26 of the 32 counties in Ireland are part of an independent state called the Republic of Ireland. The other 6 counties (which are still occupied by British forces), plus Britain, make up the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Within the UK, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales each have a devolved government. England does not All four are ruled overall by the UK Government, the UK being a constitutional monarchy ruled by the British Prime Minister in the name of the British monarch. The Republic of Ireland, in contrast, is a multiparty republic. It is ruled by the elected government, whose leaders are the Taoiseach and the President of Ireland.

There isn't a difference really. They are all integral parts of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The people of all four are British and would travel on a British passport. However, people born within the four places might refer to themselves as being English, Scottish, Welsh or Irish and they do have local cultural differences. For example there is significant use of the Welsh language in Wales.

It is a different country, so naturally Ireland differs from England, Scotland, Wales and France. All of those countries differ from each other in many ways, such as culture, traditions, language, history and many, many other ways.

They are very similar geographically. Politically, Ireland is an independent republic and Scotland is part of the United Kingdom.
