  • UK: England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales

    Great Britain: England, Scotland, Wales

    England: A lot of counties like Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire, Lincolnshire, Greater London, Derby, Nottingham, Yorkshire, Cambridge, Liverpool, Manchester(I've seen it as Greater Manchester, might be 2 different things), if I forgot any counties where you are from, I am sorry, etc...

    Scotland: A lot of counties too, like Ayrshire, Aberdeenshire, Lanarkshire, Sutherland, Orkney, Perthshire, etc...

    Each county in England and Scotland has cities, and each city has a separate borough in it...lets take London.

    London: Fulham and Hammersmith, Kensington(South, North, East and West-all separate), City of London, Southwark, Lambeth, Wandsworth, etc...

    In all honesty, I don't think a lot of folks outside the UK have any clue what comprises the UK. To many, the UK means England.
    For that matter, many US citizens can't tell you the names of the states.

    Yep.

    But I've discovered on here, when some people say the 'UK' they generally mean England. And people talk about a 'British accent'. Believe me, they're bloody different.

    I didn't think N Ireland was part of UK or GB dosn't it have its on parliament like the I.O.M and the Channel Isles which would make it a dependency I think?
    Appologies
    It should be GB and N Ireland or the United Kingdom (so I've been told)

    Not many people living in Scotland would refer to their country as the UK. I don`t know about the rest of the country.

    I think most people would just say that to avoid confusion and make it easier to understand where they come from.
