England was able to impose its influence on Scotland as the English members were more in number in Parliament→ 3) Due to this, England dominated over Scotland on all aspects. Ireland also suffered a similar fate. → 4) After a failed revolt led by Wolfe Tone and his United Irishmen (1798), Ireland was forcibly incorporated into the United Kingdom in 1801. Thus, a new 'British nation' was forged through the propagation of a dominant English culture. __________________________________ NOTE:- The symbols of new Britain–the British flag(Union Jack), the national anthem (God save our Noble King), the English language–were actively promoted and the older nations survived only as subordinate partners in this union.

Unification of Britain: 

(i) Britain was not a nation state prior to 18th century. The primary identities were based on ethnicity such as English, Welsh, Scot or Irish. 

(ii) The steady growth of power made the English nation extend its influence over the other nations and islands.

(iii) In 1688, England established as a nation state. English parliament seized power from the monarchy. 

(iv) In 1707, the United Kingdom of Great Britain formed with the Act of the Union between England and Scotland. 

(v) England dominated Scotland and Ireland in all spheres. British Parliament was dominated by English members. 

(vi) Ireland was forcibly taken by the British after the failed revolution led by Wolfe and his United Irishmen (1798) and a new "British Nation" was formed.

In Britain, the formation of a nation-state was not the result of a sudden upheaval, revolution or national struggle but of a long drawn out parliamentary process. The process of unification of Britain is as follows: 1 Britain was not a nation-state prior to 18th century. England had people of many ethnic groups such as English, Welsh, Scot and Irish with their own cultural and political traditions.  2 The English nation steadily grew in importance, wealth and power and extended her influence over other nations of the island. 3 In 1688, England established as a nation-state. English parliament seized power from the monarchy. 4 In 1707 the Act of Union between England and Scotland led to the formation of the ‘United Kingdom of Great Britain’. 5 England dominated Scotland and Ireland in all spheres. British Parliament was dominated by English members. 6 Ireland was forcibly taken by the British after the failed revolution led by Wolfe and his United Irishmen (1798) and a new "British Nation" was formed.
