UK as the name implies is the almagamation of different countries, with same ideas.it comprises of England, Wales,Scotland and Northern Ireland.According to (http://www.studentsoftheworld/ info/sites/countries/christopher php), three consistent countries england, scotland,and wales. the province of northern ireland forms the united kingdom principal international land border.
In the uk, it is difficult to use the term britishness to discribe the general people,because the countries has different cultures,traditions and languages for communication.According to (www.kwintessential.co.uk/resources/global-ettique/uk.html) there are lot of immigrants from other countries ,so with the diversity and mixture of the citizens, it is therefore difficult to define britishness. now debates has been on as to the criteria of been a briton.many people have settled in uk, and with them been citizens, it will be difficult to draw a line between the main britons and the settled immigrants, who are mostly from india, pakistan,and the west indies.
