You can call any major city a metropolis, but have not hear too many people use that word (where I live).
I think it's dumb how we have separate football teams, but then for the olympics and such it's "GB" and then in tennis and F1 etc.. they're british not the specific countries, it's all so inconsistent when it comes to sport over here.1927 wrote:

Then you get shit like how we won't even get to play football at the olympics in 2012 because the Scottish/Welsh FA's don't want it because it might marginalise their power in the international football governing things. The god damn host of the games not playing its god damn national sport, how retarded is that.
isnt england, wales, scotland etc pretty much the same thing?
i know england is generally the most superior and has gone on and off with throwing you guys around etc.

Right now England gets screwed over by the other countries. Basically subsidising them like a motherfucker. Then you also have the fact that the other countries have their own governments aswell as the UK one, whereas England only has the UK one.
It would be better for England if Scotland/Wales/N.Ireland became independent. They're like dead weight.

Not really, there's a lot of businesses setting/set up in Wales due to tax incentives etc, splitting up the UK will never happen (except maybe NI, but still, that's a long shot) it just doesn't make sense in terms of military, workforce etc.Mekstizzle wrote:

Internationally the UK is recognized as one sovereign state instead of four. So yeah Scotland doesn't get a vote in the UN. Neither does dragon flag.
But yeah its a bit messed up when it comes to sports =/
Ireland is by itself, they won independence in the early 1900s afaik.
Eh, it's like Quebec in Canada. They bitch about having their own culture and continually affirm that they are their own nation and thus should have their own autonomous state. Nobody takes them seriously, though, every rational person knows they would simply not have the infrastructure, industry, or policy programs to become a functioning state. It's just a pipe-dream they don't seem to want to let go of. Same thing in Scotland and Wales, IMO.Cybargs wrote:

Sure, for politcal and UN and all that shit, it's one kingdom, but Scotland, Wales and NI are fully-fledged countries.Cybargs wrote:

No, US states are not countries.
England would be fucked if our taxes went into our countries, same with the economy etc. The Government said this, not us.
Fifty sovereign states joined in union as the United States of America. But yeah, when a relatively small island has more than one country on it, that ought to tell you something

Not by a long shot, Football is the national sport, it's played by pretty much every young boy, or atleast was when I was growing up, Cricket isn't as popular.ruisleipa wrote:
