They're not? What are they then?

I think they are something between State and County in their status. It's really a big mess and I don't even think that any other country has same sort of system. Great Britain is the proper country, and the "countries" inside it are something else :D.

Actually thats wrong the United Kingdom is a proper country which is composed of England Scotland Wales, and Northern Ireland (the top right bit of Ireland next to us) and also out outlying islands around the coast.

Great Britain however is the main bit which includes basically everything but Northern Island which is over on the island of Ireland.

So to reiterate the United Kingdom is the proper country England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Island are constituent countries of that Union ;) then you get into complicated stuff with the isle of man and channel islands.

Then you get the Commonwealth Realms 16 countries for which our Queen is the Head of State, this includes Canada Austrailia and New Zealand to name a few of the more well known ones, so you'd see her at the olympic games opening the ceremonies as head of state, then theres the Commonwealth which is 53 nations including the previous 16 which is a voluntary organisation mostly composed of former British colonys :)

Whoops. Yeah, sorry about my mistake in the name, and lack of detail. It's been some time since we were taught these in school :D. But yeah, as I said, it's all a big mess that is totally unique in the world :D.
 



Holy crap the hive got active in the last hour! Damn Spore and it's addictive qualities.

So how far into the game are you :D? I played in the weekend it five times to the space phase with different tactics :D. Then I finally was happy with what my species turned into :D. The space phase is definetly the best part of the game. I'm so into terraforming the planets. Now I just got a terraforming tool that doesn't have limited "shots" so I don't need to gather money for the stuff anymore :D.
