England / Scotland
A very interesting three-page account of Hadrian’s Wall – much of which is still the land border between England and Scotland after 1,900 years.
An incredible feat of engineering, the wall spans 73 miles and was constructed in six years by around 15,000 Roman soldiers. It’s rather like a mini version of the Great Wall of China.
