England is part of Great Britain. The other two parts are Scotland and Wales. When Northern Ireland is added, the country then gets its full name of 'The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland' - which is how it is represented at the United Nations in New York. The people of these four places are British in international law, although they might describe themselves as being English, Scottish, Welsh or Irish. The status of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland is roughly similar to individual States within the United States. They have their own legislative bodies and are able to legislate on most things except for foreign, military and economic policy - which is dealt with by the UK parliament in London.
