What is Great Britain? The UK?

What is the difference between Wales, Scotland, England, and Northern Ireland.

What are the British Isles?

Why does the Currency in Canada have a picture of the Queen?

All of these answers can be summed up in this short lesson.

a really good summary!
we live in the Isle of Man, and its very difficult trying to explain, even to the English/British, that our little island is not part of the UK or of Britain or of the EU, but still has the Queen as Head of State and still "belongs" in all sorts of complicated ways to the UK, Britain and the EU!!
thinking about it, its hard trying to explain it even to my own kids!

This was great. I knew most of the major things, but good to have it all mapped out, as it were. Thanks Billy!

Excellent! Although I wish the narrator would speak a bit more slowly. That is a lot of information to digest ...

This video came in handy. You see my son is marketing ads over the net and he was annoyed that some of his ads were running in Northern Ireland. He requested the UK.

Well I went on to explain that N. Ireland is part of the UK, and had him watch the lesson.

How convenient.

Now he runs this ads in Scotland, Wales, and England.
