1. Many people think that English is the same as British. It’s not. People who are English are from the country of England. On the other hand, British people are people who live in Great Britain and the UK. Although everyone on the UK has a British citizenship they have different nationalities. - England is only one of the three countries in Britain. The Scots and the Welsh sometimes get angry when they are referred to as English. They do not live in England and they have their own parliaments, so why should they take their identity from England? They have their own identity. There are often distinct differences between people living in each of the three countries in Britain. This is because different groups of people tend to develop their own customs and way of life. National identity and citizenship are not always the same things in Great Britain or the UK. Most people born in Great Britain, being British citizens, do not regard themselves as British and prefer to state their national identity as English, Scottish or Welsh.
