Thread Name: BS: Great Britain or United Kingdom - which?
Subject: RE: BS: Great Britain or United Kingdom - which?
" Good" yes

But " Great " ...doubtful

I prefer the affectionate " Albion"

Although " Northtralia" sounds better by the minute

Re: Northern Ireland and Great Britain
If a country controls an island off its coast does that mean the country should have " great" in its name ? If so, we should have Great Norway , Great America, Great Australia etc etc

Great Scott!
