The United Kingdom consists of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland and sometimes the Falkland Islands and Gibraltar and other British dependancies are included.
Great Britain consists of the British mainland countries - Scotland, England and Wales.
England is the country of England - which means not Scotland or Wales of any of the others.
The British Isles consists of England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, The republic of Ireland, The Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, the northern Isles, and the Herbrides.
The Commonwealth of Nations (formerly the British Commonwealth) consists primarily of countries that were part of the British Empire, with a few others. Such member countries include Canada and Australia, both of which still have the Queen as their head of state (i.e. they don't have a president), independant countries such as India and Kenya, some countries which never had British rule such as Mozambique (Norway wanted to join at one point) - but some countries once part of the British Empire that are eligable to join chose not to, such as Egypt, Iraq and the 13 British-American states. Some countries were once members and are no longer are Ireland and Zimbabwe.

There are purely 2 names for the united kingdom. yet they have distinctive definitions! a million. uk. (inclusive of great Britain & Northern eire.) 2. great Britain. (inclusive of England, Wales & Scotland.) hence, being British ability which you're a citizen of the united kingdom, jointly as being English ability which you come from England - even with the actuality that it is not a legally recognized nationality in recent times. Britain = The call is derived from Brittania, which the Romans used for the part of the island that they occupied. uk = what was once 4 separate international locations - or Kingdoms - have been joined by stress to be below the rule of the Monarch of purely a sort of four international locations, England. They have been 'united' in regulation, into one 'Kingdom', so as that they grew to become the 'uk.'

United Kingdom is all the countries in that particular area eg England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales.
Great Britain is the commonwealth countries of the UK, therefore Northern Ireland and not the Republic of Ireland.
England is just the country.
