Answer 5

United Kingdom - contains Northern Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales.

Great Britain - contains Scotland, England and Wales.

England - contains a whole lot of crazy Englishmen

Should Northern Ireland ever rejoin the rest of Ireland, then the United Kingdom would cease to exist and we would all go back to calling what was left  as Great Britain.

Answer 7

United Kingdom is mnade up of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Great Britian is made up only of England, Scotland and Wales.

England, Scotland and Wales are countries in their own right.

Northern Ireland is basically an annexe of great Britain.

Answer 8

UNITED KINGDOM is comprised of England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. From the word itself, "United Kingdom". It is a union of 4 different countries to make up a single country.

GREAT BRITAIN is only comprised of England, Scotland, and Wales. Just that island alone. Northern Ireland does not belong to it because it's on the island of Ireland.

ENGLAND is just one of the constituent countries that make up Great Britain and/or United Kingdom.
