Ce acoperă acest capitol

The UK is made up of four countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The official (full) name of the country is "the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland".
"Great Britain" refers ONLY to England, Scotland and Wales — it does NOT include Northern Ireland.

The Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are Crown dependencies: closely linked with the UK but NOT part of it.
Crown dependencies have their own governments and are not represented in the UK Parliament.
The UK also has several British overseas territories in other parts of the world, for example St Helena and the Falkland Islands.
