England IS a country. If you refuse to include it because it's a part of the socio-economic union that is the United Kingdom, then you cannot include France, Germany, Spain or any of the other EU members as countries, as the EU is also a socio-economic union.

Oh please! England has not been an independent sovereign country in its own right since 1707. England is part of the United Kingdom. It really is quite sad how many people from the UK don't understand how the UK is constituted - this is basic stuff.

Got them all, again, with 17 seconds left between 9:44 and 9:46 PM on February 21, 2019. Equatorial Guinea was the last one I typed in. Eswatini was one of the first I typed, not surprising since the change was so recent.

"Eswatini (Swazi: eSwatini [ɛswa̯ˈtiːni]), officially the Kingdom of Eswatini (Swazi: Umbuso weSwatini) and also known as Swaziland, is a landlocked country in Southern Africa. It is bordered by Mozambique to its northeast and South Africa to its north, west and south."

I would argue that "El Salvador" should be classed as beginning with S, not E. You don't class the United Kingdom as beginning with "T", for example, do you?

Re UK - no you don’t, because The is not part of its official name. Whereas El is a part of El Salvador’s. Fortunate that Washington follows UK’s example, otherwise 328 million people would live in the Trumpian nation of TUSOA.

I applaud jetpunk for using Eswatini, which is the Swazi name for the country known in English as Swaziland, since the country has requested to be henceforth referred to by that name in international institutions. At some point, you'll have to explain to me why the same logic doesn't apply to Côte d'Ivoire.

Can anyone please tell me why England is never accepted as a separate country on here. It’s always United Kingdom. United Kingdom is made up of four countries..England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. It’s a bit of an insult saying United Kingdom is one country.

When the word "country" is used on this website, it probably means "sovereign state"; the UK is a sovereign state that the countries England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales are a part of.
