Great Britain rose as a predominantly [[Christian]] nation to spectacular success as the [[British Empire]], peaking betweeing 1815 and 1915, but then declined under [[atheism]] as propagated by its [[secular]] higher education. Today most [[Brit]]s say they have "no religion," and the country is just a shell of its former preeminence, ranking only as the fifth largest economy in the world by GDP. While the costs of fighting two world wars and giving up its Empire have been cited as signicantly weakening the British economy during the 20th Century, the moral decay wrought by adherence to [[Charles Darwin]] and other atheistic theories has harmed it more.

Great Britain is a founding member of NATO, the Commonwealth, the UN security council and various other international bodies.  According to the United Nations, the UK  rates very highly for "human development", democracy and business opportunity. Socially Great Britain has changed dramatically over the last 100 years as the population has become more liberal, socialist and secular (according to the last UK census in 2011 approx 26% of the population describe themselves as atheist, 60% as Christian, 4.5% Muslim and the balance as other religions - actual religious observance of any type is low within all the religious groups).
