Which country includes England Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland?

Answer 1

No country consists of England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. The United Kingdom refers to England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, but does not include the Republic of Ireland. Ireland can refer to the island of Ireland, which includes the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, and it can also refer to just the Republic of Ireland.

Answer 2

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland more often called the United Kingdom (UK).

The political structure of The British Isles has changed several times through history and many people find this confusing - even some British people. There were originally four separate countries - England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland.

• In 1171 the King of England also became the King of Ireland - there were still four separate countries but the English King was king of two of them.

• In 1282 the King of England brought Wales under English rule.

• In 1603 King James VI of Scotland also became King of England, as James I. There were now three separate countries - England, which from the monarchy point of view included the Principality of Wales, Scotland and Ireland and James was separately King of each of them.

• In 1701 the crowns of England and Scotland were united as "Great Britain" and the Kingdom of Ireland remained separate.

• In 1801 the crown of Ireland was united and the country became "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland."

• In 1922, the southern part of Ireland became independent and is now The Republic of Ireland, the six countries of Northern Ireland remained a part of The United Kingdom giving the country its present title "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland."

Other terms which may add confusion to the situation include:

• "Ulster," which is sometimes used synonymously with "Northern Ireland," though only six of the region's nine counties are part of the UK.

• The "British Isles," which refers to the the entirety of both islands that Ireland as well as the UK occupy, and is thus considered politically incorrect in every sense of the term.

• The "Emerald Isle," which is a rather poetic term for the island on which both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland stand.

Although Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man have their own parliamentary assemblies, they do not have total autonomy; they are responsible to the parliament of Westminster.

Answer 3

the republic of Ireland is an independent country and has no political affiliation with the united kingdom.

the united kingdom comprises of England Wales and Scotland

Northern Ireland is part of the UK but as it is not connected to mainland GB, you may find the state (the UK as a whole) as "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland". Do not try to tell anyone from Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland that their country is not a country, in fact, due to extremely differing views it's safer to avoid mentioning it.

Answer 4

No Country consists of England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and The Republic of Ireland. The Republic of Ireland is an independent country. What you may be looking for is the "United Kingdom" which is made up of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

The Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland are on the island of Ireland. England, Scotland, Wales are on the island of Great Britain. The British Isles is the geographical name sometimes given for the two islands collectively.

Answer 5

There is no country that fits that description. You are making a common confusion. Britain is an island, containing England, Scotland and Wales. Britain is not a nation. Northern Ireland is on a separate island, being part of the island of Ireland. Britain and Northern Ireland together are known as the United Kingdom, which is a nation, but it is not an island nation.

Answer 6

The United Kingdom is comprised of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The Republic of Ireland is a separate country.

Answer 7

Answer 8

No island includes those. England, Scotland and Wales are on the island of Britain. Northern Ireland is on the neighbouring island of Ireland.

Answer 9

The United Kingdom
