Why is it when filling your address on line, when you come to the box for your country,?

Question

It's only UK. never England, Scotland, Ireland or Wales

I mean the box you scroll down

I mean Northern Ireland

Answer 1

maybe because instead of us all being individuals they want us tiobe a "united kingdom" ie all the same.

seriously though i don't know.

Answer 2

First of all..because it's the World Wide Web...so knowing the country can be important. Many people seem to forget people using the Web..or even Answers...are not local to our city, state or even country.

As far as the UK goes...here is more info. They do not necessarily have the total autonomy of separate countries.

Are Scotland, England, Wales, or Northern Ireland independent countries?
Scotland, England, Wales, and Northern Ireland are not independent countries but are four somewhat autonomous regions which are part of the country known as the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland or just United Kingdom for short.

Answer 3

The United Kingdom is the Official name of the Country. Each section is part of that.they are no longer recognized as separate countries by the rest of the world.

Hence why you travel under a United Kingdom Passport

Answer 4

its just bcoz, england, scotland, ireland and wales are the one that we called UK as in united kingdom, so the kingdom of england, scotland, ireland and wales become united as one. im not frm UK so correct me if im wrong.

Answer 6

I think you need to be more specific in your question because I'm not sure I understand what you are asking.

Of course you have to fill out which country you are in when filling out your address because the INTERnet is INTERnational. Okay?

Answer 7

Because we have one central registrar.

The more improtant question would be, why, on the 2001 census could you put your nationality as Scottish, Welsh, Irish, British or other

Answer 8

Because they are all classed as the same.. They can find out the exact country by the postcode.
