No article

#We usually use no article to talk about things in general:-

ex:   Inflation is rising.

        People are worried about rising crime. (Note! People generally, so no article)

#You do not use an article when talking about sports.

 For example:

        My son plays football.

        Tennis is expensive.

#You do not use an article before uncountable nouns when talking about them generally.

For example:

         Information is important to any organisation.

         Coffee is bad for you.

#You do not use an article before the names of countries except where they indicate multiple areas or  contain the words (state(s), kingdom, republic, union). Kingdom, state, republic and union are nouns, so they need an article.

  For example:

                        No article - Italy, Mexico, Bolivia, England

                        Use the - the UK (United Kingdom), the USA (United States of America), the 
                        Irish Republic

                        Multiple areas! the Netherlands, the Philippines, the British Isles
