A bit of Britain History Hello guys! I'm writting again and I want to tell you which book that I'm reading. Its name is "A History of Britain" by Fiona Beddall, published by Penguin Readers and I've read until chapter 2. I've learnt about the arrival of the Romans to the island, Angles and Saxons (who went from the actually lands of Germany and Denmark), the invasion of Vikings and the Normans. This was in the chapter 1 but in the chapter 2 I learnt about countries that conform the United Kingdom I've known a bit history of these couentries but now I am able to say more of them. In my opinion, the most interesting history was the Irish because It was really important how Ireland has separated in two parts, the Protestant and the Catholic. At the same time, the reasons of the fights during seven centuries when in 1922 Ireland finally had won the independence of United Kingdom. Tomorrow, I'll continue with the book and I'll start the chapter 3. I'm going to write you the next days. Kisses!

A bit of British History

Hello guys!
I'm writing again and I want to tell you which book I've been reading. Its name is "A History of Britain" by Fiona Beddall, published by Penguin Readers and I've read up to chapter 2. I've learnt about the arrival of the Romans, Angles and Saxons to the island (who actually came from the lands of Germany and Denmark), and the invasion by the Vikings and the Normans. This was in the chapter 1 but in chapter 2 I learnt about countries that conform the United Kingdom. I know a bit of history of these countries but now I am able to say more of them.
In my opinion, the most interesting history was the Irish because it was really important how Ireland has separated in two parts, the Protestant and the Catholic. At the same time, the reasons of the fights during seven centuries when in 1922 Ireland finally had won the independence of United Kingdom.
Tomorrow, I'll continue with the book and I'll start the chapter 3.

Hello guys!
I'm writing again and I want to tell you which book I'm reading. Its name is "A History of Britain" by Fiona Beddall, published by Penguin Readers and I've read to chapter 2. I've learnt about the arrival of the Romans to the island, Angles and Saxons (who came from what are now known as the lands of Germany and Denmark), the invasion of Vikings and the Normans. This was in chapter 1 but in chapter 2 I learnt about the countries that formed the United Kingdom. I'd known a bit of history of these countries but now I am able to say more about them.
In my opinion, the most interesting history was the Irish because it was really important how Ireland has separated into two parts, the Protestant and the Catholic. At the same time, the reasons for the fights for seven centuries until in 1922, Ireland finally won independence from the United Kingdom.
Tomorrow, I'll continue with the book and I'll start chapter 3.
I'm going to write to you over the next days.
Kisses!

Pretty good overall. Two things:

If there's a number after "chapter", then you don't need "the" before it. If you're saying "I read the chapter" without a number, then you use "the", but if you mention the number, "I read chapter three", then you don't use "the".

Also, "actually" in English is more like realmente or verdaderamente than actualmente. Actualmente is "currently", "at present", "now", or "nowadays". The phrase I changed it to is commonly used when you're talking about something that had a different name in the time you're talking about (when they arrived in the British Isles), but you want to use the modern name.
