QUE SIGNIFIE SOMERSET EN ANGLAIS

Somerset

Somerset

Somerset est un cérémonial et, avec une zone géographique plus petite, un comté non-métropolitain administratif dans le sud-ouest de l'Angleterre. Il borde Bristol et Gloucestershire au nord, Wiltshire à l'est, Dorset au sud-est, et Devon au sud-ouest. Il est en partie délimité au nord et à l'ouest par le canal de Bristol et l'estuaire de la rivière Severn. Sa frontière traditionnelle du nord est la rivière Avon, mais la frontière administrative s'est creusée vers le sud avec la création et l'expansion de la ville de Bristol et, plus tard, le comté d'Avon et ses autorités unitaires successives au nord. La ville du comté de Somerset, Taunton, se trouve au sud. Somerset est un comté rural de collines ondulées telles que les collines Blackdown, Mendip Hills, Quantock Hills et Exmoor National Park et de vastes étendues de terrains, dont les Somerset Levels. Il existe des preuves de l'occupation humaine des temps paléolithiques et de la colonisation ultérieure dans les périodes romaine et anglo-saxonne. Le comté a joué un rôle important dans la consolidation du pouvoir et l'élévation du roi Alfred le Grand, et plus tard dans la guerre civile anglaise et la rébellion de Monmouth. L'agriculture est une entreprise importante dans le comté.

Somerset is a ceremonial and, with a smaller geographic area, an administrative non-metropolitan county in South West England. It borders Bristol and Gloucestershire to the north, Wiltshire to the east, Dorset to the south-east, and Devon to the south-west. It is partly bounded to the north and west by the Bristol Channel and the estuary of the River Severn. Its traditional northern border is the River Avon, but the administrative boundary has crept southward with the creation and expansion of the City of Bristol, and latterly the county of Avon and its successor unitary authorities to the north. Somerset's county town, Taunton, is in the south. Somerset is a rural county of rolling hills such as the Blackdown Hills, Mendip Hills, Quantock Hills and Exmoor National Park, and large flat expanses of land including the Somerset Levels. There is evidence of human occupation from Palaeolithic times, and of subsequent settlement in the Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods. The county played a significant part in the consolidation of power and rise of King Alfred the Great, and later in the English Civil War and the Monmouth Rebellion. Agriculture is a major business in the county.
