Not exactly. Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and England all form what is known as the "United Kingdom." On the other hand, "Great Britain" is another name for England. The country of Scotland is not in (or inside of) the country of England. Rather, Scotland borders England, but is a separate country, with its own capital. It has historical ties to England and used to share the same government (the British Parliament), but since 1999, Scotland now has its own parliament.
