In the post-Brexit era, how does the UK position itself, and how should we view the UK? When the Brexiteers won the referendum in 2016, they celebrated that Britain would "take back control" and resume its global role that was interrupted by its original membership of the EU. Britain seems to have a chance to regain its former glory and once again become the savior of Europe. However, as the years have passed, the negotiations have continued to stall. Not only has the future of Britain after Brexit become increasingly difficult to predict, but the narrative of Britain's past has also been shrouded in mystery. According to David Reynolds, professor at Cambridge University and historian of international relations, whether it is the disputes before Brexit or the confusion after Brexit, it has a lot to do with how people tell the story of Britain. He decided to re-examine four glorious and magnificent British stories. It is these seemingly beautiful stories that implanted misunderstandings about millennia of history into the hearts of British people, covered up the problems and darkness, and shaped the Brexit dispute. These four stories with the themes of "Decline", "Europe", "Britain" and "Empire" are also four clues to understanding Britain. When we look at a wider space and a longer time, we can see the acquisition and loss of British hegemony, the connection and estrangement with Europe, the merger and separation within the United Kingdom, and the glory and shadow of global empire, and we will gain some historical wisdom needed in the changing pattern.
