It doesn't. England is one of the countries which make up "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland." The other two countries that make up Great Britain are Wales and Scotland. The British Isles consist of Great Britain (England, Wales, Scotland), Northern Ireland, The Republic of Ireland (an independent country) and many other smaller islands like the Channel Islands or Jersey and Guernsey amongst others, and the isle of Man, which is not part of Great Britain, but a British Protectorate To say "England" when you really mean "The United Kingdom" can be offensive to some British people - it's like saying "Texas" when you really mean "The US"
