Why is there no England, Scotland etc. option in country options on every site ever

[iron codpiece]

Okay seriously you all need to stop whining. My soverign nation gets fucking dick from anyone. The only maps we're on is local maps. I was raised with little to no plumbing and electricity until I was about 10. Most people don't even recognize our right to govern ourselves and there is definitly NEVER EVER a 'native reservation option' on anything. I can't even get a passport without jumping through massive hoops. in summation, boo effing hoo.

I do believe you just pulled 'ye olde native guilt' my old friend. A feeling I'm sure the British are completely unused to. Bravo. Bravo.

I hope you're aware of the irony of that statement.

I was only partially aware of the irony, it's quite scary in it's full view.

They all speak English, right?

Actually they Speak English, Welsh and Gaelic, there's plenty of Welsh people that can't speak English.

There's Welsh people who can't speak English? I think that might be a tad wrong.

No it's entirely true.

They tend to be older people, but go to most small towns in North Wales and Anglesey and there'll be people who only speak Welsh. I've discovered this to my cost a few times.

Actually, them up North speak Irish (Gaeilge), and them in Scotland speak Scottish (Gàidhlig, and I'd like to know how that differs from the Irish pronounciation). Also, yes, there are people that speak nothing but Irish, mostly in the Gaeltacht region in western Ireland (Galway and Kerry).

Also, consider yourself lucky you're listed. Ireland is rarely listed, and when it is it's under UK and Ireland, and the offices are in England. Or it's listed as Eire (it should be Éire; minor gripe, but still. Amusingly, while Éire means Ireland, the description of Ireland, according to Wiki, is Poblacht na hÉireann, or Republic of Ireland. I was a bit confused, since Éireann is used in the Irish language much more than Éire. In fact, I've never heard Éire said in Irish).

To keep on-topic, I'd say that you have a fair point: Scotland and Wales are mostly self-governing, as is Northern Ireland now (last I'd checked, that was the purpose of Stormont). The Laws of the United Kingdom can be considered more like the laws of the EU.

Do you know anything of British history? Most of the countries don't want to be associated with each other, they've been invasions over it and everything.

Of course I know, I am half-British after all, but the past is the past, and should be left go. All of them are better of being British anyway. United we stand,divided we fall.

There is no place for this petty and divisive nationalism in the 21st century.

Theres no room for crappy monarchism aswell which as a member of one of those 4 countrys i dont want your own "petty" nationalism enforced on me aswell, the act of union is centurys old and was passed by the British with no say from any of those countries involved in it but England does seem to have too have its hands crowbar-ed of former territories(india for example only got its independce in 1947)

 

[Pillypill]

Well the Uk has one leader, well 2, scotland has it's own leader (he's just as useless as Brown) i think it may have something to do with promoting the whole being british over irish or english thing.

déan mar a dhéanaimse an fear seo folláin is maith liom Béarla? a ionraic smaoinigh gan mhoill. now that was an example of another language spoken in the British isles.

Semantics only matter when the entire subject actually matters.

Hi, I'm from the western hemisphere.

 

[Kedcom]

Why? Do you realize how stupid this is? Don't you realize your one big fucking country all together?

Frankly, I find the petty squabling between you guys pathetic. Enough with the fucking divides and other stupid shit. How are we supposed to go along preaching the values of tolerance and fraternity between the various people of the world when there's people like you who don't even identify as British? You make me sick.

And no, they're not individual countries.

You'd make a fine diplomat sir....

 

[Kedcom]

I'd call myself British rather than English.

I don't really know why, just sounds a bit better.

I do exactly the same thing. I say i'm British rather than english, heres a piece of cake.

"Cake or death!".... "Um... cake please"

So how come Canada, Australia and the US aren't all lumped in with us as well?
