http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom (Thrown in because it adds confusion sometimes.)

Seriously. Look up these simple questions.

They are different.
England=England.
Britain=Great Britain (IIRC)=England+Scotland+Wales
United Kingdom=Great Britain+North Ireland

I think thats how it goes.

Britain is the island. England is part of the United Kingdom.

The island is named Britain, England is the name of a smaller section of the island that was once an independent kingdom

That's only because Canada and South America don't count as geographic locations.

Note: The above is facetious.

Jerry: What do you mean, 'what is it?' It's a country right next to Belgium.

George: No, that's the Netherlands.

Jerry: Holland is the Netherlands.

George: Then who are the Dutch?

We would all be one country, except for the fact that the Welsh and Scottish repeatedly prawned the English in battles, so they gave up and gave us our own countries.

England, Scotland and Wales are all constituent countries of the island of Great Britain. Great Britain is merely the largest island in the geographical area known as the British Isles, it is not a political region.

England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland were once independent countries which formed a union known as the United Kingdom. The full title - United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

England

Scotland

Wales

Great Britain

Add Northern Ireland to the mix and you have the United Kingdom.

Also, Ireland, Scotland and Wales are all Celtic nations, some people within these nations still hate the English after hundreds of years of bullying.

I prefer to call it small penis complex.

Wales technically isn't even a country. It's a Principality. That's why they ain't even on the UK flag (although it would be cool to have a big ugly fuck off red dragon on the flag)

You aren't even in Wales atm
