Nomenclature
I've added a Cantonese translation of 'England' to this section; however, it doesn't include tones and I'm not sure the romanisation is right. Anyone in the know, please check! John Stephenson 04:09, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
small changes
I made a few small changes: dropped some red links, dropped a couple unnecessary footnotes, clarified legal and political influence on states of former Empire, and mentioned some of those states (the United States, Canada, India and South Africa, adopted English Law and variations of the parliamentary system that has operated for 1000 years, as well as commitments to individual rights that were first established by the Magna Charta of 1215.)
