[lace] "Buddy map"

[Jean Nathan]

One thing wrong with the map, the United Kingdom is just shown as England. 
England is part of the United Kingdom (of Great Britain and Northern 
Ireland). Northern Ireland (shown as the blue bit on the Irish mainland) 
isn't part of England. Wales which is the second bit sticking out of the 
British mainland isn't part of England, and Scotland, which is the bit from 
about the top of Northern Ireland upwards and most of the islands above it, 
isn't England either. There are four kingdoms, England, Wales, Scotland and 
Northern Ireland which make up the United Kingdom. Tell someone in Wales, 
there're part of England and don't hang around for the reaction. It's like 
saying that the USA is Canada and Canda is the USA.
