The United Kingdom is a country of four sovereign nations: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
England is the largest and most populous of the nations and contains the capital city, London.
Scotland is to the north, Wales to the west, and Northern Ireland to the northeast.
Each country has its own population term, and the people do not generally consider themselves "British."
The United Kingdom is not a single country but a country of countries, with its own full name being the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Great Britain is a geographical term referring to the largest island in the British Isles, which includes England, Scotland, and Wales.

The former colonies that gained independence through diplomacy and recognize the Monarchy as the Head of State are known as the Commonwealth Realm.

Gibraltar is a tiny city on the southern coast of Spain that is a British Overseas Territory, as are the Falkland Islands, which caused tension between the United Kingdom and Argentina.
British Overseas Territories are the last vestiges of the British Empire and rely on the United Kingdom for military and economic assistance.
