What is Britain?

Great Britain = England + Scotland + Wales
The United Kingdom = Great Britain + Northern Ireland
Britain= United Kingdom
TADA

problem solved
 
**** yeah!

Here is the shindig guys and gals.

Yuo can call (almost) anyone from England, Scotland and Wales British and they won't have any problem with that. It could cause you trouble if you call someone from Northern Ireland British if they see themselves as Irish.

However if you call someone from Scotland and Wales English, well then that is going to get you in a whole load of trouble. Just because I am from Britain doesn't mean I am English, I am in fact Welsh.

Dekstar, Evo and Samon- standing up for their rights! You go, you freaky little people from the valleys!
 
Sooo....what's so Great about Britain?
 
not GREAT BRITAIN
Just Britain
they took out the word great and added northern ireland :(
 
Q: What can you add to something to make it less great?

A: Northern Ireland!
 
they took out the word great and added northern ireland :(
... And Gibralter, Cayman Islands, Bermuda Islands, Falkland Islands, Montserrat etc. etc.
 
Britain is where the best of the human race is sent when they are ready to be born.
 
... And Gibralter, Cayman Islands, Bermuda Islands, Falkland Islands, Montserrat etc. etc.

And lost India, Sudan, Somalia, Pakistan, Kenya, Nigeria, Libya, Egypt, Australia and a lot of others. And yet, you guys chose to make a fuss over the Falklands...
 
In Britian, when you want to buy a pet, you go to the pet shop. When you want to buy a pet shop, you go to the pet shop shop. But if you want to a buy a pet shop shop then that's just plain silly!

Actually we were talking about the terms rather than the history.
 
In Britain, tea, crumpets and scones are class A drugs. True story.
 
Oh and Gemma, the UK != Britain, but UK Citizenship = British. Oddly enough.

Ive never ever said 'great britain' when people ask where im from.

England would be the most common, then I throw in the South Africa side of me to lolwut them.

Cant help but think of Bill Bailey's line about the UK's national anthem.

''God save our gracious queen, why would we invoke a non-specific deity to bail out these unelected spongers, why would we do that...''

Sums it up really heh. Screw the queen...:)
 
when some one asks me where i am from i always say am from Great Britain then when they say where in Great Britain then i say Scotland.
 
Britain consists of:

England
Scotland
Wales
Northern Ireland
That weird tiny building island thing just off the coastline
And I think the Falkland Islands, I'm not sure :S

But I'm from England :D

EDIT: Sorry, I ment to say 'Best Country ever' my finger slipped...
