Britain is England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland (ruled as (generally) one country. England is just one country within the government, like the United Arab Emirates

Great Britain includes the countries of England, Scotland and Wales. So the difference is that England is just one PART of Britain. If you add Northern Ireland into that group, you have what is known as the United Kingdom. It's all in which countries you're talking about.

Great Britain to my understanding includes Scotland and Ireland, it is the whole island. England is the country that shares the island with Scotland and Ireland which are now separate countries, but at one time were under English rule. Now that they've been separated, we just now use Britain as interchangeable with England (though in essence Britain no longer exists).

Britain is the entire island, including England, Scotland and Wales.
The Official name of the UK is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The Island of Ireland is part of the "British Isles" but only Northern Ireland is part of the UK.
Ireland is a separate independent country.
