Scotland is a so-called "constituent country" of the UK.

But it's not a country by UN definition.

Scotland is absolutely part of the United Kingdom. "Country" in the modern context typically is meant to mean "independent state", however the word is also the name of the first level subdivisions of the United Kingdom, which is where some confusion arises. So while Scotland may be a "country", it is not an independent state and has not been in at least 300 years.

IT LITERIALLY SAYS IT ON THE TOP AND YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE IT. ALSO, IF YOU DO COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD, IT LITERALLY SAYS STUFF LIKE WALES AND ENGLAND AND SCOTLAND ARE NOT CONSIDERED AS SOVERIGN NATIONS! sorry for the caps by the way

this was such a challenge to me especially because my first language is portuguese and the majority of countries that start with S doesnt match the english version. For instance all the ''south something'' in portuguese is '«something of south'', as well as countries like Spain-eSpanha, Slovakia-eSlováquia, Slovenia-eSlovénia... Still got 22/26 tho. cool quiz
