Are Scotland and Wales really their own countries or are they more countries in name/history only?
I've always got the impression that the UK was the "country" as a "country" is defined by most of the world.

most black folk even asians dont see themselves as English , its always British ......
most people see English people as having a specific white anglo saxon background, to be honest only time I can recall non white people refer to themselves as English is when they are playing for the national football team
English is a specific culture, while being British isnt so much..... I know to most people that wont make sense
Is this the same fukkin place or 4 different cities

Hmm... So the whites there get to refer themselves as the Nationals of their individual countries ie English, Welsh, Scottish, etc meanwhile all other ethnicities get lumped together as British.
Do whites ever refer to themselves as British?
op is really fighting stereotypes about Americans with this threadbro its like you didnt read what I said
most black people in the UK do not self identify as English... has nothing to do with what white people think but its to do with how they see themselves
Why are you an African American and not just an American ???
Do you get it now??


I'm Canadian, Somali, or Somali-Canadian.
This self identification business in the UK is just new to me breh![]()
