Did you know that the UK isn't England?

Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

Did you know the UK isn't just England?

Yes - I knew a Brit is not necessarily English person, and I shouldn't refer to the UK as England.

No - I thought the UK was just England and English people, and it makes no difference to call it England and miss out the other THREE countries.

I just explained this to someone, then they just referred to England again! :facepalm: I guess it must be my poor explanation, or a lack of basic geography. I'd like to find out. Please vote.

I blame a lot of websites and official forms that offer "United Kingdom" as a country and nationality.
