Geography

As a teacher of geography, this graphic makes perfect sense to me. Many people think Great Britain and England are the same place. They're not. Many people think Ireland and Northern Ireland are simply regions of the same country. They're not. Most people either have no idea what the United Kingdom is or think it's synonymous with England. That's not true. And the British Isles? Oh brother! Don't even get me started! Admittedly this is a confusing geographical set up. However, with a little bit of simply paying attention to the world around you, the whole situation is fairly simple to understand.
