What is the dance of England?

The dance of England is the Morris Dance or better known as the traditional folk dancing of England. Its origins can be traced back to the mid-15th century, where dancers performed intricate steps, acrobatic feats, and wore distinctively colorful costumes. With time, Morris Dancing evolved into various region-specific styles, each having its own dances, music, and choreography. In England, the Cotswold Morris is particularly famous, where dancers form teams to perform coordinated and lively dances.
