The political culture of the United Kingdom has been described by the political scientists Gabriel Almond and Sidney Verba (1963) as a deferential civic culture. In the United Kingdom, factors such as class and regionalism[1] and the nation's history such as the legacy of the British Empire impact on political culture.
Factors which have shaped British political culture
- Geography: Britain's position as an island nation
- Religion: A Christian tradition
- History: The gradual evolution of the political system rather than revolution
