Other way round- Great Britain refers to the Unions between England and Wales, and England and Scotland. Although Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom, it is not included in Great Britain. The term 'Great' was coined when Britain began to develop an Empire and to colonise and rule large parts of the rest of the world.
