Better or worse than 51st State? I'm going better, because at least the Queen is their "head of state."

The trick isn't to break some eggs to make an omelette, it's convincing the eggs to break themselves in order to aspire to omelettehood.Comment

Didn't it used to be part of the UK? The first time I was there was in the 70s, when I was just a kid.Originally posted by Asmodean

I am no geography expert, but it seems to me that this thread has generated some confusion, as to what constitutes the UK, and what is just Commonwealth

Well yeah, but so were we...
edit: crosspost. Yeah, the Commonwealth is another matter. It's the UK + a bunch of ex-colonies.

It never was a part of the UK. UK consist of Scotland, England and Wales. Ireland was later added, but then the title was "UK and Ireland" IIUC.Originally posted by Lord Avalon

Dauphin, like your list I do!
Mine is from the top of the head so few is left out by mistake:
Sweden
Russia
Norway
US
Estonia
Canada
Belgium
Luxembourg
Netherlands
England
Austria
Spain
Greece
Germany
Switzerland
Italy
Malta
Israel
Egypt
Anyway, I'm still planning to travel through South America, from Mexico to Argentine by some other method of transport than airplane, taking my time.
Another trip is going to be SEA, this is the one I'll get to do next and if I'm going to live in Singapore (it seems so now), I'll be able to travel the nearby countries so... looking forward to that. So then I can do my SEA tour, but then I'd love to also spend at least a month in India. Then I'd like to see China and Japan extensively. Then after that, I'll have to see my favourite places again and spend time or go to the next continent, Africa!In da butt.

UK = United Kingdom of Great Britain (i.e. England, Scotland & Wales) and Northern Ireland.
...okay, and maybe the Isle of Mann.
...and those other islands.Comment

The kingdoms that were united were.....[fill in the blank].
What you want to call the UK is upto you though. Its definition surely changes over time and depending on who you ask.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment
