Absolutely NOT ! They're not even part of the same land mass !
No land mass borders Britain on the west. The Atlantic Ocean is immediately to the west of Britain. The closest land to the west of Great Britain is the top northeastern tip of the United States: the state of Maine, in particular.
Britain is about 229,848 square kilometres or 88,744.8 square miles. Ireland is not part of Britain so it would not be included. It is a completely separate island. Ireland is about 84,421 square kilometres or 32,595.1 square miles. So Ireland and Britain are about 314,269 square kilometres or 121,339.9 square miles.
No
Nobody 'invented' Britain ! It was originally part of the European land mass, but was isolated when sea levels rose.
Great Britain England and Wales form Britian. In 1707 Scotland joind with Britain to form Great Britain. Great that is in land mass, not in political power like all you Yanks think. After the Irish war of Independence in the 1920s Northern Ireland was joined with Great Britain to form the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is often refered to as the United KIngdom - not sure what else it could be called.

The UK and Great Britain are not actually part of a continent. They're off the western coast of Europe - but are not actually part of the land mass. Great Britain - is one island - in the group of approximately 1,000 islands that makes up the United Kingdom
No, they are separate countries that share one land mass.
No. Austria is an independent country on the main land mass of the continent of Europe.
I believe that when the meteor that destroyed the dinosaurs hit the earth, the destruction of the dinosaurs was not the only effect. It also caused the separation of the large land mass to separate by creating a weakness in the land mass that allowed the tectonic plates to shift and move slowly over millions of years.
Northern Ireland has never been part of Great Britain. Great Britain is an island consisting of Wales, England and Scotland. Northern Ireland is on the island of Ireland which is a completely separate island. Northern Ireland, along with England, Scotland and Wales, are together known as the United Kingdom, which is probably what you are referring to. So Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom, but not part of Great Britain.
