In case you've ever wondered the difference between England, Great Britain, the British Isles and the United Kingdom, here is an interesting Venn diagram I ran across explaining it:
Had they fiddled with the Irish dots just a little bit, it would fit geographically, as well.
ObMath Content: This diagram reminds me of the Quadrilaterals Venn diagram in that the intersection of U.K. and Ireland being Northern Ireland is similar to the intersection of a rectangle and a rhombus is a square. Whether Ireland is either rectangle or rhombus is left as an exercise for the reader.
