Best Answer

Yes and no. England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are the countries which together make up the United Kingdom and the people of these places are regarded as British in international law and would travel on a British passport. However, the people of these individual places might describe themselves as being English, Scottish, Welsh or Irish. The United Kingdom government is in London and the constituents of all of these places are represented by their own Member of Parliament. However, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland also have their own legislative bodies and are able to legislate on most things except for foreign, military and economic policy. Their status is similar to individual States within the United States.
England, Scotland and Wales, along with Northern Ireland are all countries in their own right which also exist as part of the country known as the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly shortened to just the United Kingdom or UK.
