Ok Britainons...

Red pill me on the UK.

I'm tired of messing up and looking like a fool when I have a conversation in real life with a British person.

What constitutes a person to be British? Is it true that there is a City of London within the actual city of London? Is Wales a country? How big is it compared to England? Why does everyone hate Irish people? Where do the Scottish stand between the Irish and the British?

Which kingdom was the most powerful in British history?? Does the queen still have actual power even though she may be paraded off of tradition?
>>
>>81348975
Wales isn't a country, more of a myth from the merlin and King author stories. There is a small place in West England called Wales though, it's basically a small sheep producing village, not quite big or relevant enough to be called a city.
Irish people are the fucking worst that's why we hate them. Fucking IRA terrorist attacks on Britain and shit.
Scottish are alright though, kinda irrelevant.

As recent expat (aka migrant) from US to Europe, I'll give my fellow Burgers a rundown:

Europe is not like America. People here are intensely proud of their shit-little region. Imagine if everyone had the stick-up-their-ass attitude that Texans had, only instead of being proud of a big region like Texas, they are proud of a region the size of Delaware. That is all of Europe.

So you have the UK where nobody really thinks of themselves as British, because they are all proud of their tiny little sheep hamlet. People from Wales, which is literally a tiny little sheep hamlet, are intensely proud of the area. They even have their own language, that nobody really speaks, because it's completely useless. Doesn't mean they're not proud of it.

Same with Scotland.

Same with Ireland.

Same with every tiny little town in England. Heaven forbid you accidentally say someone is from York, when they're actually from Bumfuckshire, which is a town 15 minutes from York. Oh and a "town" in the UK is equivalent to a collection of houses in the middle of a farm field. Imagine the stereotypical "main street" USA, only 1/2 the size and much sadder, and you have all the towns in the UK.

Repeat this same petty attitude and behavior in France, Spain, Germany, etc, and you can see why Europe will never, ever compete with America.

She's not even the richest Briton.
There might be some Illuminati pyramid she's on but I'm just a pleb so not privy to such secrets.

In terms of visible power she doesn't have much beyond giving the seal of approval to the acts of parliament.
What might happen if she refused is only ever described as 'a constitutional crisis' no one knows what would happen.

Technically she is at the top of the pyramid but ever since the bill of rights, the power of the monarch has slowly be given over to parliament.

Mexicans lack public virtues and public obligations. They're half-catholic. Any moron can shout he's catholic and show off with crosses and such, but in Poland it is obvious that you can't be a catholic only in private, which is why Poland is still catholic and the corruption rate is systematically dropping and is already lower than in Spain or Italy

>What constitutes a person to be British?

to be born a citizen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. This includes dependent and overseas territories like the Isle of Man, Channel Islands and all those other tiny litle chunks of the British empire that still exist.

>Is it true that there is a City of London within the actual city of London?

Yes. The City of London is the original city, before all the small towns that existed along the river Thames merged together to become districts in a massive conurbation called London. It was a walled city that had been the financial centre of the British isles. It still has a semi-feudal and autonomous status in the unwritten British constitution, and it functions as massive offshore tax haven and micro-state for the world's finances.

>Is Wales a country?

It is a former country now considered a principality of England, (ie they don't have a King, but the heir to throne is the Prince of Wales by tradition, think Dorne in Game of Thrones) however Wales does have a distinct national identity of it's own, it's just been utterly crushed into submission by the English, more so than even the Scots and the Irish (despite what many think) This is why they don't have the Welsh Dragon on the Union Jack.

>How big is it compared to England

Read a map you lazy wanker

>Why does everyone hate Irish people?

They don't. There's been centuries of war and colonialism between the two countries, but on the whole they're very closely related cultures and peoples.

>Where do the Scottish stand between the Irish and the British?

Mixed. Some Scots have a sense of "celtic brotherhood" and shared oppression with the Irish, and Scottish Nationalists certainly sympathise with Irish republicanism, but at the same time Scotland did it's fair share of imperialism and pillaging in Ireland too, and a large chunk of the Northern Irish population is of Scottish Protestant heritage and are staunch British loyalists.

This Brexit has exposed the divide to the normies.
>>
>>81349227
>Which kingdom was the most powerful in British history??

Usually England, but it depends how far back you wanna go. Lots of different countries, empires, petty kingdoms, tribal fiefdoms and principalities have existed on this little chunk of land in the sea over the centuries. Prior to England for instance there was the "heptarchy" - five Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, where the biggest most powerful one would have suzerainty over the others and be "Lord of the Isles" or some such. Then we have the Danelaw period, a few hundred years of Danish and Viking occupation, where Yorkshire and Denmark effectively constituted a single proto-nation over the North Sea, which only ended after William the Conqueror united England in 1066 (which is "Birth of England" so to speak)

>Does the queen still have actual power even though she may be paraded off of tradition?

Yes, although she wisely only uses it sparingly. The constitution of Britain is unwritten and based on a deliberately confusing mess of conventions and unspoken assumptions. The tradition is that the Crown Powers are exercised by Parliament. There is a Sovereign, a privy council, a landed aristocracy with representation in the main parliament and whole structure of knights, yeoman, Anglican ministers and othersuch relics that formally hold power, but they exist in a sort of stalemate whereby they can kind their titles and property if they agree to defer to parliament. Despite this, they're not totally powerful, and there's probably the deepest "deep state" of any advanced industrial nation in the world, which is why our current constitutional and political crisis is so unusual in our history.

The union was always one of convenience. Not because we were friends.

Scotland fucked themselves up and ended looking to other countries for support.
England didn't want Scotland allying with France so they entered a union.
Wales was seized earlier on by the king of England and as far as I know, the idea behind Norn Ireland was to protect Irish Protestants or something.

>What constitutes a person to be British?
A kind of post-imperial self-loathing and disgust towards all displays of sincerity and overly emotional behaviour.
That and complaining about everything but never actually doing anything about it, which can be positively manifested in stoicism and stiff upper-lippedness but usually involves watching a tramp having a wank on the tube but thinking it would be rude to tell him to stop.

>A kind of post-imperial self-loathing

A post-imperial sense of denial and identity crisis about our declining global status is probably more accurate.
>>
>>81362774
Same, I see the whole thing as tactical. Wales was small enough, Scotland was larger and had had more value and Ireland had the most value as it was much larger so they shipped colonists over to take it over (also to stop Spain and other countries from using Ireland as an attacking area). That failed with Ireland getting independence and to stop Island violence; Northern Ireland was created.

However, Northern Ireland and Scotland are proving to be a huge pain to keep and Wales might as well be England 2.0.

The future should be interesting. Brexit needs to be sorted soon before people get restless.
