Since 1922, the United Kingdom has been made up of four countries: England, Scotland, Wales (which collectively make up Great Britain) and Northern Ireland (variously described as a country, province, jurisdiction or region).

About five-sixths of the island of Ireland seceded from the United Kingdom in 1922 as the Irish Free State.
