And then being from England being constantly guessing because I have no idea whether the drop down is going to list England, United Kingdom, Great Britain, or what.
Each of which refer to actually different geographical regions, but okay.
Y'all should just rename your country to Greated Kingland and make life easier for everyone
The country is called the United Kingdom, the island is called Great Britain, the group of islands including Ireland (the island) and Great Britain is called the British Isles, and England is one of the constituent countries of the UK
To make it even more confusing, some languages, like Polish, call the United Kingdom the equivalent of "Great Britain"
True, someone always had it worse
