England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

[Mars_ax]

Yes the Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish are fiercely patriotic and would rightly be offended as being described as English. Just as you are proud to be a Texan but also American, but would probably not liked to be refered to as Californian but times a hundred in the case of the Welsh and Northern Irish and times a million for the Scottish.


As an Englishman I totally agree with and understand their inferiority complex.:-P

I doubt if anyone would confuse me with being from California, but since i'm from Texas, which is part of the Southern U.S. I might take exception at being called a "Yankee" (someone from the North or North-East U.S.
I can understand the Northern Irish taking exception to being called English/British, but I never realized someone from Wales or Scotland would.
