What's this UGLE I see all the time?

In the 1700s, the Grand Lodge began making changes to the ritual. Some
Lodges didn't like these modernizations and so splintered off to form
a Grand Lodge of Ancient Masons. Three quarters of a century later,
the two Grand Lodges united to form the United Grand Lodge of England.

The UGLE and the moderns Grand Lodge are considered by many to be the
birthplace of the Freemasonry we know today, but they don't enjoy any
authority over any other Grand Lodges around the world.
