    Still can’t understand how some people think England is synonymous with the entire United Kingdom, when in reality it’s only a fraction of it.

      Probably because it’s the centerpiece of the whole UK?

      Probably because it’s the country that created Britain and the UK to begin with?

      It’s really not that confusing if you put even a little thought into it.

        Britain is the island and there have been Britons there since before the Romans showed up, England has only been a thing for around a millennium (though the Angles were around since before then)

        I suck at putting thoughts into things.
