Parliament of Great Britain
The
Parliament of Great Britain
was formed in 1707 following the ratification of the
Acts of Union
by both the
Parliament of England
and the
Parliament of Scotland
. The Acts created a new unified
Kingdom of Great Britain
and dissolved the separate English and Scottish parliaments in favour of a single parliament, located in the former home of the English parliament in the
Palace of Westminster
, near the
City of London
. This lasted nearly a century, until the
Acts of Union 1800
merged the separate British and Irish Parliaments into a single
Parliament of the United Kingdom
with effect from 1 January 1801.
