So, this has been bugging me for a while. Could one of you kindly explain the differances between:

United Kingdom
Brittain
England

Chris already explained this before, Jim... I'll see if I can find the post. I just know that the United Kingdom is Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and England.

Northern Ireland, Neo. Northern Ireland.

The United Kingdom is all that. Great Britain is all that minus Northern Ireland. England is just England.

You don't have to be British to answer basic geography questions. You just have to not be a victim of the American educational system. ;)

So here's the full name for you to help remember: The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

I'm not British, but I know this:

United Kingdom: Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, England, British Isles
Great Britain: Scotland, Wales, England and sometimes also the British Isles
England: England... (southern part of Great Britain excluding Wales)

Just don't ever call someone Irish British or someone Welsh or Scottish English.
Oh yeah Englands the best bit.

I'm going to go to Scotland and call them "English" and see how many fights I can start. Then I'm going to go Ireland and call them "British" and "English" and see how many fights I can start. Then I'm going to England and start calling people "Americans".

I'm no nationalist I just live in the best part of Britain. I wonder if most people over here would rather be regarded as Europeans or Americans.
Leave Londoners alone we're the best part of Britain.
And if Brits were Americans at least we would have been able to stop Bush winning the election in 2000 and in 2004.

yeah, i suppose if you are not british then you wont actually be taught this.

for some reason Americans and such have taken to calling the U.K "England" and that is fine with me but it pisses off the scots and the welsh because they feel that no-one cares about them, which is not. . . . . . completely. . . true.

the U.K is just a union of 4 countries working together as one for mutual benefit.

it just happened because about 500 years ago, king james 1st of scotland ( i think it was him) was king of all 4 at the same time and he decided to unite them.
