There's a significant amount more tension though between countries of the UK and states of the USA though.

what's the difference between british and english?

but yeah either british or english lol

UGH. This really bugs me:

Just now did 2 questionnaires and they both say "What country do you live in..."

It had NO selection for England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Island or various other British Islands - just "United Kingdom". I'm sorry but if they're going to phrase the question like that, they have to list the countries because the "United Kingdom" is not a country, it is a sub-continent type thing.

Plus I don't like to think of it as "United Kingdom" because of the cultural differences.

cultural differences? what do we all celebrate different religions, have different festivals, different heads of state etc? I don't really think that makes sense. Britain is all the same from the outside tbh.

Special: to be british is to come from britain ie any of the four countries in the UK.
to be english is to be english? from england?

I've always considered myself as English.

There are signifigant cultural differences, although less I will say with one another as compared with the continent for example.

This applies from town to town from city to city, from county to county, from region to region, from country to country and from continant to continant. Depends what the argument is over I guess.
