The name "Brexit" is a [portmanteau](https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portmanteau "Portmanteau") of "British" and "exit". On 23 June 2016, the UK made a [referendum that asked whether the UK should leave the EU](https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_United_Kingdom_European_Union_membership_referendum "2016 United Kingdom European Union membership referendum"). The result was that 51.9% of the [UK electorate](https://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Electoral_roll&action=edit&redlink=1 "Electoral roll (not yet started)") (the main region of the UK) voted that the UK should leave the EU. The rest wanted the UK to stay in the EU. On 29 March 2017, the [UK government](https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_of_the_United_Kingdom "Government of the United Kingdom") said that they will definitely be leaving the EU. This started the procedure of Article 50 of the [Treaty on European Union](https://simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Treaty_on_European_Union&action=edit&redlink=1 "Treaty on European Union (not yet started)"), a law that deals with countries that leave the EU.
