“I wish Americans would understand what Britain is and what being British means.”
Well, tell us, then. You have the floor.
Simply, Britain is not the same as England. Which most of the world thinks.
Britain is a state made up of England, Scotland, Wales. Along with Northern Ireland. So I can be, and be proud to be, Scottish and British and they arent mutually exclusive. As a sidenote, Scotland joined the UK/British state, it wasnt conquered into it by England.
