Northern Ireland (Ulster) is one of the four provinces of Ireland - the other three form the Republic of Ireland. Thus it is not a country. Scotland, England and Ireland are countries. The union of which is the United Kingdom (of Great Britain and Northern Ireland if we are being that pedantic). Now go and get a clue!Speaking of Erith:

Northern Ireland has been designated as a constituent country of the United Kingdom (or so Wikipedia tells me), and if Northern Ireland has unique geography, it is a country in the geographic sense. Wales is also a constituent country.
Scotland has unique geography, and is thus definitely a country. I'm not sure about England and Wales (though together they would make up a country), though, since I am teh ignorant about teh geography of the UK.
The state titled "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" is a sovereign state, one that could be described as a "union" of sorts (though I'm not sure as to the specific legal existence of England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland and thus I'm not sure if "union" is so appropriate)
Northern Ireland is partitioned between two or more nations, Ireland as an island is inhabited by two or more nations, and also two states (those states being the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in addition to the Republic of Ireland)Comment

Well, Wales is technically a principality

However if you do want to argue the toss about British geography, I will oblige...Speaking of Erith:

Why does this poll include Belgium but not Albania?
Anyway, Britain? Germany?? I'm shocked. Even Lithuania received two votes?
I was between voting for a Scandinavian nation and Spain, and finally voted for Sweden. France would be great too, if just the French didn't live there.
I haven't been to Ireland yet, but I guess I could love that country too.

I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment
