Yes, it is. It is made up of the island of Great Britain and Northern Island. Great Britain consists of England, Scotland, and Wales. Northern Island, Scotland, and Wales have devolved self-governments with varying powers based in their own capitals (Belfast, Edinburgh, and Cardiff, respectively).
The United Kingdom as a whole is a country and sovereign state; England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Island are regarded as "countries within a country" - countries (or regions) on their own, but not sovereign states. The United Kingdom is a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system; its capital is London, England.
