The essay “On Seeing England for the first Time” by Jamaica Kincaid is the author’s story of the first time she heard of England and whatever she perceived about how the country would be. She thought of the place being heaven on earth with all the rewards that was told to her to be there. All her life she wished to be in the place she saw and wished to see just from the map. Even before getting to the place, she was already occupied with the things that happened there. The kind of meals they had at her place all was an influence of England (Kincaid, 1991).

As I was walking back to the farmhouse for breakfast, I met Dad, who had come back from the markets. He stopped the truck beside me and wouldn’t look me straight in the eye. That was when I knew there was something wrong. He wordlessly passed a brown envelope out of the truck window. “GOVERNMENT OF NEW ZEALAND” was emblazoned in bold red print across the front. My heart lurched, constricting my throat. As I opened it, my worst fear was confirmed. In small lettering it announced, “Mr Michael Jones, we need you to protect our country.”
A monarchy is a form of government in which a single individual holds all the power in government.

In 1867 the British North America Act was established and formed the Dominion of Canada by Queen Victoria. Since then Canada has grown to have its own customs and traditions but Britain’s crown is unitary throughout all jurisdictions in Canada.
