    • YES

    • NO

    Correct Answer
    A. NO
    Explanation
    The statement "Great Britain and the United Kingdom are the same concepts" is incorrect. While Great Britain refers to the island that includes England, Scotland, and Wales, the United Kingdom includes Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Therefore, the United Kingdom is a broader concept that encompasses more territories than Great Britain alone.

    What’s the difference between GB and the UK?

    • UK is a geographical entity

    • UK is a political entity

    Correct Answer
    A. UK is a political entity
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that the UK is a political entity. This means that the UK is a country that is defined by its political structure and governance. It is made up of four constituent countries (England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland) that have their own devolved powers, but are ultimately governed by the UK Parliament in London. The term "GB" refers to Great Britain, which is a geographical entity consisting of the island that includes England, Scotland, and Wales. However, it does not include Northern Ireland, which is part of the UK. Therefore, the difference between GB and the UK lies in their political and geographical definitions.

    British Overseas Territories are all independent countries.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false. British Overseas Territories are not independent countries. They are territories or dependencies of the United Kingdom and are under its jurisdiction. While they have a degree of internal self-government, they are ultimately governed by the UK. Examples of British Overseas Territories include Bermuda, Gibraltar, and the Falkland Islands.

    Rate this question:

  • 8.

  • 9. 

    Name one of these British Territories in Europe.
