It is one kingdom, which consists of 4 countries. 3 of them are on the island of Britain. They are England, Scotland and Wales. Historically they have a close connection. Ireland was once part of the United Kingdom, but in 1922 Northern Ireland came into existence and stayed part of the United Kingdom, while the rest of Ireland became independent.
