LONDON IS NOT A COUNTRY
Most people think London is a Country of it’s own .. That’s not true. London is the capital of England UK 🇬🇧 and there are four countries in the UK with each having their capitals.
Some often confuse England, United Kingdom and Great Britain.
England is a country just like Kenya and its capital is London just like Nairobi is the capital of Kenya
Great Britain is a collection of 3 countries which came together as one country and has its capital as London. Those 3 countries are:
1. England,
2. Scotland
3. Wales.
When you include Northern Ireland to these 3 countries, they become United Kingdom (Union of four nations)
1. England,
2. Scotland,
3. Wales, and
4. Northern Ireland.
That is why it is referred to as the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Collectively, the four are taken as one country. London is its capital.
These four individual nations all have their own respective capitals.
Accordingly, the capital of
Scotland is Edinburgh,
Wales is Cardiff;
Northern Ireland is Belfast.
England is London.
