So what would you call S/E/NI/W then?

And don't give me that "sub-countries" crap, because there's no such thing.

And heh.

N(i)/S/E/W

Compass points.

Well that is stupid. If it is one country, why don't they all accept the money each region uses? The English don't except Sterling and if Northern Ireland is the same country, why not? It's a stupid system. Therefore as far as I am concerned I have been to 6 countries.

Did you need a passport to go between England and Scotland? Didn't think so because you never leave the country. *nods head* This isn't a dig at you in any way by the way just using you as an example heh. Sorry but thanks :)

That's another point, Scotland wants to become and INDEPENDANT country. Seperated from the rest of the UK with our own government and so on. We wouldn't have to become independant if we were a stand alone country of our own.

Yes one government which speaks for all of us as one. I don't see what difficulty you're having with this. They don't say "Our countries want this..." and so on, Scotland/England/Northern Ireland and Wales don't get seperate votes like any other stand alone country with their own government would. Politically we get one vote to speak for all of us because we are one and the same. Although Scotland is trying to become and Independant country.

No, it isn't why at all.
It is because the United Kingdom is run by a singular government.

That's what I said in one of my posts! I said the United Kingdom is classed as ONE country composed of four sub-countries if you will. They are countries of their own in some respects like we can send in our own football teams to compete in the World Cup but not the Olympics I'd like to point out because they class us as ONE Country too. But officially it is but one country according to the government.
