BRITISH TOPICS (3) (SYMBOLS)

In the world there are many symbols. In Spain we have the Legion’s goat, in US Uncle Sam, but what about British?
The bulldog symbolises britishness. Sometimes bulldogs are associated to Winston Churchill, because he had one as pet.
Britannia is the female personification for Great Britain. Britannia is the name written in Latin.
John Bull is the person who symbolizes the typical conservative British personality. It is like Uncle Sam in the US. It is not a real man. It is a middle aged man, wearing the Union Jack as a waistcoat (chaleco).
Continuing with clothes, the costume that has been worn for more than five hundred years is the Morris dancing costume. By the way, if you look with attention you can find some movements like Vasque Countrys traditional dances.
