    What is the difference between the United Kingdom, Great Britain, and England?

    The United Kingdom is a country that consists of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. In fact, the official name of the country is "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland."

    Great Britain is the name of the island northwest of France and east of Ireland that consists of three somewhat autonomous regions: England, Wales and Scotland.

    Therefore, England is part of Great Britain, which is part of the United Kingdom. The U.K. includes England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland are not countries but the United Kingdom is. The remaining portion of the island of Ireland (that which is not the U.K.'s Northern Ireland) is an independent country called the Republic of Ireland (Eire).

    I never knew that.

        They are countries just not independant, to my knowledge anyway. They all have their geographical lines, their own governments and educational systems. However they all share an economy and the UK is recognised as the represntive nation at a international stage.

        Im not sure its as simple as the open post suggests.

                    My aunt is from Glasgow.

                    She doesn't consider herself British, only calls herself Scottish.
